Team Work of 2 -MY PART Ideation-Research-2D-Wireframe-3D

Function

Problem My friends find it a little bit tough and boring to make progress learning guitar on their own. According to my experience as a guitar player, focusing on the guitar itself leads to faster progress and brings more fun to the player.

For guitar players, a capo and a tuner is always needed. I also have a hobby to always learn some simple tunes for fun instead of training myself to master tough tunes all the time, which the service of G-fancy could teach me.

The light guidance should be projected from above the fingerboard,and the device should be attached to the guitar while being in use.

Finally I design the form of G-Fancy referring to that of a capo, which fulfills both demands and makes it possible for the device to be used as a real capo.

Where of fingerboard to press ?

The angle of the red laser light is changeable, so that the light can reach every part of the fingerboard.

After learning for a few months, reading scores will be easier and faster than following the guidance of device. Therefore, if the product is only for those who just begin to play the guitar, its lifecycle will be rather short. In order to lengthen its lifecycle, we try to make it more useful in future use.

Project 3

A-task Band counting weightlifting times by pressure sensor, and indicating workout schedule via vibration unit and guidance light for people who do weight trainings.

Individual work Prototype with arduino

Brief Introduction

Term

Muscle Training

RM: One maximum repetition (1 RM) is used to indi- cate the most weight you can lift for one repetition. If you can do two repetitions, it means that you did not use sufficient wei- ght for it to be a true maximum repetition.

Background Usually, people building up their bodies in gym have their workout schedules. A weekly schedule includes which days to do the training, how many types of exercise, how many groups and how many times you should do in a single group.

Upper Body 8~12 RM / Group

Problem

Discovered in weight training process Although I have been following my schedule for nearly half a year, I still hardly remember clearly.I asked some people training in the gym and they also encounter such problem.

Also, we sometimes forget about how many groups or how many times in we have already done during the training.

For those people who wish to train precisely and efficiently , they feel better if they could have good control of the entire training process.

1

The counting function can be designed according to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s motion. I go through the possibilities of using heart rate sensor, EEG sensor, IR distance sensor to identify the motion, but these are all too complex for a simple device I wish to use in gyms.

Since most weight training exercises are relevant to dumbells, I think pressure sonsor can be applied.

It can identify whether the user is doing exercise and how many times he has done.

Lower Body 12~15 RM / Group

Rely on mobile phones to remember the schedule

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the next exercise?

Counting Mechanism

2

Forget how many groups of exercise one has done How many have I done?

Forming Light is used as the indicator of how many times I have done the exercise, so it should be seen from various angles. I also try to make the users be sure that they have worn the A-task band right, which is what the part with ring patterns designed for.

Sense pressure & Turn on

Identify pressure change & Count

When the user starts to hold a dumbbell, the hand senses pressure.

People lift up and put down the dumbbells when working out, thus leading to change in pressure felt by hands.

Angle lights be seen From Above

From Side

Using Process

The signals are easy to recognize with only light and vibration, and using the A-task band will not change the original process.

Mobile App

Prototyping

The main function is to set schedules and send to the connected band.

Moreover, the user can check the battery condition with the app.

Project 4

Eyetouch Walking stick featuring tangible GPS navigation and projected warning sign to remind pedestrians for the blind.

Team work of 2 -MY PART Ideation-Research-Interviewing-2D-3D

Problem There are a lot of problems the blind are facing every single day. Among them we always hear about complaints concerning traffics , so we decide to focus on making their walking in the city more secure and well-guided, just like non-disabled people.

Lacking guide dogs

Avoid Barriers

Going Out Navigation

Interview

Conducted in a massage parlor of the blind in Beijing

We asked the blind massagers about their daily life and how, when and where they usually go around in Beijing. We noticed some shocking facts that we didn’t even think of as ordinary people. After analysing the information we got, we picked two significant problems to work on.

Motivation

1

Can’t hear the guidance in noisy places

Lacking methods to detect objects up above Not safe to go through crossroads without warning tone

Since the walking stick is like the blind people’s reliable companion, and where most of interactions between them and the outside world take place when walking, we picked the walking stick as our target product.

Bus seldom give next-stop announcements Hard to hear the voice guidance through earphone in noisy spots

2

Touch to guide

Project to remind people nearby

The blind can be guided by touching better than hearing, which is unreliable because of the ever-changing surroundings.

We assume that signals can be projected ahead to remind both people behind and ahead of them to leave a space for the blind.

Bump into people in darkness

Forming We hope it to be handy and easy to use. Fashion is also considered as an important element, because it is our wish that instead of being ashamed of using it, the blind would feel good to use the product just as people use beautiful products like electric razors.

The folding form inreases the portability of the walking stick .

The gradient color paint

inreases the visibility of Eyetouch.

Using Steps The using steps is designed to be as easy as possible, so that the blind do not have to change anything when using Eyetouch stick. Just open the GPS navigation app in the mobile phone, grab the stick, and then the sensor detects your touch, leading to the stick turn on automatically.

to remind people nearby Noticing different signals including walking ahead, turning left, and turning right, the people nearby will know which direction the blind people are going. Therefore, they can leave enough space for the blind to walk.

Change Makes Change Change Donation System using cloud technology to provide real-time interaction for donors and an effective way to control fund and data flow for charities and stores.

Individual work

Research

1

Questionnaire research conducted with 50 people near 7-Eleven stores in Beijing.

No feedback to donators

Noticing that an increasing number of donation boxes occur in stores, I take all the stakeholders including the charity, donators, and stores, into consideration. In an effort to enhance the entire system, I choose the donation box as a medium, where most interactions will take place.

Process Analysis In the original change donation process, it costs large amount of time and money, thus making the current change donation system work in a low-efficiency way. Considering all the three stakeholders including donators, charities and the stores where donation boxes are placed in, the process is far from offering satisfying user experience to them. After the analysis of the process, I focus on a few steps which could be better designed.

FEEDBACK

Keep the coins

A lot of cost to count coins

Brainstorming I start from the three main stakeholders in this donation system, and try to find out how to improve the user experience one by one. Later, I try to combine some detailed functions together into one function, thus making the system simpler.

GIVE CHANGE WISH TO DONATE Happiness of helping others Receive thanks

Eye-catching donation box

Give the donation in a total amount

Key Solution

Gathering and calculating coins is exhausting because stores spread over the city. Therefore, the process will be much simpler if the coins can be counted once they enter the donation box.

This key solution makes the starting point of the whole design process.

This map shows everything that is flowing inside the system, like material, fund, information, and energy.

The donation box serves as the medium that connect donators, stores and charities. When the system starts working , all the stakeholsers get what they want in an easier way than ever before.

INFORMATION

Original Normal change donation system does not provide pleasant user experience for any stakeholder. The two commonly applied solutions make either the store or the charity suffers from counting the coins.

I pick the “Charity count coins” system model as an illustration to show how it works.

User Experience

New The design of the new donation system greatly raises the efficiency and user experience of all stakeholders, as the charity saves time and money in gathering and calculating coins, donators receive warm feedback at once and easily get access to project info, and the stores get coins to reuse.

The donation box counts the coins once they enter the box, and it also upload the data immediately to the cloud system of how much money is donated. The bluetooth key is used to open the box and connect to the cloud system. Once connected, the money will be tranferred automatically from the store’s account to the charity’s. The key is meant to be given to the cashier of each store so that they can regularly open the box and upload the data on time.

Social Significance

Change Makes Change donation system integrates my concept of REAL-TIME, USER-FRIENDLY, and EFFICIENT. The use of internet in a large scope helps to remove the barriers among charities and stores, which might incre- ase the possibility of their cooperating with each other. While enhancing the interaction with donators is likely to arise people’s awareness of donating money, it is not only a donation system, but also a medium to link the whole society. It also helps to create a more transparent donation environment because of the real-time track, which means everyone has access to see how much money has been donated and how the donaiton has been used.

Data is classified in several catagoties when being uploaded to the Cloud, so that future analysis and fund flow will be controled easily by the charity. The new system also makes it easier for us to design and apply fun real-time interactions between the boxes and donators, making the system a more friendly and efficient one than the current change donation system.

New Functions

Considering the scenarios in which people use mobile phones, we emphasize concise layouts, cutting most of the unnecessary functions.

User Page

We did research on which funtions to cut to make sure that the remaining functions still meet the demands of customers, including browsing, encryption, and annotation either in the form of sound or text. Moreover, while there are plenty of templates available online, it should not be hard to write some simple documents in urgent need.

It creates an efficient way of online file transferring among colleagues.

Hopefully, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have an easy and efficient way to transfer files to your colleagues, upload files to the cloud storage or download former files from them.

Interface on iPad The interface on iPad is much larger in size than on mobile phone, and is suitable for more editing and browsing functions. Thus, we add more functions in editing interface and make good use of the space. Basically, it is designed in a style in consistent with the interface on mobile phones.

Resource Page Other than cloud storage, you can get access to websites providing online resource via Yozo office, so that you can download pictures or essays and use them as you wish.
