What Bayes Statistics Imply about This Diagnostic Approach
Intro to Computer-Aided DesignTinkerCAD Using TinkerCad was relatively simple after following the step by step tutorials that showcase all the tools possible. TinkerCad is user-friendly and despite being simple, had a variety of options in order to create different things. The first thing we did was follow the tutorial in order to understand the different tools such as zooming, the shapes, and grouping shapes together. After the tutorial, we downloaded Dr. Haynes files in order to begin redesigning the fluorimeter. Dr. Haynes files were much better suited for this particular lab compared to the basic tools given, however, when we were redesigning the fluorimeter so that the camera phone can take better images for data, the other shapes became useful. During the Computer-Aided Design we tried out different options and settled on creating a very mobile attachment to the fluorimeter so that the phone can get the best angle of the data. We used several shapes in order to complete the finished product. It was a bit difficult at first because if the shape is too big, it was hard viewing the whole device when the screen only showed so much.
Our design keeps the basic box-shape of the fluorimeter, however, we have added an attachment (colorful portion) that makes taking down data much easier. The slider, which is in pastel pink, slides in and out of the fluorimeter in order to get as close as needed to the data that is being collected. The purpose of the sliding mechanism is to prevent the user from taking the phone out of the cradle constantly, and enable more mobile movement without disrupting anything. The light blue circles enable rotating ability of the attachment for more movement as well, and similar to a "selfie stick" the blue rod extends when needed in order to optimize the best viewing option. Finally, the light purple portion is where the phone is, and the difference from the OpenPCR design and this is that this design works like a clamp in order to secure the phone steady. On the other hand, in the OpenPCR lab, the cradle was unstable and the phone constantly fell or changed direction with slight movement which is why we opted for a design where we are able to position the phone and keep it at that position without it being moved.
