Students in Introduction to Engineering Design have been using their skills learned in Computer-Aided Design to build a stand for their cell phone that allows the operator to watch it in landscape mode!
Students use a technique known as "parametric modeling" where dimensions are expressed as variables to be determined later, creating a model that can adapt to many different circumstances. In this case, the models were built without knowing the size of the phone to be mounted or the thickness of the material the stand would be built from. By using parametric modeling, students could quickly adapt their model from one phone to the next, or from 2 mm acrylic to 1/8 inch plywood!
Interested in learning more about building updates? In this short video, Superintendent Laurie Andries discusses recent building updates and plans.
