Hello everyone, it’s time for my first post this year!
It’s been a while since I posted, I’ve been a little busy and haven’t had a lot of time for photography.
Over the past few months I have been making some photos at work though and I thought people might like to see some of those.
Right now I am in my last year of school which consists of half a year theory lessons and a final internship of about half a year.
Since I already did the theory lessons last year I just had the internship left.
My internship is at the Neuroscience department in the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam. Basically they gave me a problem and I had to think of a solution and make it.
The problem they gave me is as following:
One of the things Neuroscience researches is hand-eye coordination to detect Alzheimer disease or brain damage caused by internal bleedings. This research is done using a research assembly the people there have created over the years.
This assembly however is not very flexible. Everything is completely fixed and it is very hard to move. This is why they would like to have a new assembly which differs in height to match different patients and is easily movable.
Also they would like to be able to change some other things in the assembly, but I’m not going in to too much detail as that would be a very long story.
In the first few months of my internship I have created a full design for the new assembly and I am working on parts for that assembly now.
These photos are from two of the somewhat bigger parts which were quite a challenge to make.
