We Made a Mess!!!

On this past Tuesday (11/8/11) my Smart Surfaces team made a huge mess. It was fantastic! We finally got our hands dirty and whipped out some rapid prototypes. The major concern that we were all having is that we had all these great and crazy ideas but no feasibility check and no physical mock up. Carl asked "thats cool, but what does it look like?" at the end of our presentation and we didn't have an answer for him. We were determined to change that. Here are some pictures from our first prototype development day of the week:

    

It was an ultra productive session. We split the time into 3 45 min sessions where everyone came up with a unique solution to solve the specific component and came back together for a vote of the best idea. The results were great: the catchment form, the base, and the pulley system were all hashed out in a relatively short time. Keep up the good work for the rest of the week!
