Air Path Redesign
I had free reign to design a new dust cup with an improved air path
Robotics Advanced Development team, Mechanical Engineering Co-op
I had the pleasure of working on the Robotics Advanced Development team at Shark Ninja working on the Fall 2020 line of autonomous robot vacuums. Due to a unique management structure, I had the opportunity and the responsibility to determine the projects and the tasks that would be most useful to the team and it’s long term goals.
Airpath Optimization Project
For this project, I had the luxury of redesigning the entire dust cup from scratch and designing a future model that would reap the benefits of a better airpath, improved cleaning performance, and larger dust cup volume. Initial prototypes were made using HP 3D printers. In this project I gained a ton of experience in Solid works as I had to create this model from scratch.
