Cystoscope

Organization:

Duke Course - Advanced Design and Manufacturing

What I Learned: 

Through this assignment, I learned a lot about design for manufacturing. The cystoscope had to be injection moldable which required design adjustments to get the right amount of draft angle. 

Project Description:

As a part of this course, students were tasked with redesigning the rigid cystoscope to become more user and patient friendly. The assignment spanned the entire design process from an initial mood board to the final CAD assembly
