Description:

For our purposes, the Arduino and Bluetooth module must be housed in a protective casing to prevent damage to the system. We aim to house both these components together in a 3D printed case that can attach easily to an officer’s shoulder strap.

Updates: 

April 20

Final Case Variation was printed. A loop for integration with the strap of the bulletproof vest was incorporated. Below, the case bottom is seen on the vest strap, shown in top left of the image.

March 6

The 3D Case was picked up from the Wondry.

Identified design flaws

• Need to redesign top cover (sliding lock into place not feasible for wiring)
• Add slot / channel for shoulder strap / “passant” for uniform integration
