Samples of Solidworks Designs

Daniel Cunningham, MIT

Modeling: Mitsubichi Nuclear Reactor

Given specifications (above), created a Solidworks model for presentation purposes

Rendered animations and figures with Photoworks, additional components images added in Photoshop (Right)

Completed in 24-hour span, accurately sized

PPG Sensor Wrist Constraint

Designed a strap-on wrist constraint to go with a wireless, wearable, beat-to-beat blood pressure monitor

Held wrist to prescribed angles, where pressures read best

Utilized solidworks flexible assemblies Prototyped with 3D-printed ABS and

off-the-shelf components

Winch-Bot: Underactuated Pendulum

Funded by the Boeing Corporation to further their flexible manufacturing system Designed in Solidworks and prototyped with 3D printed ABS and laser-cut acrylic Optical angle sensor utilizes 40 MHz FPGA to optically measure angle of string String length controlled with a high-precision servoed DC motor System controlled in Labview using the NI cRIO-9074 Master’s Thesis work, two conference papers and a forthcoming journal article

Automatic Animal Food Dispenser

Side-project, designed in my free time for my personal use

Built with PVC and minimal 3d-printed ABS (designed to be Injection Molded)

Controlled with the open-source Arduino Controller Board (Duemilanovae) and hobby servo

Functional prototype in use
