Children who
experience autism, can be hypersensitive to certain stimuli such as light,
sound and taste. If a combination of these happens at the same time, this can
lead to an overstimulation or sensory overload and cause a meltdown. I aim to
design and construct a product that creates a ‘safe space’ for children with
autism, as well as providing a place to learn in a classroom and at home. My
product Haven would allow for children between K-6 to feel safe at school. I am
looking for feedback from specialist, as well as interest in the overall idea. Thanks!
My project proposes to design an
automated health care robot for individuals who may be physically impaired,
elderly, or injured that will remove the need for constant monitoring by
healthcare/ aged care workers and allow users independence in taking care of
themselves.Please view for more information about the Need and Solution:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_xKnmcOHiMD_kJGvF64yRSSuqJEE0JfFtfQcY_y-jg4/edit?usp=sharing1. What are your thoughts on this?2. Is there a need for a product like this?3. Is there another target market that I should consider?4. Anything that could be changed or added?More information and better sketches are to be uploaded soon.
Every year NSW generates 8000 tonnes of plastic take away waste. Every year we waste around 7.6 million tonnes of food across the supply and consumption chain in Australia. Every year no states or territories across Australia has taken action. I am designing biodegradable takeaway packaging made from fruit and vegetable skins to help solve the amount of fruit waste and packaging waste in landfills. I seek assistance from industry professionals to help source a pressure heat mould and different moulding techniques?
I have identified that there is an enormous need for a product that provides information and supplies for animal rescue. Currently, the number of animals that require rescue outweighs the capacity of organisations like Wires and they do not currently have a designated 'supply box' for animal rescue, prompting unsafe practices when rescuing animals which puts humans and animals at risk. My product (RAMA) would include a website, information booklet, roadside assistance station and portable supply kit, which would give volunteers and members of the public the information and resources necessary to safely transport injured animals to wildlife care services.
