Through this post, we would like to share the progress made over the past few days. Following the feedback received from Group 3, we have further refined the sketch of the selected design. The chosen design focuses on reducing the number of containers commonly found in kitchens. Moreover, recognizing that the target users are older adults, we have prioritized creating a product with a more accessible and user-friendly opening mechanism. With the design adjustments finalized, we have commenced the development phase, which involves creating a 3D model of the product. Below, we present an update on the ongoing progress. While the product is not yet complete, we aim to provide an overview of the process. The accompanying images illustrate the assembly of the product by components, offering insight into its development stages. We are committed to delivering a practical and thoughtfully designed solution and look forward to sharing further updates as we continue to refine and complete this project.

On November 14th, Groups 3 and 7 connected with the goal of providing feedback on our designs. We organized a video call through Google Meet, which allowed us to communicate across China, Mexico, and Spain. From our side, the call went very smoothly, and Group 3 was very friendly and kind. During the call, we discussed which designs each group should focus on improving. We recommended that they continue with Idea 6 and provided some feedback, which we also shared in writing on the platform on November 15th. We hope our suggestions were helpful, and we mentioned that they can reach out to us with any questions, either through the platform or via WhatsApp. Group 3 chose Emma’s second proposal. They also provided us with feedback on improvements we should make to the product. We will get to work on these suggestions in order to enhance the project. We would like to sincerely thank Group 3 for their help and commitment throughout this process. Their collaboration has been very valuable, and we truly appreciate their effort and support.

Today, November 14, 2023, we have organized a meeting with Group 3 to receive feedback on the designs created by each group. From the beginning, we agreed to meet on November 14 at 10:30 pm (Spanish time), taking into account the time differences between our teams. Group 3 is based in China, while in Group 7, one member resides in Mexico and the other two in Spain. We ultimately held the video call at 10:45 pm Spanish time, which is fairly late for our group, while for Group 3, it was 5:00 am. We would like to sincerely thank Group 3 for making the effort to join at such an early hour to collaborate. The goal of this meeting is to conduct a video call through the Meet application to exchange feedback on the current designs. We, as Group 7, took on the task of organizing the video call and selected Meet as the most suitable platform to facilitate the session and ensure that the process is as clear and productive as possible for everyone involved. Following the videoconference, we will work on implementing the suggested updates to the designs.
