The motivation for this project was to automate a redundant task necessary in surgery, the sanitization of surgical tools using an autoclave. For this project the team will be separated into two sub teams, one to model a sanitization container, and the other to program a Q-Arm to control the sanitization of surgical tools.

The requirements of the modeling sub team were to create a container to securely hold onto and facilitate the sanitization of a surgical tool, which can be picked up by a Q-Arm, while also minimizing the mass and materials used. The project requires to create the container according to the assigned footprint to make sure that the surgical tool would fits in properly. It is also important to creat a series of python codes that would control the robotic arm to pick up the container and transfer it to correct position with no error. The final model needs to meet the objectives of both modeling and computation to make sure that it would work perfectly in daily scenarios.
