Click to go to Sliding Doors.
There are many aspects that need to be considered when developing the mechanical system.
Planning
| Completion | Due Date *a little flexible | Stage | 
|---|---|---|
| 30-Sept | Research existing mechanisms - Doors, Sliders, Sensors, Barcode Scanners etc. | |
| 28-Sept | Create List of Requirements this component should fulfill | |
| 1-Oct | Make a design selection for components | |
| 6-Oct | Detailed Sketch(es) of Component | |
| 6-Oct | Describe how it works/each sub-components use | |
| 9-Oct | Build mini model? | 
Research Questions
Scanning
Omni-Directional Scanner -
Fixed Position Scanner - 
Require external power sources, otherwise batteries that need replacement often

[Barcodes]
Barcode Scanner(s)
- MPSi system- omnidirectional or Single scanner
 
- What type of scanners are there?
- How they scan
 - How fast they scan
 - Cost?
 
 - How does the drone drop package the exact same way each time?
 - Where to place scanning mechanism?
 - How much time is required for scanning?
 
- What type of scanners are there?
 
Opening Mechanism
- How will drone open the door?
 - How will the door stay open?
 - How will the door keep rain out/from settling on top?
 - How does the door mechanism work?
- 1 vs 2 doors, pop up or slide aside,
 - Will it hit the drone?
 
 - What kind of mechanical sliding doors are there
 - Can it hold the weight of a drone?
 - Where does the power come from to run the system?
 
Fixing/Maintenance
- How robust is the system?
 - How does it send an error signal?
 - How can a person fix the mechanisms?
