Neo1973 drawings - 3D model
I also made a simple 3D model of the Neo1973. It's intended more for drawings illustrations, since I didn't have all the dimensions and the model is a bit rough. If anyone has detailed measurements it would be great if they posted them on the wiki. Links to the model some renderings are on the wiki as follows: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Hardware:Neo1973:Alternate_Cases#Alternate_Case_Suggestion_Format http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo1973_case_schematics -Jeremiah Ryan Lerch wrote: Yeah, if the wiki took SVG, I would have uploaded them there instead of the openclipart library. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:community- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shawn Rutledge Sent: Friday, 5 October 2007 10:06 AM To: List for OpenMoko community discussion Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Neo1973 drawings On 10/4/07, Ryan Lerch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If anyone is interested, I have uploaded a few simple drawings of the neo1973 to the openclipart library.

Re: Neo1973 drawings
Ah, I checked. My version of SolidEdge can export objects to: - IGES (*.igs) - ProductVision (*.jt) - ACIS (*.sat) - STEP (*.stp) - ParaSolid (*.x_b,*.x_t) - XGL (*.xgl) - EMS (*.ems) - STL (*.stl) - VRML I have no idea of wether these formats are interesting for you or not. Google SketchUp may be a good alternative here. 2007/10/21, Eric Preston [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I wrote: If this doesn't happen before next wednesday, remind me and I'll measure up one of my GTA01s with my digital micrometer.

If this is true, then the GTA02 case should be documented in the same way, when we get our hands on it. (I am planning to do this myself in December, if the current schedule holds.) But the GTA01 should be documented too. And the sooner this is done, the sooner we will be able to finish the designs of things like ExpansionBack and ExpansionSpacer, which should work equally well with GTA01 and GTA02. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Neo1973 drawings
for a start that some of us have made on the wiki. is anyone with a GTA01 up for whipping out their micrometer/3d scanner and knocking something together? even better, is anyone at FIC/openmoko able and willing to provide us with detailed drawings of the case? If this doesn't happen before next wednesday, remind me and I'll measure up one of my GTA01s with my digital micrometer. I happen to be 1000km from it this weekend (my micrometer not my neo :-) Would be great if somebody did a really thorough job of documenting the Neo case. In other words, disassemble a Neo as described here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Disassembling_Neo1973 and make nice orthographic images of all the case parts, from all angles -- back, front, edge-on, etc. The easiest way to do this is to simply place the parts on a flatbed scanner. And put a pair of short rulers on there too, at right angles, for calibration (millimeter scale!). The orthographic images produced in this way aren't perfect, but they're a lot better than what you get with an ordinary camera, at least for some purposes. You don't have to worry about camera angles and such, and the resolution is potentially much higher too. By all means, make lots of measurements with the micrometer, everything you can think of that might be useful to somebody who wants to hack hardware or design add-on parts. But with some good orthographic images uploaded into the wiki, people would have an opportunity to make measurements that weren't thought of when the micrometer measurements were made, or that aren't easy to make with a micrometer. Some non-trivial things to measure include draft angles and radii of curvature (there are lots of these, as molded parts rarely have true sharp corners on them -- these corners are usually radiused). Use a high resolution, true color, PNG format. Leave the scanner lid up and turn off the room lights for a nice black background. Yes the image files will be large. I don't mind, I have broadband. :) ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
