CAPSTONE PROJECT FINAL
For our STEM Senior Engineering capstone project, we are building a nap pod. In the beginning conceptualization of our project, our goal was to develop an energy efficient tiny house. As we researched more and more, we determined that while this was a fun idea, it would be impossible with the limited skills and budget we possess. Additionally, we worried that the finished tiny house would not get any use by future students, as it would just be a useless proof-of-concept building. This led to our current project, which is to build a nap pod where students can relax between classes that utilizes many of the energy efficient elements we researched. This demonstrates our house concept while simultaneously providing a stress-relieving environment students can use long after we leave the school.
