Lab 05: Design Concepts: Screening and Scoring

Situation

This lab utilized a concept screening matrix to compare the various designs built by each member. This allowed the designs to be compared and the best two from the screening matrix were passed onto the concept scoring matrix to determine which is best. The design that was deemed best was chosen to be the final design.

To do/Action Items:

  • Complete PDR Worksheet – (IJ,TP)
  • Update the Project Portfolio – (JP,MT)

Decisions:

  • The team made the decision to explore other forms of propulsion rather than using propellers, spring propulsion being the most likely candidate.

  • The team failed to keep up with the Project Portfolio until this point, putting the team behind. In future, the team plans to keep the portfolio updated on a weekly basis.
