Overview
Lego sets have been around for the past 50 years and have been enjoyed by people from all around the world. Very recently, Lego released a website called “Lego Cuusoo” through which people can create and submit their own ideas for a Lego project. Following the submission of the project onto the website, a voting process occurs; if enough support is gathered, the project moves into the production stage and is then sold through Lego. The revenue is shared with the developer as well. Accordingly, the objective of the MSCI 100 project consisted of entering our own idea of a Lego Project onto the website.
The project began with the splitting of the class into teams of 4, each creating their own original idea. Once the ideas from all the groups were presented, a vote was taken to determine which one the class as a whole favoured. The idea that was chosen was “Winterfell,” an area from the popular television show, Game of Thrones. Each team was then asked to give a rough sketch/design of what the idea could potentially look like, and another vote was conducted. After the final design was chosen, the Lego project was split into different components to work on. Each team designed their own component using the Lego Digital Designer (LDD) software and designed their own special piece on AutoCad Inventor. These special pieces were constructed using a 3D-printer and the project was then put together. Finally, the completed design was submitted onto Lego Cuusoo. Some limiting constraints involved in the process of completing this project included the size and scope of the Lego set. An issue we came across
