Notable Personal Contributions
Many of my ideas and concepts from individual ideation are seen in the final prototype, ranging from the cat-theme of the final design to the focus on non-academic activities in the device's reminders. My ideation images can be found at the bottom of the page. These social activity reminders formed the basis of our cultural probe cards during our research phase.
I designed and built the final physical prototype, and worked with the team on the digital interface prototype. After delivering the prototype to the team, they installed the Particle Photon IoT components used for our demonstration.
I was also responsible for writing the script for our demonstration video, which my team members used to film our demonstration. I then completed all video editing for the demo video to use in our final presentation. The demo video is above, and galleries for the in-class final presentation and ideation process can be viewed below.
