# Getting Started

* This project has spawned from brainstorming for and working with Professor [Christy Spackman](https://search.asu.edu/profile/3344009)'s *Sense of Belonging* installation at ASU. I have also received guidance from Professor [Byron Lahey](https://search.asu.edu/profile/262186) and [Assegid Kidane](https://search.asu.edu/profile/215415) being granted their electronic lab resources.

The documentation is on a rather quirky attempt to realize a configurable, localized heating of fabrication material. Therefore, it is diverted away from conventional practice of simple making of a heater or a cooler for fabrication purposes. This is enforced by the choice of material as well—which in this case—is a *sugar glass*. That's right; it is a documentation on:

**1. Making of edible glass,** 

**2. Exploring the phase changes,** 

**3. Realizing the textural and tactile transitions.** 

Concepts to cover:

* [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**MEMS**</mark>
* [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**Thermodynamics specifically on**</mark>
  * [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**PTC Heating**</mark>
  * [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**Peltier effect/ Seeback effect**</mark>
* [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**Glass Crystallization**</mark>
* [ ] <mark style="color:purple;">**Rheological Properties**</mark>

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://a-thermoelectrical-texture-trans.gitbook.io/microheater-for-sugar-glass/sugar-glass-maker/getting-started.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
