Integration 2 - Jacob-Dixon/MysticWhip GitHub Wiki

##Project Electronics Integration 2 is the refinement and final design of the project. Our PCB layout and design in Integration 2 is very different (and much more refined) than our Integration 1 PCB. For this phase of the project we switched to mainly surface mount components to fit our package size requirements.

##Project Packaging Leading up to Integration 2, the package design was refined dramatically. As we had planned, we 3D printed a prototype handle to make sure our components will fit in the final design, and then we printed a revised version with minor changes. Because of our shift in visual technology, we had to change the whip material design. It is now a light dispersing fiber optic cable with leather strips wrapping it.
