Update 4/19

 

  • Meeting with user
  • Simos and David going to visit Daniel on Saturday, the 22nd
  • Simos is going to collect the prototypes from Bri at the JC at 1:30 pm, and if Bri needs to leave early than Bri can drop it off with Alden to drop it off to Simos
  • Alden is going to drop off their prototypes with Simos at the Mix at 4:30 pm

 

  • Container (Alden & David)
  • No major updates
  • Plastic container
  • Has wheels
  • 3 compartments differing in size
  • Removable lid
  • Working on handles
    • Might use plastic bag crocheted strips as handles (durable and flexible)

 

  • Food heating container (Simos, Aravind, & Fathi)
  • Found out that iron heating components are too large
  • Going to take apart the toaster for the heating component
    • In the testing period
  • We need a more enormous container or more minor heating component
  • Obtained almost all necessary parts for the prototype

 

  • Pillow & Blanket (Bri)
  • Working on the 2nd half of the second prototype and planning to finish it tomorrow
  • Blanket
    • For the 2nd prototype, instead of having a full size blanket, we are going to design test patches for the user to test out and see what works best
    • The design will be in the shape of a granny squares, one out of yarn and maybe one out of plastic with a possible exfoliating scrubber out of the plastic
    • The granny squares will be like a sample of the blanket
