My Final Sketch |
Plan: Take the best of the original design and add some kind of container for wireless electronics
Ways to attached the finger to the rod
Time to CAD and 3-D printing!
These designs were done in Pro-E. I initially re-created the old design. Then I added the electronics container. But the container was UNCOMFORTABLE! Also I got the feedback to get rid of the foam since it's hard to clean.
I moved to Solidworks for the second half of the designing. The big challenge was that I had to find a good way to insert the potentiometer. This is why I removed the top to make a lid. Then attaching the strap came very naturally.
