Assignment 1 Group 3 Wenhui Cai Lele Cao Janis Meissner Tingran Tao
How to Work • Individual observation • Analysis • Brainstorming for problems • Vote • Brainstorming for concepts • Six hats
Individual observation • First, we decided to use bodystorming method. • Everyone of us went to the public transportation, observed and interviewed people both staffs and customers. • We also watched the facilities located in public place, which is used to serve passerby.
Observation • People • Mother with young kid • Family with large luggage • Teenagers • Place • Timetables in bus stops • Things • Elevators • Vending machine
Analysis • Then,we gathered together to share our observation results. • We presented what we have seen and what the problems we thought they could be. • At this moment, we made lots of notes about problems, that seems to be brainstorming…
Brainstorming for problems • As I talked before, we took lots of notes about problems we had found. • Stick them on a wall… • We chose only 10 big problems among much more things.
Vote • Since we had 10 big problems that we had to choose 3 of them to focus on. • We vote for them. • Then we chose “boredom”, ”route planning” and “non-locals”.
Brainstroming for concepts • Since we had concentrated on the 3 main problems, we started another round of brainstorming to find some design concepts about these problems. • About “boredom” issue, we came up with 2 creative concepts: play wagon & double speed. • About “route planning” & “non-locals” issues, we found 1 concept: automatic route planning machine.
Six hats • After warm discussion, we decided to choose the concept “play wagon”. • The reason is: • “Double speed” –too unrealistic. Black hat. • “Automatic route planning machine” –only minor portion of customers may use this. Black hat. • “play wagon” –very creative things that may be very attractive. Green hat.
Play wagon • A train which has carriages embedded with many pleasure things. For instance, movie carriage or video game carriage. • This can make the trip underground more interesting and more attractive. • Also, advertisements could be introduced in these carriages, which will be profitable for both public transportation department and commercial communities.
Automatic route planning machine • A machine that can be used to look up route information. • It is often used by the new passengers or non-locals.
Double speed • 2 parallel trains • One is always moving • The other is used to let passengers get on, it is hooked when the left train arrives. • Unhooked when arrives at next station. • Reduce the waiting time
The end • Special thanks to Fenni Kang. • Thank you for your attention!
