Reflection & Scope

Differences in time zones make connecting and communicating even more difficult. An extra dose of empathy and imagination is needed to keep in mind that the significant other is experiencing an entirely different part of the day or night. We brainstormed numerous ideas to combat the difficulties caused by this issue. Our team worked collaboratively on this whole project, each of us taking ownership of the tasks assigned to us. We researched on the current products in the market, brainstormed the possible solutions to the current problem, coded and prototyped the suitable solutions and documented the entire process. It was an enriching experience and we feel that we could have done better with the attributes of the clock if there was supplementary time. In future we would like to incorporate video greetings as well as sound integration to the existing model. We could utilize touch sensors as well as motion sensors for effective functioning of the device
