Context
final project for GIX Fabrication and Physical Prototyping class
My role: UX researcher, product designer
Problem
We were prompted to create a prototype that would solve a problem everyone in the group faces. In our case, this was eating alone
Process
In the month we had for this project, my team researched possible solutions, drafted requirements documentation, and created iterative prototypes of various parts of our lunchbox.
our initial cardboard prototype
our second, laser-cut flute prototype
3D printed soup cup prototypes
our 3D printed lid and printed TPU gasket prototype
a teammate adjusting tolerances with a drill
me sanding down a moving part
our prototype sliding mechanism
Result
We designed a lunchbox that could split in two for two users to share and hold silverware and a soup cup.
