Latest Design

Here are a few images from our latest design, this is what we are trying to manufacture for next week!

Survey results from users

And now the results from our user survey, thanks again to everyone!






If you could change or add one thing what would it be?

Beta Prototype Survey results, from appearance

Here are the results from our beta surveys. Thanks to eveyone who participated!
First the survey from appearance:

Latest Prototype

So we have made our beta prototype, its got a silicone handle so it never gets hot and it locks in the upright and side positions.



If you have tried any of our prototypes please take our user survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?A=196084343E26386
I will include this to the right with the other clickable links.
Even if you haven't gotten a chance to try it yourself please take our survey if you have any thoughts or opinions about the project.

Form studies

At this point we need to decide on an industrial design form. We would love to get your feedback on your favorites so please let us know which ones you like, which ones you don't, what you might wish for, and why.


And along with our sketchs we have also made CAD renderings please let us know what you think of these as well!

Presentation

Jean and I just got back from presenting our ideas so we would like to share a few of the slides we used in our presentation. At the core of our design program is a desgin process:

We did a fair amount of general reserach (we call it needfinding) before we chose to focus our efforts on single handed use. We then made a bunch of prototypes and took them out to test with users. From the feedback we received we came back and changed our prototypes as well as making new ones.

Once we get to a finalized product idea we hope to make this design appealing to a larger audience, this will not be an assistive device, we hope it will be a desirable new pot handle that is useful for everyone! This is a diagram which we used in our presentation to display this concept:
