  • Week 50 part 2

    As it is the final day, we think that one final Post is in order The Fenrir Howlizter Cannon is now almost at the stage of completion. We are waiting for some of the pieces to be 3d printed, but our core concept is done, and only need minuscule adjustments to be fully operational. The […]

  • Thirteenth and final sprint – Puck Buddies

    Gaute This is the final design that we landed on. There has been a lot of work put down in the process to get where we are now. A tremendous amount of hours in solidworks and many iterations on each part pays of when it comes to the end product. I have based the design […]

  • Week 50 part 1

    Summary: We went through some drastic changes, made big progress and are very close to completion #1 Cannon Design Changes, Daniel#2 Projectile calculations, David For many weeks now I have worked on the cannon with a flawed way of approach. The original concept was to make a cannon that could launch different types of projectiles. […]

  • Week 16 (07.12 – 13.12): Automatic watering system for plants

    Final Prototype: System Showcase: This is the final presentation video of our system with all its functionality. We did a recording before adding the cover, and after we mounted the cover the system wouldn’t work properly, unfortunately. Therefore, the final video presentation of the system will be without the cover attached. We feel that the […]

  • Week 15 (30.11-06.12): Automatic watering system for plants

    Software (Marius): Last night (Monday 30.11) I received the new design on the case for our system from Shadi. Since my 3D-printer is 150x150x150 mm, the case parts had to be divided into eight different parts to be able to print them. I started printing the first part of the case this morning (01.12). All […]

  • Week 13-14 (16.11 – 29.11): Automatic watering system for plants

    Mechanical (Shadi and Per-Terje): Week 13 : We assembled all the parts together and we discussed the ability to find a solution to print the surrounding case for the system, and we decided to divide the case into 8 parts to fit Marius printer workspace. week 14 : We started designing the new surrounding case […]

  • Tenth sprint – Puck Buddies

    Gaute This week I shifted the focus over to the 3D-printing process. We have quite a lot of parts that’s supposed to be 3D-printet so It’s nice to have a system to keep track on what’s been printed. Therefor I made a list over the parts that’s going to be printed and posted it on our Microsoft Teams channel so that both I […]

  • Week 47

    #1 This week we are working on further developing the tension based system.Now that we are closing in on the final weeks, the design is coming along. It will be a dual spring design, where a spring is connected too a new launch-plate The plate will be stabelized by 2 supporting beams which are integrated […]

  • Week 12 (09.11 – 15.11): Automatic watering system for plants

    Software (Marius): This week I have been working on some power savings features for our system. It seems to be several ways of doing this, and how much power can be reduced by using these methods seems questionable. Some of the methods I’ve looked into are: Using low-power libraries (Most of the libraries I’ve come […]

  • Ninth sprint – Puck Buddies

    Gaute 3D printed some of the assembly-blocks so I could verify that the measurements were correct, and they fitted perfectly. So for the coming week we can start printing full scale.  Halvard This week I have mostly been slicing and 3d- printing parts for the machine. This work is mostly passive work since most of the time is spent on the actual […]
