Make any additional decisions that are needed after your detailed concept refinement and implement (as a team) your final design. Within reason and project constraints, work towards a looks-like, works-like, as to be manufactured prototype. Regardless, be sure that the prototype realistically portrays the intended user experience. While there are many aspects to the final implementation, it is hoped that you will obtain practice in finishing and detailing techniques needed to create an elegantly crafted prototype that reflects well-integrated, high-quality engineering and industrial/user-centric design. The work will be graded as a team. To start Identify what needs to be done, develop a schedule, and allocate tasks. Implement Please feel free to ask for help or advice. |

Keep in mind that the client is interested in doing a very limited volume "test sale" in the store to see which products might merit larger volume production, provided that the designs can be executed at a sufficient level.
Prepare your submission
Your team will make a 15 minute, well-prepared final presentation to the
class and client during
class.
Additionally, a final web page submission by the team is required. Check out the examples (example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4). This page should highlight the design's intent, rationale, and features. It should convey the user experience and, if needed, provide user instructions. An exploded assembly is required along with critical sub-system design details. Individuals responsible for different subsystems/aspects of the design should be identified. Finally, there should be a discussion of open issues, problems, or areas of concern.
Please see the submission instructions for additional details. See the results!
