My team at the university is building a 3D printed mechanical arm for a 1st grader who was born without an elbow, and we want to try out a different hand we found to compare some components. It works with a electromyography sensor via a servo/ Arduino as well. Stratasys sponsored us with print material, and the design to print in Inventor is really great. for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives.' - Socrates (I started in high school in 2003 on Inventor 3.0. I know all students want to complete their projects, but I am particularly happy I responded to that email. With Albert's permission, I thought I would share it with you. I wanted to give you an update on our 3D printed arm. Today we reached full functionality of the V1. Tomorrow we will be having young Alex try it on for the first time. We are planning for a media demonstration next Friday after tomorrow's calibration and practice. Inventor 2015 has been great for this project. It's great to see our tools put to such good use. Our company vision is to help customers imagine, design, and create a better world. On Saturday their work was featured on NBC's Today show. Using the mesh enabler, the team was able to read in STL files intended for 3D printing, customize them using Autodesk Inventor, and then print the modified parts on a Stratasys 3D printer. They were a perfect fit in more ways than one.On this week, the assignment was to model(draw, render, animate, simulate. I have a experience with a SolidWorks and Sketchup. I modeled and rendered with Autodesk Inventor. I modeled a part of my potential project (Real life game with third person view). It will be 3D printed and assembled with 2 Gopro cameras, 2 Servo motors, 1/2 inch diameter aluminium pipe. I decided to using Autodesk Inventor for this assignment. because I wanted to try that I haven’t used it before.

I downloaded the free student software from the autodesk website.

I’m going to model a Gopro 3D mount with pan-tilt motion. there are many servo motor’s CAD model files on internet.

I downloaded GoPro and servo motor models. I assembled all the file I downloaded, and modified the size to servos fit into the mount. It looked like belowīut the angle of the camera mount was limited to see downward. I needed to change the angle.įirst mistake : The biggest mistake I made was that the Gopro case was not fit in my Gopro model. I measure the size of Gopro case from the STL file I downloaded (link : ) but It was Gopro1. If I used parametric properties when I made dimensions, I could save much times.
