Cardstuff Project-Sheet 1

The project involved the creation of a product named Cubulletin, a cube-shaped bulletin board designed to help with reminders and note-keeping. The design process included both manual work and conceptual planning, resulting in a prototype constructed from card stock paper and toothpicks.

Reflection

Contributions
During the course of the design process, I helped out with cutting the toothpicks (where I got my aformentioned bruise), as well as with the idea itself.
What could have been changed
If so, I was thinking of adding a piece of cork to one of the walls of the Cubulletin, so that it could actually act like a bulletin board.
Do any pieces of cork live in the tech design room?
What I disliked
I did a bit of the manual work, and at one point, I got a bruise in my finger!
What I liked
I liked that I was able to help my group with the planning process and the actual construction of our prototype.
What I thought
When we thought of the idea, I even thought about making a few places to put pins in.
When we made this prototype, I was satisfied with what we did because I instantly imagined what it would do.

Design Process: How we made our product, Cubulletin

Test and Evaluate
A test of the product is slated to take place at Kyle Nurse (our group leader)'s house sometime before he gets back to me.
Realization
The toothpicks were taped together by Scotch tape, and were used to seal the edges of the cube.
We used the card stock paper provided, as well as a set of toothpicks, to hold the edges together.
Working drawings
A drawing was created on Google Drawings,
Best Solution
Cubes are also used in everyday lives for more than ever.
We figured that a bulletin board in a cube, like our eventual product, Cubulletin, was the best solution when we found that cubes were very popular, such as the Rubik's Cube, a puzzle game, and its spinoffs.
Investigation and research
Bulletin boards can also be large, with too much detail.
Some people rarely have phones, while reminder apps such as Google Keep have about 50,000,000 downloads.
Causes of memory loss include Alzheimer's disease, aging, depression, side effects of medication, alcohol abuse, lack of vitamin B12, stress and worry, illnesses, absentmindness, misattribution, suggestibility, anxiety, and others.

Suggestibility: Easily influenced by suggestion.

Misattribution: Not considering a quality of a person

Design Brief
By having something to look at, you would know about reminder, imporant dates, and more, easily.
Our plan was to make a bulletin board in a cube.
Design Problem
You would also have to walk a long way over to bulletin boards.
Sure, phones, such as my own Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (co-owned by Bell, Koodo, and Best Buy Mobile) have apps that can do the reminders for you, but what about when the battery dies?
It is important that people keep forgetting things throughout the day.
