  1. P08003Portable Obstacle Course Presented By: Jared Berman Allison Hill Nicolette McGeorge Samir Mian Shadle Stewart

  2. Agenda • Project Description • High Level Customer Needs • Description of selected concept • High Risk Assessment • Current State of Design • Schedule for MSD II

  3. Project Description • Physical Therapy Clinic of Nazareth College J.J. Mowder – Tinney PT • There is no commercial product readily available to recreate daily household movements. • Our objective is to create an obstacle course to simulate a more realistic experience for stroke patients re-learning how to walk.

  4. Project Description • An ideal course would allow for various: • Terrain • Routes • Lengths • Difficulty • Obstacles • As well as being an evolving course, it is necessary to keep track of how many, what kind, and placement of the various obstacles used during each session.

  5. Major Customer Needs • Portable, easy-to-use obstacle course • Has to be repeatable, reusable and reconfigurable • Should be able to keep track of obstacle and surface orientation • Safety (patient and PT)

  6. Selected Concepts • “Puzzle Piece” • Each piece with embedded circuitry • 1 surface type per piece • 5 possible obstacle locations on each piece

  7. Surfaces and Obstacles • Obstacles • Throw-rug • Curb • Heater vent • Threshold • Shoe • Pillow • Bundle of Cords • Stuffed animal • Books Surfaces • Carpet • with padding • Hardwood • Concrete • Ice • Gravel • Rubber Mat

  8. Surface Piece Concept • “Puzzle Piece” • Sandwiched layers • Embedded tracking system • Holes for obstacle placement

  9. Obstacle Concept • Obstacle Peg attachment • Plate mount • Attach to bottom of obstacle • Fits into holes in surfaces to allow for tracking

  10. Storage Concept • Storage Cart • Will store all eight surface pieces • Can be wheeled around

  11. Tracking System Concept • Tracks what surfaces are connected and where obstacles are using switches embedded into the surface pieces • Microcontroller • Printer prints out the course setup • Makes the setup repeatable for tracking physical therapy progress

  12. High Risk Assessment • Ice Length • Training • Replacement of Key Components • Obstacle Detachment from peg-mount • Learning curve for electronics • Manufacturing Time Constraints

  13. Current State of Design • Project design meets customer needs • Design meets engineering specifications • Project is comfortably under budget • Allocated: $2000, Bill of Materials: ~$1600 • Need to stay on schedule to complete project in specified time

  14. Schedule for MSD II Week 1 - All materials should be purchased. Week 2 - Begin manufacturing first 2 pieces and continue programming with microcontroller. Week 5 – Produce 2 fully functional surfaces with obstacles and send to Nazareth for preliminary testing. Week 7 - Make necessary modifications based on feedback received. Week 10 - Deliver final product.
