Autmoblox Presentation Research
Over the past week we have been researching how to analyze visual, functional and structural parts of automoblox vehicles in preparation for performing this analysis on another object which we will attempt to reverse engineer. In the visual analysis phase, we looked for elements and principles of visual design such as line, color, shape, form, texture, contrast, emphasis, and proportions. The elements made the object look like visually appealing and made it look like an actual realistic car. We discovered by analyzing 3 different views of our car the different elements and principles found in our car. To name a few, there is a contrast of the blue on the beige color, there is always a symmetrical balance throughout the car and a consistent rhythm. There is always more emphasis towards the solid blue at the top and it contains curved lines on straight parallel lines. In functional analysis we had to identify the functions of certain car parts, identify how they worked, and how they interacted with other parts. For example we looked at how the axle worked with the wheel. We had to predict how it worked and then take it apart and evaluate our prediction compared to how it really worked. We looked at all the main parts of the car, identified their function, interaction with other parts, by predictions and disassembly. The last thing was 6.4, structural analysis. In this activity we analyzed characteristics of the cars structure through sketches measurements and notes about each one. We took it apart until we had 13 separate parts, we sketched dimesnsioned, listed the function, material and interaction with other parts, of each piece we had.
