  1. FOLDABLE ELECTRONICS Board of Directors: Dr. Tom Weller VinicioCarias Members: Robert Donatto Federico Diamante BethlehamWorku Elisha Stevenson

  2. LAST WEEK -Develop Short Term Goals -Pitch Ideas for next week -Find Local Companies -Identify Individual Roles -Attend Different Conferences Before Capstone Project (December 2012) -Attend entrepreneur workshops

  3. Member Duties Robert Donatto &Federico Diamante (Electrical Engineer)- Will work on designing and testing RFID Tag sensor BethlehamWorku(Mechanical Engineer)- Building a state of the art user friendly 3D printer Elisha Stevenson(Computer Engineer)- Develop code for 3D printer and microchip program from RFID Tag

  4. SHORT TERM GOALS:SUMMER • Group Goals: • Testing printer & Ink • Gain access to NREC • Weekly updates • Website • Entrepreneurship sessions • Individual Goals: • Design/construct RFID Tag with embedded Bluetooth Chip • Obtain parts and start design/construction of 3D printer • Research user friendly program for 3D printer and develop code

  5. Constraints Printer: Correct cartridge Reverse engineer cartridge Emulate Cartridge Purchase new cartridge Understanding of printer software Reprogram printer software Download of RIP(Raster image processor) $3000

  6. 3D Printers: Rapid Prototyping: Machine fully cures each layer Able to print in X,Y, and Z axis Ability to print through CAD design User Friendly Computer Numeric Control (CNC) Machine

  7. OUTPUT IDEAS: • RFID-tags: • Antenna printed with metal particles • Information can be read on the chip • Radio Frequency range between 13.56MHz-900MHz • Uses: • Lost Goods (Cell Phone, luggage, backpack, important documents) • Grocery Checkout

  8. OUTPUT IDEAS: • Sensors: • Gas detection • Water detectors • Fire detectors • Explosion detectors • Identification • License • Access to car • Child proofing • Finding missing items • Prosthetic sensors • Heat • Pressure sensor • Space suits • Helmets • Health • Heat (health) • Impact • Transmission: • Bluetooth  chip • Powered by Solar or heat

  9. BLUETOOTH: • Properties: • Long Battery Life • Wireless Data Transformation • Light Weight • Small in size • Built in Antenna Connection • Sturdy • Bluetooth chipset-http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10253
