Career for Maker Faire

Career for Maker Faire

The Job that I would like to do in Maker Faire is is the art. Although I cannot draw I can throw out some amazing idea for the visualizations in the game. I am creative as some students and teacher would say. I am pretty confident I can come up with an idea that can astound the manager. Therefore here are just a few reasons that I can do art as an job.

    Geometry of Design

    Geometry of Design

    1)What are the various geometric shapes and how are they defined by their characteristics?

    The various shapes were very confusing at first to mostly work with inventor. The most difficult part of it was the star.It had taken me so long until Ms.L had shown the tutorial of how to do it.

    2) How are physical properties of objects used to define design requirements?

    The properties were quite strange at first. The size of the Shapes the size and how deep each corner is.


    3) What advantages do CAD programs provide over traditional paper and pencil design? What advantages does paper and pencil design provide over CAD?

    Cad model features are exact and the measurements are precise and do not mess up they are quite different than the rest. But pen and paper are very different you wouldn't get the exact measurement but you had traditional work that you can sign and date so that it belongs to you.

    Reverse Engineering: Automoblox

    Reverse Engineering 

    Reverse engineering the Automoblox this car was quite like other cars but it had a different amount of engineering just for certain parts. Some of the pieces were changeable and therefore it made me feel like a child again. This car was supposed to look like a race car and it did do that. It was made to make children happy the car actually looked childproof.

    Questions:
    1.The purpose of the car was to entertain children and it was also to copy a car.

    2) Visual

    3)There are little ridges at the end of the axle that stop the wheel      from falling off.
    B)My hypothesis was true
    C)The pieces fit together well and therefore didn't fall off.
    D) My hypothesis was correct.
    E)The ridge lets the car pull apart.
    F)The wheel had rubber on it to provide traction to the car.
    4) force
    Structural
    1)The point of it to do look like the original product but to be made differently.
    2)If i have to change it I would allow for different parts.

    Interviewing an engineer Jessica Pauly

    Jessica Pauly was a great engineer we had an interview with and it was very interesting to know what it is like to work there and how long they also have to work. It was a great help to know what people stress out for months on to get a aircraft into space. It was very cool to see firsthand what engineering does and its upsides to technology and the world. Making a cheap aircraft that works
