Rapid Prototyping of Structural Electronics: A Wireless Approach towards Printing of Electronic Objects (IOT)

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5

Abstract

With today’s technology excelling in the field of internet of things, rapid prototyping can be easily incorporated into the same. By rapid prototyping of electronics, a hassle free production of electronic objects can be achieved. In this paper, we propose a 3D printing technology capable of prototyping electronic objects while connected to internet and which can be accessed from anywhere in the world. The system consists of an Arduino Mega 2560 R3 board (ATmega 2560 IC), Arduino Ethernet shield, RAMPS 1.4 (Reprap Arduino Mega Pololu Shield), NEMA 17 stepper motors, A4988 stepper motor drivers, LCD controller. The Arduino Ethernet shield is used to establish communication between the Arduino mega board and a specifically designed mobile application through internet. Through the mobile application, the printer can be controlled and print file can be sent from anywhere over the internet.
