We had the EPS introduction, got to know each other better, started our first classes of the courses and we participated in the design thinking workshop where we were identifying problems and brainstorming about different design ideas. The chosen subject is 'our city experiences'. So far we're thinking about improving garbage bins in the city.

This week we did a lot of research for our topic. We also presented our ideas to the supervisors. We finished the design thinking workshop and narrowed down the problems we are focusing on. After that we worked on the Global Sprint Plan, the Project Backlog and the Initial Sprint Plan.

We continued the research and changed our idea based on the conclusion of the state of the art. Additionally, we talked about our team roles and started to divide the tasks a little.

This week we started with structural drafts for the app and the bin and made a list of components and materials. We also set our project name and created the logo.

This week we finished the market analysis and startet to think about our marketing campaign. Furthermore we developed the cardboard and the 3D model for the bin. For the app we started to collect design ideas.

This week we finished our cardboard scale model and continued on Project Management, Marketing, the bin design and functions as well as the development of our app.

This 2 weeks we were working on the markering plan, design and development of the application. We made also the cost structure, sustainability, ethics, project management, project development, procurement part and made progress in the 3D model.

We completed and uploaded all necessary wiki entries and prepared slides for the interim presentation. The presentation took place at the end of the week.

In this week we included the feedback in our wiki and continued working on the webapp as well as on the 3D model.

We implemented the feedback, programmed for the app, delivered the details voor de 3d print model, conducted an stress-analysis, worked on the hardware and worked on the flyer and glossary.

We implemented the feedback on the packaging solution and created more visuals for our social media account e.g. a GIF.

In this week we worked on the paper, completed the lasts chapter on WIKI and also clarified the details for the campaign e.g. choosing the sound for out Tik Tok Video. Furthermore, we worked on finishing the app development as well.

This week we completed the user manual as well as all the frontend for our app. Moreover we filmed some scenes for our advertisement video and worked on the paper.

We made the final presentation, cutted the video's, finalized the paper and we assembled the bin.

1. Presentation
2. Modus operandi
3. Project proposals
4. Electronic logbook (Wiki)

We brainstormed about our preferences of the project proposals.

1. Pitch
2. Problem Solving
3. Discussion

We presented our idea to supervisors and discussed the problem we want to focus on.

• Present state of the art
• Backlog
• Global sprint plan
• Gantt chart
• Feedback
• Discussion

First, we presented the research results to our supervisors. Then we got feedback on how to improve the current state of the text and the gantt chart.

• Present the new version of our state of the art research
• Explain our project idea
• Feedback / Comments on our project
• Advise for the next steps

In this meeting our project idea was confirmed by the supervisors. Now we just need to think of a way to combine the action of throwing trash in the bin with the app. We had questions about the black box and the bin prototype and got help with that. Moreover, we talked about the To-Do’s for next week.

• 3D model
• List of components and materials
• Feedback
• Discussion

In this meeting our 3D model was confirmed by the teachers. We need to keep working on the 3D model, compare different materials and get a list of the components of our structure.

• Updated list of materials and components
• Cardboard scale model
• App progression
• Feedback
• Discussion

In this meeting our cardboard scale model got confirmed. We also received feedback on our Wiki layout. Moreover, we talked about the next steps we have to do.

• Show wireframe
• Feedback on Wiki
• Discussion

During this meeting we showed our wireframes and the lectors liked the design. We also taked a bit about the content of the intrim presentation.

• Interim Presentation Feedback
• 3D Model for 3D-printing
• Stress Analysis
• Questions

We presented the 3D model and spoke about the material list. Moreover, we discussed some questions about the stress analysis and the 3D printing.

• App Design
• Questions
  • Wiki Liability part
  • Campaign details as part of Project Developement in Wiki?
  • Audio/Video Equipment

This Meeting was mainly about getting answers to all our questions.

• Packaging solution feedback
• App functions feedback
• Details end presentation

In this meeting we received feedback on the packaging solution which included to rethink about the inner packaging material and to give the packaging a second lifecycle.

• Packaging solution improvement
• Poster, Social Media Campaign
• Question about Functional Tests

We presented our improved packaging solution and our final posters. Our questions regarding the functional tests could be answered.

• 3D-Model
• Simulation Files
• Paper

In this meeting we talked about the finishing aspects which need to be done. Moreover, we received feedback on the paper.

• 3D-Model Video
• Manual
• Individual Assessment

We presented our manual and the new 3D model video. We looked at the paper together and also received information about the grading system.

• Printing costs
