Key Guard 96 Cells Proloquo2Go for GoNow Rugged

thingiverse

Update: Crafted a new one piece guardian to fit the iPad Air and GoNow Air case. Update: Redesigned the guardian with no overlap. A small channel on top of the right hand side allows me to use a handheld 3D pen to weld the two sides together using the original filament. Below is the direction for making other Proloquo cell configurations. Using the iPad with Proloquo: 1. Capture a screen shot of a blank 96 cell Proloquo board. 2. Edit the picture in MS Paint to fill in the areas around the cells with black. 3. Upload the picture to: (Online Convert.com) https://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-svg and convert it to a svg file. 4. Import the svg file into Tinkercad at 19.336% (This resizes the svg file to the exact width of an iPad screen.) 5. Change object from a solid to an empty and place over a box with the same dimensions and join the two items. This makes your template. 6. Change the template from a solid to an empty and center over a box with the dimensions: 212.58 mm X 165.10 mm. 7. Join the two items. If you have a large enough 3D printer, you can just print this file. Otherwise split it into two sides. This is a guardian for an augmentative communication device made by combining a GoNow Rugged case and an iPad 2 with the Proloquo2Go app 96 cells and message window size set to very small. A guardian helps eliminate accidental activation by touch of other cells. I connected the two halves using a 3D pen with the same filament. The guardian is held in place by its outer edge and is placed first inside the GoNow Rugged case followed by the iPad.
