Sky Swimmer

The purpose of this course was to design and CAD model a SkySwimmer while following a given mandate. This was meant for indoor promotion as it would have large helium "wings" where advertisers could put logos, etc. 

Learned:

Designed a Timing which used Geneva Wheel Mechanism, to create the illusion of something "Swimming" through the air. This required the Sails to turn at different times mimicking the motion. 

Group work required collaborating and deciding on a final design path. I personally aided in design and bringing concept to life with technical drawings

Equipment Used:

  • Solidworks

    • CAD Modelling

  • Course Notes (Introduction to Design)

    • Theoretical Analysis

  • Presentation

    • To demonstrate how the design followed mandate specifications​
