This Project was about designing a fully working product from concept to reality using only 3D CAD and Digital Manufacturing techniques.

My Product - The ATOM is a digital square wave synthesiser built from scratch around a 40106 HEX SCHMITT Inverter. It has a single oscillator and LFO. the pitch can be controlled via potentiometer, buttons or light resistor. The ATOM has a in-built speaker and 3.5mm audio output.

The ATOM was designed in Solidworks.
The case was CNC Routed from Aluminium then anodised and laser engraved.
The faceplate was laser cut from glossy ABS
The Buttons and internal chassis were 3D printed in a variety of materials from Shapeways.



A project from the Bachelor of Design Innovation at Victoria University Wellington, New Zealand.
