NASA Part Cataloging System NPCS

  • 1 Devlogs

Electronic part cataloging isn't tedious anymore! As a high school NASA Goddard intern, I was tasked with cataloging parts into a spreadsheet, and I was not happy. So instead, I decided to create a software that reads the words off of part labels. After intensive Python coding, I have finally finished it! Now other people at NASA are using it, mission accomplished. I have put the user experience first and tried to make it as efficient as possible.

This needs changes before we can consider it shipped. Review the Shipwright feedback, make updates, then ship again.

Shipwright walkthrough

Ship #1 Changes requested

I built an electronic part cataloging system for NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. As a high school intern, I was tasked with manually typing into a spreadsheet the part numbers, date codes, quantities, and more for each of the thousands of electronic components my mentor had. I decided that I’m at NASA for a reason, and that I could code something up in Python, and so NPCS (NASA Part Cataloging System) was born. This is the first coding project of this scale that I have ever made, and I am more than happy to get a few users at NASA. The whole project was challenging because I didn’t know many of the libraries I was using, so I had to learn them and use them at the same time, along with a million different technical challenges that would be way too long to list. I am really proud that this project became a reality, but upset that only 10 of those 34 hours count because I forgot to submit devlogs. To test the project, make sure you have a Windows computer, or at least a Windows VM, and follow the README.md instructions on my GitHub! There is also a sample label image on my GitHub for testing.
