Project scope
Recently, we have been tasked with creating an automation system that can integrate a robot into a sorting system. The system will be based around a robot; the system will sort parts if the largest part is 4 mm and the smallest is 3 mm, then the robot will tag the parts as acceptable and send them for packaging. If the largest part is between 4 mm and 4.5 mm and the smallest part is between 2 mm and 3 mm, the robot will tag them for rework and send them down the rework line. Any parts that do not meet either of these requirements will be tagged for recycling and sent down the recycle line.
The scope of this project is clear in what we need to do. We can easily build our requirements off of this scope. So, before you proceed, try to lay out the requirements on your own. When you’re done, you can move on and compare your requirements to the actual requirements!
