Something about Copyright

In week four I used someone's design and he wrote at the bottom of the design his copyright. I removed that. I thought its ok because I want to use his design as a sticker for my laptop. Then I took the modified design without the copyright and I put it on my page to allow people to download it. Then Wendy saw that and she told me that this is not right because I cannot remove the copyright and put the file on my page. I can use his design as a sticker without the copyright but acknowledging his work on the page ONLY.

Income

I thought of that at the beginning and I think I must continue working to make a full system like a conveyor to deliver the workpiece and a gripper to put it in the packing machine. After building the system I could offer this to education minister to provide it to schools and institutes to simulate the work of factories also how they work in sequence. Also, I could sell it to big stores to help in packing. I could do injection moulding to produce the shape. Regarding the production of the boards, I could talk to to Seeed or DFrpbpt. This is a plan to get money but for me I dont want to get money from this project.

Fablab UAE

Dissemination, I didn't know what is the meaning so I asked Wendy and she explained to me.

 dissemination
dɪˌsɛmɪˈneɪʃn/
noun
noun: dissemination; plural noun: disseminations

    the act of spreading something, especially information, widely; circulation.
    "dissemination of public information"
        

Regarding dissemination, I choose to inspire young people of UAE and change them also to spread about fablab and personal fabrication, not to make money from the product also my page is part from dissemination I hope it helps people and future student in fabacademy. In Fablab UAE they offer me sponsorship for fab academy this year. In return, after the fab academy, I must make five workshops and one project I must do this in the same year so this means I have six months after the fab academy. Making workshop will help to atract young people. I must say that currently, I'm an undergraduate student - I will graduate next year so I will manage the two responsibilities which I am used to in the last six months. Since I talked above of going to the next step regarding the project I will integrate my skills in making the packing machine in the workshops and of course, I will make the conveyor and the gripper in the next project to integrate them with my Packing machine. For the workshops now I'm thinking of doing one in electronic production, also electronic design, and how to make a board for multiple servos. Wendy told us now that Hashim will make some workshops in the next year so I will be with him to assist and to learn how to make a workshop.

After one year

Till now I didn't plan what I will do in the fab lab. But I really want to test many of the things I mentioned in some weeks but I couldn't do because of time. Also, there are some projects I want to make but I will not say what they are now:). At that time I will have two or three subjects to take before graduation this means I will have free time.
