Exploded Views

Here are some of the exploded views that did not make the cut for the final presentation. 

Solidworks for model

The solidworks model was made for the fish was made with an excessive number of lofts. At this point I dont know how big the tank will be so getting the size right will be hard. I know that it is easy to scale it down in the 3d printing program. I will have to make the fish within 2 halves and a hole in each half for a weight. I modelled half the fish then mirrored the half then cut extruded the original part.

Filming

Here are all the scenes that made the first cut. I used Final Cut Pro to edit the video and splice all the scenes together. It was not a simple task, as can be seen in the final video, there are scenes that required split screens, titles and alot of cutting. I had to find time at my cousin's office to do the editing as at QUT we don't have access to video editing programs :(. I figured that the Rocky theme song fit with the cliché nature  of the video.

Case Design

 

The case is curved abs mould or extrusion. It has 25mm radius corners. It is designed to be wide enough for the fish to fit into it yet slim enough so that it is easily mountable on the wall and is aesthetically pleasing.

Wristband

Since I modelled the fish and the tank and was in charge of the video, Lisa created the wristband. I did some small sketches for her so she understood the internals and how they worked. We want to have an LED array on the band to give the user feedback on their heart rate while they run. This red one was our first concept. We decided that the black part looked too fat and bulky so we revised it and designed the yellow concept below which had 3 moveable sections. which would fit better to the wrist.

This concept allows users to slide the band up their arm for a tighter fit. Sliding it up their arm will actually increase the precision of the heart rate monitors.
