To begin our capstone journey our class had been divided into groups or “design teams” to create and develop useful solutions for an existing problem or problems that our industry and society face. The spectrum of our project spans from the idea and research phases all the way to the final documentation and, in our case, production phases. As a group longing for a challenge we chose to not only come up with a project design/report but also create a prototype of our design. We have chosen as a group to come up with a product design solution for an Automated Parts Management System. By documenting everything with notes and a litany of data and research we have taken step by step actions to continuously make progress throughout the semester to reach goals we set. Our semester long journey has demanded a wide range of specialized skills in the Electrical field that we have accrued over our years here at UW-Stout to inevitably reach a successful finish to our project.
