automoblox improvement
intro
In this project, my partner and I had to create two enhancements for a T9 automoblox car, one mechanical and one for the design. We used reverse engineering which is taking something apart to see how it works. We took the car apart and thought about what kids these days would like and buy so we brainstormed and then used a decision matrix to figure out what we would do.

A. This project was very fun, exciting and time consuming (Which I didn't mind because I have no life. LOL). My partner and I worked well together and both worked very efficiently on the project. It was easy because we are both easygoing and awesome. The project turned out really good and maybe a little better than we imagined. Although certain parts of the vehicle were hard to customize, we found a way to work it out and finish the project.
1. When changing or enhancing a design, one must think about the appearance and the audience. What I mean by this is to make sure that the new design is appropriate for your audience. For example if the car is made for ages 5-12, the car might not need a picture of a girl in a bikini.
2. It is important to document brainstorming ideas because down the road you might need to go back and look at them for more ideas. You might decide that you want to do something easier or something harder.
3. Sketching ideas are important because it is a quick way of seeing what the outcome of your changes will be. It would be a waste of time to make all of your improvements, and then decide that it doesn't look good.
