Environmental Impact Manufacturing: Hazardous chemicals used in manufacturing PCB, ICs, LCD, Plastics Normal Use: Power consumption/Ozone Estimated 2500W at full volume Arcs create Ozone Disposal: Non-biodegradeable/Metals ICs, PCB, Large amounts of iron and copper
3
Addressing Environmental Impact Manufacturing: Chemicals concern Small PCB area RoHS compliant manufacturer Lead-free solder Normal Use: Power/Byproducts concern Operate at lower volumes Use for limited amounts of time Disposal: Metals and non-biodegrables Proper disposal and recycling of PCB Proper recycling of iron cores and copper windings Re-use Acrylic case
4
Ethical Challenges Safety: Strong electrical and magnetic fields Shock/Burn Fire Core explosion Seizures Misuse: Operating without protective faraday/plastic cages Giant electrical interference/jammer machine Death Ray?
5
Addressing Ethical Challenges Safety: Employ safety protocol in a detailed handbook Include warning labels Use only with a faraday cage and plastic isolation box Misuse: Remove access to programing pins Only allow operation with cage/box on
