Rover: Prototype Mk1 - Monitor Mount
For the monitor stand, aluminium sheet would be a better choice as it is more sturdy and does not break easily compared to polycarbonate and acrylic respectively. There were 2 design for the monitor. The 1st design is able to mount both monitor and camera while the 2nd design only allows to mount the monitor. Comparing them in terms of time taken for fabrication and amount of material used, the 2nd design is better than the 1st design. However the bending process will affect the dimension from the drawings. With this, the bending process must be planned carefully. Not only that, the tolerance of the slot for the monitor must be considered for the 1st design while the 2nd design does not. If the design of the monitor mount have to change, the mount for the camera in the 1st design will be affected but not for the 2nd design.
