PROJECT 2: Reverse Engineered Object (Week 4: Axo Drawing & Presentation)

-

Assignment: BLOG POST: REVERSE ENGINEERED OBJECT: Axonometric Drawing & Presentation Format

Assigned: Oct 31

Due: Sunday, Nov 13 @ 11:59pm (Midnight!)




Assignment Description:

Give your audience a 'how to' manual for putting the object back together!

After completing the high quality renders we will create diagrammatic axonometric drawings of our objects. As well as put together one final blog post in the format of a presentation showcasing the entire project.

Assignment Requirements:

DIAGRAM

1.) Create a new viewport using parallel axo view.

2.) Arrange your exploded objects such that they are all evenly distributed in axonometric, parallel view. From here begin to label your drawing as explained to someone putting it back together.

  • Add dash lines for where the objects meet (the direction of the screws) - think IKEA manuals.
  • Add measurements
  • Use annotations for either symbols in your legend, or on the drawing itself

3). Use the technical viewport and 'capture to file' or the make 2D command to extract exploded axonometric view drawings of your objects and their annotations. Use the layers to help you separate line weights.

4.) Create a new layout with the A2 dimensions (420 x 594 mm). Your choice to use landscape or portrait. Here you can create your legend, label your drawing with a title, add your name, and give a small description of the item/project.

5.) Print your drawing in jpeg or png and pdf to compare

PRESENTATION

6.) Brand your story! Put together a slide presentation telling the story of your entire project. No screenshots, or process details in here. Think pitching this as a sales item or for a user to disassemble and reassemble. Include high quality images of the object together and dismantled, renders of your object, and axonometric assembly instructions. Be consistent with fonts, sizing and legibility across your presentation, and remember: every colour has a purpose!

6.) Create a new blog post and include every slide from your presentation. See this blog post as a final presentation of your project! Think about the storytelling aspect if someone was to open your post or presentation without any context to your project. How would they understand your purpose?

WEEK 6 ASSIGNMENT: 3D scan and 3D model an 'organic' object

-

Assignment: 3D scan an 'organic' object Part 1 Select a stationary 'organic' object, such as fruit, a root vegetable, a plant, or even a sculpture of a living thing. Try to select something with complexity, if choosing a piece of fruit (i.e. pomegranate, pear, or even orange, cut it in half).  Download WIDAR ( or comparable 3D scanning app ) 3D scan the object using 20 or more images, edit ground plane or object in the app if necessary. You may need to try this a few times to achieve a clear object, or have to add images if a portion is missing in the processing.  Take a screen recording video of the 3D object. If your phone does not have a built in screen recorder you may use free online software for desktop like vimeo record Chrome extension Part 2  Import 1-2 images of your item into Rhino using the 'picture' command 3D model all or a part of the object in Rhino using symmetry , and/or the cage edit tool Upload blog post of the process using pictures and scr...

Project Due:  November 6, 11:59 pm Week 2 //  Building Due: Oct 31, 11:59 p m Assignment Description: We continue to manually digitize our objects and their components in Rhinoceros. Using your digital calipers, take measurements from your object and from them create dimensioned geometry in Rhino. Assignment Requirements: 1.) Using your digital calipers , take measurements of your object's components (as you go). 2.) Using 2D and 3D geometry functions, re-create your objects geometry to-scale (inputting dimensions as you enter drawing commands) 3.) Aim for dimensional accuracy of one-tenth (0.0) of a millimeter. 4.) Document your progress digitizing your object in a new post on your process blog. 5.) Include images (screenshots) of your model in the post. --- Example blog posts: F2019 F2018
