Zebrano Wood Portfolio Case with iPad frame

Hardware engineering is the process of designing and creating the physical components of a product. In this case, the hardware engineering process would involve designing and building the sound-responsive system for the portfolio case. This would involve choosing the appropriate sensors and microcontrollers, as well as programming the case to respond to sound in a specific way. I needed to consider the durability and functionality of the case, as it will be used to store and display important documents and projects.

Wood craftspersonship is the process of creating and shaping wood into a desired form. In this case, the wood craftsmanship process would involve designing and building the portfolio case itself. This would involve selecting the appropriate wood for the project, as well as choosing the appropriate tools and techniques for shaping and finishing the wood. I also needed to consider the size and dimensions of the case, as well as the overall aesthetic of the finished product.

Overall, the process of designing a sound-responsive music sensitive portfolio case would involve both hardware engineering and wood craftsmanship, as the case would need to both function as a sound-responsive system and be made of wood. This process would likely involve multiple iterations and prototypes, as the engineer and craftsperson would need to test and refine their designs to ensure that the final product meets the desired specifications.
