Masters of Engineering project: DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A PRECISE AND AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR THE DEPOSITION OF MICRO LITER FLUID VOLUMES.
This project was to design, build, and control a printer that would print proteins and nucleic acids onto a membrane in an automated fashion and with high levels of repeatability.
The system consists of an old commercial printer that has been stripped, a stepper motor connected to a syringe housed in a custom machined attachment, and a windows control application written in C++
For the full report, see the Thesis.pdf file.
NOTE: This program was written in 2002 to generate a windows 98 executible - Many of the underlying libraries, assemblies, etc have since been deprecated or updated.
