This group project to I did in my second year of university I was to do the physical artefact of this Arduino however due to circumstances outside of my control I was unable to do as much as hoped from my evidencing I am going to copy and paste what I had planned to do into the next section the artwork and coding was done by my colleagues
“When it comes to the physical artefact there was a plan for me to model and print a selection of internal organs that would act as a way to mentally connect what's going on on the screen and what's going on physically as well as two secure the more delicate electronics as they could easily become disconnected if this was to be made as a retailable product. I had planned to use two different types of plastics for different purposes within the artefact that I would get to The Wanted shape using a 3D printer. I would utilise it by using the program Ultimaker Cure which would allow models that I was planning to make be transferred into G code that my printer could then interpret. The different types of plastics that were going to be used were pla which is a hard set plastic that has a relatively high durability but its main advantage is through its cheap cost and low melting point meaning that is extremely easy to produce and get lots of prints done with it in relative speaker of 3D printing and the other plastic that planned to be used was called TPU which is a flexible plastic that was hoping to be used for things like internal organs as it is soft and flexible and therefore would give a less artificial feel to the artefact when it comes to the Organic elements as it would give a greater quality of immersive feedback with the interactive elements”
