Notes:

  • Some components (e.g. resistors) have minimum order quantities and therefore more than are actually used in the project have been ordered. Finding alternative suppliers for the parts can help reducing the final costs.
  • Prices indicated with an asterisk (*) do not include VAT.

Materials provided by UoG

As this project is done within the University of Glasgow, some components were provided by the university, or are second-hand parts from other projects. These are shown in the table below.
