Team #5: Total Resources • Relative total estimated to be 750 man-hours, however this may change due to team member expertise or un-expected events such as interviews or medical emergencies. • $200 available budget for material and prototyping • Summarize your individual and team commitments to the project !!
Team #5: Decision Making • Upon decisions within all project guidelines we will discuss creative options and try to come to a conclusion. If multiple conclusions are reached, we shall decide on one pending a vote amongst all members. • If teams cannot make effective decisions according to their agreed upon guideline, they may appeal to their Lab Assistant and upwards to the Prof/Lect • The Prof/Lect has the final call on any team decision
Roles to Define & Assign • Lead Project Integrator (LPI): Sean Kuter • Lead System Designer (LSD): Andy LaPointe • Lead Presentation Manager (LPM): Eric Fritz • Lead Report Manager (LRM): Kurt Stonger • Lead Manufacturing Mgr (LMM): Shawn Bostwick
Project Idea #1Reptile ECU • Integrates 4 key environmental controls. • Surface Temperature • Ambient Temperature • Humidity • Light • Eliminates timers, switches, and excess wires. • Door open alarm for additional security • Monitors 1 to 4 terrariums.

Project Selection Process for Project 1 • Does utilize Expertise of all team members • Sean Kuter is an amateur herpetologist (he has a snake) • Does not require large technology inventions • Most components exist and are not “hi-tech” • Can be easily prototyped • Sean owns a terrarium with snakes • All components have reasonable lead time • Most of the needed components can be ordered on the internet
Project Selection Process for Project 2 • Components require excess technology inventions • No available heating element for in line water heating • Lead times will be excessive due to custom parts • We will need to custom build a shower head with a heater • Prototype would require a water source • No water source in EMS lecture halls • Team members do not possess adequate expertise to implement this design • No experience with heat transfer
Project Selection Process for Project 3 • Problems differentiating from existing products • RFID devices exist and are already going to market • Team does not have expertise in RF • Prototype would be costly and hard to implement • Components do not have reasonable lead times
Project Selection Process for Project 4 • Team does not have expertise in the Medical Field • The approval process for medical devices is lengthy • The prototype would be difficult to make • The technology exists but we would need to reinvent much of it
Project Selection Process for Project 5 • Require extensive and precise mechanical construction • Prototype will have large dimensions • Demands in depth technology for control
