Job ID: 35132689

Budget: $2 – $8 USD

Our project is to make a device that can detect dog vital signs through sensors. The device we are designing is a dog harness with an enclosure in the front with all the electronic components inside.

Dog at rest (Static Analysis)
Medium Dog
The enclosure is a 5x3 and the material we are going to be using is PLA.

Properties of PLA:
Here are the general properties of PLA:
Flexural Strength: 88.8 MPa
Melting Temperature: >155°C
Tensile Strength: 61.5MPa
Heat Resistance: 110ºC
Impact Strength: 30.8[kJ/m²]
Elongation at Break: 6%
Standard Tolerance: +/-0.05mm
Minimum Wall Thickness: 0.0197mm - 0.5 mm
Extruded Temperature: 160°C-220°C
Shore Hardness :85A
PLA Density: 1.25 g/cm^3
Thermal Conductivity: 0.13 W/m-K

For the harness we are going to be using Hemp. And the dimension for the harness is
Back Length: 10.5in (27cm)
Chest: 20in (50cm)
Neck: 14in (36cm)
