Team:UCLouvain/Badge
The design of the badge has been a significant part of our work. It must be small, practical and bio-secure, preventing our bacteria from escaping into the environment. As our badge is specifically made to be used outside the lab, the biosecurity aspect needed careful attention. To respect these specifications, we decided to set it up as an assembly of three separate pieces, all of which can be 3D printed. Some parts are also safely reusable, so you don’t have to replace the entire badge when it is used.
The first one is the support, that can be attached to a bracelet by simply pulling it through the gaps on both edges. This part will never get in contact with the bacteria and is thus reusable. The middle part of the support contains a hole, allowing the second part of the badge to come in and to be secured, thanks to the groove on the side and on the bottom.
