Smart Product Design
Icebreakers
My smart product design class mainly explored the use and application of Arduino IDE and small electronics using C++ coding. We were tasked the create a smart product with a timing element, different intervals of time, and a cancel button. I decided to develop a game intended to make speed dating a little less uncomfortable. My game, Icebreakers, randomly selects a conversation starter and sets a timer for three different time lengths. My functioning model encouraged user interaction and was voted one of the top models in the class.
