- To all agree on final product idea.
- To define a set of 'broad' requirements for chosen product.
- To create a questionnaire based on our final product choice which helps define more specific requirements.
- A review of the personnas.
Meeting:
Following on from a previous meeting a few weeks ago about the different product ideas. It is required that we chose a final product quickly because of the time restrictions. It is also necessary to start prototyping our idea this week so will be added as a goal for next week.
Having been actively posting on the blog it was decided that we would rule out the Remote Security System and the Interactive Soap (see Product Decision). There was a little bit of discussion on the rest of the ideas with myself in favour of the Interactive Walking Guide and the majority of the group in favour of the Barcode Scanner Food Intake Device but, instead of making the Food Nutrition Device a barcode reader we decided to take a step back and allow for it to be any hardware so that we could come up with the better solution.
Now requirements needed to be defined for this product idea but, these have to be broad as we decided that a goal for next week was for each member to come up with a refined set of requirements in the form of a prototype. This would allow us to merge ideas to create the best possible solutions to the problems that are encountered based on the 'broad' requirements. We wrote the requirement on the whiteboard so that a picture could be taken (see Requirements for Designated Product)
Another one of our aims was to create a questionnaire but after a lengthy discussion it was unanimously decided that we wouldn't create a questionnaire just yet as we have a list of broad requirements which will be expanded by us. After the expansion with addition of different features we felt would the best time to ask questions and change aspects of our design based on the general user opinion.
Our final point was about the personas. We have decided to each edit the persona based on the post - Thinking About Personas by dave. We have all decided to go away and add more specific information to our personas.
For next weeks meeting:
- Create prototypes of Food Nutrition Device.
