2. Brainstorming

To conduct our brainstorming session effectively, we inputted our list into an online randomizer that would randomly select an action, process, and context. The randomly selected options were then combined to develop a relevant, effective solution. As we are three members, we alternated turns as each of us had the opportunity to work individually and work with the other two members. After many iterations, we had a sufficient number of ideas that we could assess to narrow down our scope of focus. To evaluate the ideas, we numbered each of the idea and ranked each of them according to the value of the individual device vs the value of its interaction with other devices.
