The goal: find a problem that you see around you and design/prototype a product to address that problem. We decided to create a simple brake for skateboarders. I was the main CAD lead for this project, modeling and 3D printing several iterations of each of the brake's components. We refined the brake action so that it would fold away from the wheels when not used but was still effective when actuated. If we were to continue developing this product, we would not concentrate on the actuation of the brake, as the current foot pedal is not very ergonomic.
