Solidworks
All CAD modelling was performed on Solidworks. The photos, animations and technical drawings of the product were created using Solidworks’ Photoview360 plugin. To ensure high-quality video renders, a minimum of 40 frames per second was chosen, and both the photos and animations were rendered in HD 1920/1080p. (Sadly the file size was too large in the animation for it to be uploaded onto Edublogs, so the quality and frames per second were reduced to create an example.)
OBS
OBS was used to record videos of my computer monitor.
Adobe Premiere Pro
The final prototype video was created using Adobe Premiere Pro. I also used Premiere Pro to change videos into GIFs, that I used throughout my websites.
Fritzing
Fritzing was used to design, create, and present all the high-quality Arduino circuit diagrams throughout this piece of work.
Physical Photography
All photos were taken on a Samsung Galaxy s10+ phone, which has a Wide-angle 12-megapixel (77-degree) lens, telephoto 12-megapixel (45-degree) lens, and ultra-wide 16-megapixel (123-degree) lens. Two different, basic, photography booths were set up for photographing components. The first was used to photograph colorful prototypes, utilizing white walls and a white sheet. A light was placed to the right of the object to improve the contrast between colors.
The second booth implemented a black background with a light shining on the component. This was used for photographing the circuitry.
