General objectives
By the end of the MDP1, the students should be capable of the development and the design of a weather station system including two main parts : the mechanical and the electronic parts
The project is realized in a group of two or three students, thanks to this opportunity the students should have gained an experience of project managment
Content
Project Based Learning:
Mechanical Design:
- using the CREO CAD software, create the parts starting from the real & sectioned prototype by measuring dimensions using adapted measurement tools (metrology)
- Create the subassemblies
- Create the final assembly using the necessary dynamic joints.
- Create the assembly drawing draft with nomenclature. Represent at least one section to allow the visualization of the mechanism.
- Represent in the assembly drawing two main necessary fittings and the functional conditions required in the mechanism.
- Using CREO mechanism: run the simulation using the calculated data

Electronics:
- Realization of the electronic circuit (practically+ using tinkercad) that will be used in order to realize some measurment regarding three aspects (The direction of the wind, the speed of the wind and the strength of the wind
- Development of arduino scripts in order to respond to the electronic specifications of the project
