Innovatie proeftuin idea generation method + some pics of the innovatieplatform days

Today i have been to the dutchinnovation days as productleader of 5
man team in a student competition. The goal was to develop a vision
about working and living in the year 2028.

To come up with some ideas we did a very extensive idea generator
method. This was under the supervision of a master student design
engineering. For us it worked out pretty well. Pics and some information
is added below.






















At first everybody of the group was to think about his or her
favorite beautyproduct and write down a few advantages and thing
you like about the product (in 2 minutes). In this way you can see
clear what kind of attributes are important for the teammmbers.
After this we began to wrote down 30 future thing with regard to
living and working AND what function they fullfill. Like speed,
freedom, flexibility, happiness etc.






















Next are those functions written down on post-it notes and
sticked on a big wall. In our case we had different ones for
working and living in 2028.



















When all the functions are written down and sticked on the wall,
you try to make combinations. For example speed, flexibility, lower
cost have to do with eachother



















After this we started to categorise the funtions in 4 main things.
These 4 main thing are represented in the sencentes at the right.
The combination of all this information is shown below.
And our pitch presentation.






















It was quite stupied, but we came up with a totally other
vision then we originally though about :D

Another picture to think about
