    Nathan Vogel wrote a new post, Do Not Disturb While Focusing 7 years, 2 months ago

    Dear CHIC community!

    In order to move forward more quickly, we’ve decided to start focusing less on getting feedback from users of our early prototypes, but to start more concretely building our product. We’ve been able to try many of the aspects of our products with external people (a big thanks to all of them!) and while […]

    Dear CHIC Community,

     

    The past Milestones have not always been easy. However, with time and dedication we came to a good idea that fit within our competences and within the time remaining. Our last pivot seems to be good and we are now going full speed on this project.

    Oversee and its product, the Winko, is a little snap-joining device that helps supervisors to be sure that the kids […]

    Kudos to the 3 teams for having shown some major progress at the 2nd prototyping milestone.

    While there is still some pivoting in the air, one starts to get a sense of where the teams are heading. In no […]

    Hello everybody!

    We presented our progress at MS3 about a month ago. Since then, we’ve been working hard trying to deconstruct and implement all the feedback from our supervisors. Here’s a summary of what happened.

    Our starting point for this milestone was the following MVP:

    Build a device that makes music learning fun for kids.

    The only problem now was that no […]

    Hi all,

    This week we met with our supervisors to come to an agreement after the designer’s midterms evaluation which did not go as expected. Yes we changed our project again a little bit but this time, to open up to more possibilities and to have more flexibilities in the use cases. Our previous approaches were very specific to a small problem which is not bad as such because it can really make […]

    Dear CHIC community,

    Here we are, end of April and the project is starting to feel much more real. Things are evolving fast now and you know what ? Designers chose our magic number…8 ! There are 8 notes on a scale so there’s going to be 8 actionable LEDs on our plushtoy.  And by the way, our plush toy will look nothing like a cute little monster, […]

    Dear CHIC community,

    Some time has passed since the last blog post, and spent some time exploring different directions in terms of technology, design and business. Alex (industrial design) had his midterm presentation last Thursday, which was the opportunity for his teachers to give him feedback on our device and the progress we have made since the last milestone. Unfortunately, the feedback wa […]
