Arduino Programming For Arduino Programming, my class was tasked to accomplish 2 things. Firstly, each of us had to complete an individual competency test, and also write a code that would make the wings of a unicorn flap, and a bonus task of combining the flapping with something else.  To start off, my group used an "Sweep" example code provided by the Arduino Software, then tweaked it a little. We changed the Servo's initial position to from 0 to 10 degrees , changed the sweeping angles to go from 10 to 120 degrees and changed the degree increase rate to steps of 10 degrees . We also changed the delay when rotating anti-clockwise to 25ms, and  15ms when rotating clockwise. At first, we set it to have a slower flapping speed, but it was too slow by our lecturer's standards, so we increased it after. Finalized Code can be downloaded  here Prototype Design of our Unicorn We ran into 2 main problems during the Arduino Practical. Firstly,  when we attempted to do the

Hello, I am Goh Wei Xue, a student of Singapore Polytechnic currently taking the Diploma In Chemical Engineering, and I'll be using this platform to share with everyone my first-hand experiences throughout the Chemical Product Design and Development Module. Let's go! 2 goals that I have set for myself The first goal that I have for myself would be to familiarize myself with the techniques and skills of CAD in Autodesk Fusion 360. I feel that I can utilize this platform to design and create many interesting results. Even though I may not be as masterful as my classmates, I hope that I can have enough practice to match their skill levels. With the aid of online tutorials such as Youtube videos and even other blogs, and more design practice including the keychain and phone stand that we have made, once I am able to easily navigate, design and construct, and an item using Fusion 360 shall I know that i have truly mastered the skill of utilizing Fusion 360 to the fullest.  The secon

Lesson For Week 2, we were introduced to the Laser Cutter. The laser cutter diagram that was shown in class  used a CO2 tube to produce a laser beam that is hot enough to cut through most materials. Inside the machine, 2 reflective mirrors would reflect the laser beams to a final mirror located in the Carriage. The laser is redirected through the focus lens to material to be cut. The carriage then moves around the material to cut the shapes/patterns that the user wants. Suitable materials for laser cutting would include: Wood of up to 6mm thick Acrylic of up to 5 mm thick Cardboard and Paper Unsuitable materials would be ones that had chlorine or PVC in them. We were also to observe the material closely to see if it was getting cut through. If the material was not getting cut through, we would have to stop the cutting process and check on the focus lens to see if it was dirty. Continued usage of the dirty lens would result in a cracked lens. After the Laser Cutter, we watched a video c
