This project has been done before. However, it is still a good design project. Your focus should be on making the user experience engaging given that you will be dealing with infrequent impatient users.

All sounds good. Approved

Good changes. Approved.

Many self styled Temple entrepreneurs have tried to solve this problem while ignoring the fact that the vendors have no interest in cooperating, what is the benefit to them? However, much as I dislike the business idea, this could be an interesting design project if you focus on the roommate finding. If you are willing to do that then fine.…[Read more]

Okay the project is approved with the provision that it will be a ‘high quality speaker with an engaging interactive experience’.

Okay sounds reasonable. Approved. However, you will need to identify the design challenge here. For example, “provide practical feedback in one minute” or “communicate X bits of complex information”

All the design challenges sound great. If you remain focused on those and not the details of building a standard inventory management system then this will be a great project. Approved.

Sounds good. Project approved.

Hmm. I thought I responded on this one but don’t see it here. In any case here goes again: Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: 1. Where will you get the data on supplements? If you can’t get that then your life will be too hard. 2. Who will do the matching of food to conditions – or is that already available?

Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: Please confirm by searching that this has not been done before either in an APP or some public service site.

Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: 1. How is this different from the shared motorcycle battery idea? I think it has been extensively implemented in Hong Kong (not sure of the location). 2. What is the design challenge here? It sounds like you find the spot and then you are done?

Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: 1. Have you searched the app store for similar ideas? I think i have seen apps like these. 2. What is the design challenge here? It sounds like an inventory management system – so are you envisioning using a similar conceptual model?

Not sure about this project: 1. The Apple speaker is all about quality? Have you seen that? Sonos? 2. There are many good speakers available – and people who are audiophiles will sneer at streaming so are you going to pair excellent speakers with streaming or if stored on the tablet then how will the music get on the tablet? 3. I can’t visualize…[Read more]

Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: 1. So this is in addition to self-checkout lanes? 2. Have you reviewed Amazon’s cashier less store yet? How is this different?

Could be a good project. To gain approval please answer the following: So is this a self help tool? Who will run it? Volunteers? Or will it sell products (the ‘horoscope’)? Why do people need education? I.e., what is difficult to understand?

Good project. It is approved. As a next step, consider modelling the process of what the group does and then identifying the challenges in each phase of the process.
