vehicle for me to design something interesting. My goal was to do something that would be more challenging with physical build and hardware and not so challenging with software, to reflect my personal abilities. After some discussion with Zach, I decided to go with the poem printer. I thought that it would be something different, but still fun! The only thing I changed from my initial concept was to do the poem selection based on the weight class of a glass of water. This was a way for me to include another physical input form that I hadn&#8217;t tried before. Buttons are fine but I wanted to challenge myself a little more.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16689\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16689\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16689 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-973x730.jpg 973w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2464-508x381.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16689\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Creation thoughts and sketches, as well as some measurements for laser cutting<\/p><\/div>\n<p>On the design concept side, I found a lot of my inspiration through just looking through the scrap pile in the laser cutting room of ideate. There was this great mirrored acrylic scrap that there was enough to work with, so I grabbed it! I had the idea to make the mirrored material to look like a puddle to reflect (no pun intended) the glass of water that was going to go in as a part of the build. I think this style of design turned out well and the final build feels polished, largely in thanks to the mirrored acrylic.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16695\" style=\"width: 1930px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16695\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16695 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-973x1297.jpg 973w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2387-508x677.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16695\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Freshly laser-cut mirrored acrylic, before I inserted the printer, speaker, and switch, and put it on its base<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Two major points of my project were getting the load cell working and getting the printer to print poems out of an array.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16687\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16687\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16687 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"beginning to work w load cell\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-973x730.jpg 973w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2368-508x381.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16687\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beginning of working with the load cell<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Firstly, getting the load cell to work within my final model was quite tricky. Getting it to work in general was fine, but that was in the context of standard tables and the lab, aided with clamps. That came back to bite me later as I was trying to insert the load cell into my final build. I assumed that I would be able to duct tape the load cell to the lid of my build, therefore creating enough tension for the load cell to function. In practice, however, that was not the case. I duct taped it in, but it was not calibrating correctly and not calibrating consistently.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16690\" style=\"width: 1930px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16690\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16690 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-1024x812.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-768x609.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-1536x1218.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-973x772.jpg 973w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_2388-scaled-e1667189982476-508x403.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16690\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some of the strange outputs I was getting while trying to calibrate a non-clamped load cell<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I then realized that I needed to provide more support to the one side of the load cell. So, I tried to add in vertical supports underneath by cutting and propping up some of the eighth-inch laser cutting wood. That didn&#8217;t really work. So, I decided that what I really needed was to recreate the clamp sensation within my build. So, I hauled myself to the design product studio to find blocks of wood and screws. I created a wooden base, which I screwed into the base of the build and then I screwed the load cell into that. This, finally, was enough to recreate the tension support of using a clamp on the load cell bar.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16700\" style=\"width: 490px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16700\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16700 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ezgif-5-23b4958d85.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"853\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My triumph of getting the load cell to work<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Then, my second challenge, which I still have not overcome: the printing poems out of an array. Originally, the problem was that I had very little to paper to test on, so I did most of my initial programming with Serial print in mind. However, this part of the problem was resolved when the printer paper came in.<\/p>\n<p>The more difficult and ongoing issue for printing the poems is memory. Unfortunately for me, the Arduino has very little memory, so even something as small as a haiku takes up far more memory than that little thing has. Therefore, when trying to print poems out of an array, I simply can&#8217;t. For reasons I don&#8217;t know, even trying to print single words out of an array seemed to be posing an issue for my system. The printer can print cohesivelyIt&#8217;s rather frustrating because printing the poem is the crux of my device\u2014without it, it seems to do nothing at all besides make some noise. Sometimes, my printer will print seemingly random characters, ones that aren&#8217;t even a part of the poems; meaning that it&#8217;s reading something out of the arrays, just I&#8217;m not sure what. All in all, it&#8217;s something I am still working to fix.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16694\" style=\"width: 2466px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16694\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-16694 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2456\" height=\"1202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM.png 2456w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-1024x501.png 1024w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-768x376.png 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-1536x752.png 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-2048x1002.png 2048w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-973x476.png 973w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/60-223\/f2022\/work\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-12.34.35-AM-508x249.png 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2456px) 100vw, 2456px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16694\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some code from my most recent help session with Zach<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To try and remedy this I have met with Zach two times now, to very little success. We added in an microSD card in hopes that by having the Arduino pull from text files, it will bypass the memory issue. So far, we have been able to pull information out of the text files on the microSD card, but transferring that information to the printer still seems to be an issue. The last we left off, the printer could print parts of my poems, but not the entire poem. Once again, it&#8217;s following some form of logic that I personally can&#8217;t follow. Although this project is over for the class, I plan to continue working on this project. I really want to see it through. Despite how frustrated it makes me, I still think the concept is interesting and I want to have a piece that I can show the world.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Discussion<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This has been quite a difficult project for me. I think what has proved quite a challenge has been the things I did not expect to be a challenge at all, doubly so because they seemed to appear last-minute, but not have been easy to solve at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some things, of course, did go easily: like the design. I\u2019m happy with how the design turned out visually. It looks clean but still interesting and I think that people respond to the mirror acrylic in a way I hoped they would. I wanted to create something playful but still sophisticated. For example, in the in-class crit, I got good positive feedback including \u201cvery aesthetically pleasing\u201d, \u201cthe design was well executed\u201d, and \u201cthe laser cut mirror acrylic panels on the top were really effective\u201d. My design was the biggest thing I felt confident about and it was nice to see that reflected. Also importantly to me, people in the in-class crit seemed to understand my intent with the project, despite its flaws. My favorite comment was: \u201cI love the meaning and thought behind the project. I also love that the poem is printed and feels more meaningful than just seeing it printed on the screen\u201d. I try to incorporate a materiality of being into my work, making things where you walk away with something, tangible or not. As I often describe it, I like making my work something to be existed <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">with<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, not just tangentially to. It made me feel proud that others can see my work in the same way that I see my work. As a designer, I often worry about communicating the things in the way I intend to, so especially on abstract projects like this one I am not sure my message is getting through. But it really seems like it is, and I\u2019m glad for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But on this project\u2019s flaws, it has one main large one: The poems will not print properly. Like I mentioned before, this is incredibly frustrating because the poem printing is sort of the crux of the machine, it\u2019s sort of its point. I didn\u2019t even expect the poem printing to be an issue. I didn\u2019t know about the Arduino\u2019s limited memory going into the project, so I simply assumed that pulling out an array of strings would be easy. I\u2019ve coded with arrays before so it felt like familiar territory. In fact, I assumed that the harder part would be to get the printer printing in general. Not so much. It really is something that I\u2019m still working towards fixing and I do want it fixed eventually. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll really step back from this project until it feels like a total dead end.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Overall, I am so-so on this project. On one hand, I am happy with the visual appearance of the design. It\u2019s self-contained and pretty; it\u2019s something I wouldn\u2019t mind having on my desk or on my night stand, which was the goal. It satisfied my desire to try to design an object totally independently of a class. It\u2019s a good accomplishment for me. On the other hand, I would be lying to say it works. The poems will not print properly. It\u2019s something I\u2019m really disappointed about. I\u2019m frustrated with my inability to get it working, but I\u2019m reminding myself that I can\u2019t even get it working with Zach\u2019s help, who is far more experienced with Arduino and code than I am. I stand by the concept, but if I could go back and tell four-weeks-younger Elise to just to do audio of reading the poems or something, I would.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Block
