Approach

During the project, the prototype will be developed by means of a design process. This process consists of multiple phases. Firstly, the problem will be defined as well as the design goal to solve the problem. Secondly, the functional and technical requirements of the prototype will be specified taking into account time, money and resources. From these requirements, it is possible to create concepts for the design. Next, details will be added to the design and the design will be realized. Lastly, tests will be performed to see if the prototype satisfies the requirements. This process can be summarized in the following steps:

1. 

   Graphical representation of the steps of the design process.
   Define problem
2. Specify requirements
3. Preliminary design
4. Detailed design
5. Prototyping
6. Testing

Given that the final presentations will be planned in week 8 of the course, this process will have a time period of seven weeks. Therefore, every step is expected to be completed within one week, with the exception of the detailed design since this is the most important and difficult step which will therefore require more time. So the time will be managed as follows, step 1 will be completed in week 1, step 2 in week 2, step 3 in week 3, step 4 in weeks 4 and 5, step 5 in week 6 and step 6 in week 7. In this way, all deliverables are finished in week 8.

Another important aspect of the design process is communication. Therefore, a weekly meeting is scheduled to discuss the progress and task division as well as a weekly work session. The meetings and work sessions will be scheduled on Wednesday from 10:30-11:30 and Monday 11:30-12:30 respectively.
