Toy Design Lab is a first-year Mechanical Engineering Class that focuses on the product development process and human-centered design.
With a group of 7 people, my group in the Toy Design Lab developed a competitive board game that was play-tested with children. We went through the entire brainstorming and narrowing down experience by prototyping 2 different toys and play-testing them with kids and utalized their feedback to develop our final product.
Prototyping + Product Testing
My role on the team was to prototype and develop the electronics behind the ship. After brainstorming and prototyping with my team, I was able to fit a reed sensor, on/off switch, LED, and battery in about 3cc!
Final Product + Team
