In the last weeks the whole team brainstormed in order to find a name for our product that could represent it and at the same time represent the team’s mindset. Several interesting ideas came out, but one got clearly favored by all of us:

Originating from the italian noun livello, it clearly illustrates the functionality of our device. It also sati […]

After a well earned week of relax (at least on paper) and a lot of eating (easter bunnies and co.), our team is back to work. Each one of us is tweaking the last details with respect to the second milestone at the end of the week. For the presentation, Viktor and Tobia are thinking of an elevator pitch to get the audience to the point in the fastest way possible and be able to explain the importa […]

We just named our baby ! We went for something pretty self-explanatory but also playful: Todoo ! We chose blue because it symbolizes autism and red to represent the time-timer. Once it was chosen, our interaction designer Hélène could get to work to find us a cool logo and identity (which you can see above). She also worked a lot on the app, along with our coding-machine Khalil […] 8 years, 3 months ago

Last week we presented our 2nd milestone with the new brand identity. Proud of the improvement we have done to our lovely ShuQi, we completely changed the structure of the presentation. We met in the morning before the milestone at noon and made use of the great equipment in HEG, to train our pitch. Where the first milestone was crammed with dry information and technical explanations, the second m […]

Hi everyone!

Last Friday Milestone 2 took place and we came up with a name and two big changes.

We wanted a brand related to the sun. We also wanted it to be easy to pronounce by people of different populations, ages, and regions. Finally, it had to be short and catchy. We went for Ilanga, the Zulu word for “sun”. Sounds nice, doesn’t it?

The big changes that we […]

Hello everybody,

Last week we all benefited from our Easter holidays!!! Therefore, we could allocate even more time to our project… (or at least we tried ;-)).

All of us started off by continuing to implement all the feedbacks we gained during our Milestone 1 presentation. The mechanical engineers worked on a 3D model of the redistribution system while Florian (one of o […]

Hey everyone

We are back after a long time of silence

The second milestone is approaching and we spent the week preparing it.

After the holidays we came up with some good ideas of improvement about our device, including a big shape change…

But for now on we keep it secret until the milestone of tomorrow, so stay tuned 😉

The Easter celebrations are over and it’s time to get back to work. Two weeks ago (here), we faced several questions as to the turn of the continuation of our project. Following the feedback and discussions we had with the team, we agreed on the direction we wanted to take. Thus, we made […]

Hi everyone,

This last week before the Easter break, we are very motivated because our project begins to take shape. Our software engineer finished coding the core functionalities of the backend, now it is possible to completely manage our database through our API. Now he is starting to set up the frontend environment. […]

On our journey, we have found a new team member: ShuQi. She has already been an observer last week, and joined us this Friday. The ingredients were a plate of quinoa, a messy room and the pugnaciousness to dominate frustration. Inspired by the bird Clark nutcracker, ShuQi is the source of identity and lifestyle. She is the soul of our project and the brain for our future customers. ShuQi, the love […]

The past two weeks were essentially dedicated to the electronic part of the device. The first version of the PCB has been designed and its production was launched. We hope we can get it by the end of the holidays. The other important part is about the microcontroller. It took us quite much time to familiarize with it, especially because the one we chose is not widespread as Arduino microcontroll […]

Hey everyone!

After the success of the Milestone 1, we can continue the project. Now we are organizing the second milestone. We will present the 3D model with the electronic part and more. The design will stay the same as now. But before that we have a lot of work to do.

Have nice holidays!

Hi everyone,

This week we continued coding the backend part of our device, we implemented different core functionalities that will allow our Android application to interact with the database and manage data. Now there’s the possibility to add new user (I.E parents) to the database and for each of them add new child and event with the related pollution and […]

This week, our blog post will take you through what UX designer Hélène and Software Engineer Khalil have decided to do for the project’s app.

The app is an essential part of the project. Whereas the connected product that we are preparing is to be used by the person with ASD, the mobile app is the interface for the caretakers. Having discussed with parents before, we decided that there will […]

Hi dear CHIC community,

We hope you are all fine?

This Tuesday we had our first milestone presentation… Although, we do now our device by hard, it is still more nerve-racking if you have to present it in front of a bunch of people. However, we did fine… I guess 🙂 !

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1373" src="https://community.chi.camp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/04/imag […]

This week we presented our work we have done so far. There were many things to say and that is why the presentation got longer and longer. Sorry for that.

Our conclusion from the milestone and the feedback provided by the supervisors and coordinators was encouraging. The content of our project, the work done so far and the way we are heading is fine. However we need to improve the overall fit a […]
