We needed to create a place on the S1 to mount a Jetson, power it and a place for the Lidar. We opted replacing a few chassis parts of the original S1 to get extra mounting points on the S1. Most parts are manufactured by the Makerspace at the Hu but al parts are designed within the group. Take note that these are early design to test if things work and most parts could definitely be improved for further use cases. All the parts that are used can be found on thingiverse, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5165223

3D Printed parts

To create 3D printable parts, you will need to create a object file that contains the parts that you would like to print. We used Fusion 360 to create STL files that can be used for slicer software so we can 3D print it. There are alternatives for Fusion 360 but this program is free to use for students and is designed for engineering problems which suited our case.

Laser cut parts

We have designed some parts for the S1 to be laser cut. We chose to do this because it is faster and sometimes stronger material then 3D prints. To create design that can be laser cut, you need to know what the software chain is for the laser cutter. The laser cutter at our school was designed for the graphical approach using the adobe software. We used a combination of drawing a DWG files where the exact measures are saved in for the cutting edges and Adobe illustrator, to create files that can be used for the laser cutter. We recommend if you want to learn how to create these files, that you request help from someone that has done it before to save time.
