As part of the requirements for Design and Communication in Graphics (final year, high school class) we were given a brief which asked us to:
-carry out an investigation into the features and physical form of existing MP3 docking stations
-compare two docking stations in detail
-make a complete 3D model of a docking station
- produce rendered sketches of the docking station
and
-propose a modification to improve an existing docking station
I completely disassembled an existing docking station to create an accurate model in Solidworks. By copying all the features attentively, I learned a lot of important important modelling techniques.
This was a project in high school that I really enjoyed doing and cemented my interest in product design and engineering.
