Noah Grant developed and refined rover chassis components for the UBC-Snowbots/Chassis repository, focusing on CAD-driven mechanical design and product development. Over three months, he delivered new frame assemblies, integrated a modular baseplate, and introduced front and side shell CAD files to enhance structural integrity and manufacturability. His work emphasized asset hygiene by removing obsolete files, ensuring clarity for future development. Using CAD, SLDASM, and SLDPRT, Noah applied mechanical engineering best practices and version control to enable production-ready handoffs and rapid iteration. The depth of his contributions established a robust, flexible chassis foundation, reducing deployment risk and supporting future upgrades.

October 2025 focused on advancing the rover chassis design and asset hygiene for UBC-Snowbots/Chassis. Key work centered on ongoing CAD design updates and new frame assets for the rover frame assembly, including integration considerations for the 2026 frame. Multiple CAD improvements increased the accuracy, fit, and manufacturability of the frame components, with updates spanning new frame CAD, updates to existing parts/assemblies, and orientation-piece refinements. Asset hygiene improvements included removing an obsolete binary CAD asset to prevent confusion during frame development.
