3D Printed Sensor Mount Design

Your sensor doesn't sit where it needs to. A small printed part could fix that.

Evidence you will build

  • Fabrication brief with specifications
  • CAD model (v1 and v2)
  • Technical drawing
  • Before/after performance dataset

Why this matters

Reliable sensor placement turns messy field data into evidence communities can act on — mounts are small but decisive.

What you will investigate and collect

You will design and print a sensor mount that solves a real problem from your earlier investigation. Whether your printed mount actually improves sensor reliability — and what design choices made the biggest difference. Before-and-after reliability measurements, design notes, and photos.

What you might make or share

  • Link sketches to evidence with a concise shareable artefact

    Translates iterative notes into something others can scrutinise.
