OVERVIEW
Designed a compact steel sheet-metal enclosure housing all power, audio, and network infrastructure required to support individual student desks in immersive classroom environments. The system integrates multiple electrical subsystems into a thermally managed, manufacturable form factor optimized for large-scale deployment.
HighlightS
- Designed custom bent steel sheet-metal enclosure for integrated subsystem packaging
- Integrated power supply, audio amplifier, DMX decoder, WiFi router, and network switch into single enclosure
- Developed internal mounting architecture to support repeatable installation
- Implemented active fan cooling for thermal management in high-density configuration
- Redesigned enclosure geometry to simplify installation and reduce assembly time
- Improved manufacturability through sheet-metal optimization and part consolidation
- Successfully deployed production units in operational classroom environments
