The SLA sensor workshop


We, Parklogists rushed to National Design Centre(NDC) to have our sensors workshop at 2 PM. Before we had headed to there, we had already interviewed some of our classmates how was the sensor workshop. Many of them complained about the hot solder burnt their hands and also more than 4 hours of time they spent there.

  We were excited about the workshop a week ago. Most exciting part of competition is that we get to make our own sensors for FREE! 
  Our process of assembling our sensors turned out to be successful. None of us was injuried. Perhaps we were taking our own sweet time to placing the hot melted metal on the plate with the 390 degree solders. We did not to burn ourselves. Everything is similar to electrical engineering. One Maker Group staff were helpful,if they were not around, we were be staying in NDC till 12 AM midnight. Each item had to be placed at the right spots and could not stick it with overload melted metal otherwise it would trigger short circuit another kind of issues.



  We enjoyed a lot during the workshop. This is something we have never done in our school life. Joining this competition, we are given opportunities to explore new things that we would not try back then.

Feel free to watch the workshop video below which is captured by one of Parklogists.
