Reverse Engineering: Mechanical Product - Visual Analysis

  • Using a camera phone, digital camera or your laptop's webcam, take pictures of your product that correspond to a multi-view drawing (top, front, side).

  • Post these images to your blog. Identify your product and title each object view.
  • The object that I'm using for the mechanical product Is a toy spider man that evolves and changes into

  • Perform a Product Analysis
    • Visual Analysis
      • Describe the visible design elements and principles in relation to the three images of the product.
      • In this product there are more than three images as shown above. The toy product can be taken abart and put into different positions in which he is angled differently giving different action looks.
    • Functional Analysis
      • What is the purpose of the product and how does the mechanical nature of the item support that?
      • The purpose of the mechanical product is to be sold to youths and the mechanical device evolves when turning or when taking the body apart and positioning them in different ways creating the new version of spiderman.
    • Analyze the target audience/demographics
    • The target audience are youths of both genders. Spiderman is a comic superhero that even kid loves and would love to be someday. However there are many more superheros siderman is much different.
  • Draw a sketch of your chooseing (isometric, multi-view, etc.)
    • Label the sketch with dimensions and other relevant information
      • Post the sketch to your blog

  1. Hi Amanda,

    I was hoping for one of the engineering sketches I had specified in the requirement. Have you taken an art course before? It looks like you used a grid to help you get the proportions of your sketch correct.
