Mentor comments for 5/15/14[edit source]
- Page Description
- Good description overall. Although you may want to start the first sentence off with:
- "This capstone senior design project consisted of designing and constructing a system..."
- "The team was tasked with designing and constructing a system..."
- "The goal of project was to design and construct a system..."
- "The Clean Room Roomba project required a team of mechanical and electrical engineering students to design and construct a system..."
(Otherwise the intro paragraph feels like it drops you into some complicated design prompt from Junkyard Wars or Myth Busters )
- Clean Room Roomba
Project Statement
- Take this subsection out to avoid repeating the same information.
- Instead you could include a section on the Background of the project.
- Answer the sorts of questions that the uneducated reader might want to know. What is a Roomba (Possibly include a link to their website or wikipedia page)? Why does your client wants this? Why hasn't Roomba already made one of these themselves? What makes the project difficult or otherwise interesting?
- Project Description
- Design Goals
- Might want to mention that it must move autonomously though out it's environment for readers who aren't familiar with Roombas and have never watched a cat riding one on youtube.
- Design Specifications
- Include a level 3 subsection under Project Description titled Design Specifications
- List out any of the basic requirements/specifications of the design as established by the client:
- Which model(s) of Roomba should the system work with?
- What should the cost of the final product be?
- How much can the additional components weigh?
- List out any of the basic requirements/specifications of the design as established by the client:
- Testing
- Good use of tables. Include more columns to convey the information more easily.
- The columns could be titled:
- Test (photo/description)
- Goal of Experiment
- Test Setup (basis setup of the experiment for anyone that would want to repeat it)
- Results
- Significance of results in the design (What did you learn? What did you need to change)
- Final Concept
Main Ideas
- Change Main Ideas to Key Aspects of Final Design to sound more professional.
- Some of these would also fit under the Design Specifications subsection above if they were factors that influenced the design from the beginning.
- Mystery Machiners
- The bios in your team section should be written in 3rd person. No "I" or "My".
- Appendices
It is absolutely required to have this section completed before graduation
- Required:
- Final report
- Presentations
- Design reviews
- Expo Poster
- All design documents necessary to make your work reproducible (i.e. SolidWorks files, Wiring Schematics, Math models)
