On the past saturday we made an arduino project. Arduino is a microcontroller that allows you to control leds, motors, lcd's, speaker, etc. You can make and design a lot of things using Arduino. At first it was very difficult to work with it, because we didn't know anything about it. We needed to know about programming and also understand circuits so we could make a prototype for a social intervention. My team and I focused on the problem that in a caffeteria, students normally are indifferent to other unknown people. So we made a kind of Simon says way using arduino; this game will be on a table so you can play with a person you don't know and while doing it you will be interacting between each other. A thing I learned that day: We can do anything that we come up with, if we persist and have our goal well defined.
Today, we learned about food and how to innovate with it. Since food is a necessity, everyone buys it. So, food is a powerful material because it can be/ has been anchored, can connect people and makes them feel, share ideas, makes people feel comfortable and simple it is life by itself. Food combined with a multi-sensory experience can produce a great effect on the customer. An example are the fruit- fireworks that combines visual, smelling, and posible tasting experience; you can search it on the internet to see the people's reactions.
I leave you a mindmap that my team and I did.
That's all for today, wish you the best !
