-Every project needed to be planned carefully because a project plan gave an overview of all the tasks and deliverables that needed to be completed. Having a good project plan and following it well allowed the smooth running of the project, and kept the project running on schedule. Table {{ref>tpjctpn}} shows the planning used for this project. In [[report#time|Chapter 3.3]] there is a comprehensive project plan including a Gantt chart.+Every project needed to be planned carefully because a project plan gives an overview of all the tasks and deliverables that need to be completed.

 To begin with the architecture of the prototype, a cardboard model was made as a first approach to find out the optimal dimensions and opening system of the "EscarGO" that did not require an extra amount of free space around for its movement. The Team also used it to show the curtain system. It can be seen in Figures {{ref>fcard1}}, {{ref>fcard2}} and {{ref>fcard3}}. To begin with the architecture of the prototype, a cardboard model was made as a first approach to find out the optimal dimensions and opening system of the "EscarGO" that did not require an extra amount of free space around for its movement.

 The Team had to do some brainstorming in order to fix the flaws found in the first design. The original pivoting opening system was not very likely to be long lasting, and therefore unsustainable. In order to keep the cover removal simple, the group decided not to host the technologies inside the cover and add a chamfer instead for that purpose. These changes in the product (see Figure {{ref>ffinal}}) were intended to make the "EscarGO" more user friendly. The Team had to do some brainstorming in order to fix the flaws found in the first design.

 In this sub-section, the final 3D model is shown. The Team decided to use another technique for opening the terrarium instead of the pivoting system. The dimensions of the "EscarGO" would be 400 mm x 300 mm x 375 mm. Figure {{ref>f3d2}} shows an overview of the whole product. In this sub-section, the final 3D model is shown.
