Welcome to the STEP Hardware Repository

We plan to focus on designing a wearable that helps people communicate with “smart” technology in an unobtrusive, private, and efficient manner. We want our system to support more natural interactions with smart technologies.

In this repository you'll find all of the hardware projects we've been working on.

Special thanks to...

  • The STEP teaching team (Dr. Alessandra Ferzoco, Dr. Caitrin Lynch, Dr. Sam Michalka, Dr. Paul Ruvolo) for doing a phenomenal job desiging and leading the class
  • Olin College of Engineering for providing us with space and resources
  • Olin Electric Motorsports for inspiring a lot of our repository infrastructure, documentation, and workflow (check out their respoitory by clicking here)

Questions

How big is the Ring PCB?

It measures 12 × 20 mm and has 4 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.

What parts does the Ring use?

39 parts, built around the MLPF-WB55-01E3, TPS62840DLCR, ANT016008LCS2442MA2 and AOCA32116E. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Ring KiCad files?

From the OlinSTEP/step-devices repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is projects/ring/ring.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ring design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask OlinSTEP before reusing the design.
