ADMT reflections

1) What have you learnt?
I learnt more about the elderly's difficulties in real life and the challenges they face. I also learnt about design considerations and ergonomics.

2) What are the difficulties encountered?
I encountered difficulties when modeling and designing the product as i needed different materials for my product and it is difficult to put them together. For example the hot glue melted some of my materials. There might be some weaknesses and flaws in the design.

3) How did you overcome the difficulties?
I had to borrow other joints eg. UHU glue to join them together instead of hot glue, improving the design, or using different materials.
