Modular Design

Modular Design Approach Modular design, or “modularity in design�, is an approach that subdivides a system into smaller parts called modules or skids, that can be independently created and then used in different systems. A modular system can be characterized by functional partitioning into discrete scalable, reusable modules; rigorous use of well-defined modular interfaces; and making use of industry standards for interfaces.

Modularity offers benefits such as reduction in cost (due to less customization), shorter learning time, flexibility in design, augmentation (adding new solution by merely plugging in a new module), and exclusion.

Modular Spacecraft

Modular Common Spacecraft Bus (MCSB) The Modular Common Spacecraft Bus (MCSB) is a fast-development, lowcost, general purpose spacecraft platform. Its modular design is intended to reduce the cost, complexity, and lead time on missions by providing a reliable, well-characterized system that can carry a variety of payloads.

According to NASA, “the spacecraft is roughly one tenth the price of a conventional unmanned mission and could be used to land on the Moon, orbit Earth, or rendezvous with near-Earth objects.

Idea

Modular Spaceship I wanted to make a spaceship with modular design approach. Firstyl I started with basic shapes and using same shapes in different scales. After bringing these shapes together to have modular design.

To use augmanted reality, I tried to keep 3D models with low polygong numbers for more fluent AR experience. At the end I’m planning to track 3D printed object and add modular additional parts in AR space with 3D digital models.
