Sketch 2: Progress

Sketch 2 has been going quite smoothly, and from the help of our lab exercises, online resources and teaching staff, we've been heading on the right track with this.

We've settled on creating a scarf that will curl up around your neck to keep you warm when it detects that the ideal temperature in the area around the wearer has dropped down.

So far Francesca has knitted an infinity scarf for our Sketch.

After talking to Greg, we've decided that we are going to use a small round motor that is at the bottom of the scarf (hanging from the wearer's neck) this way, we will be able to create a pully system.

The motor will pull on a string or thread contained within the scarf, winding up to pull the motor closer to the wearers neck.

More updates later.
