Third visit to Luc and his assistent dog

Luc was very enthusiastic about the principle of prototype 20. Yet he thought the gear was to big to fit beneath his wheelchair.

When we showed him the cookies we bought, he said that those were maybe a little bit big. He wants a compartiment for very small cookies. He wants the smallest cookies that exist on the market.

example of those cookies:




As you can see, this cookies exist in different form such as bones and hearts. This is what Luc means if he says different sizes.



Dimensions:
tube: 2.5 cm diameter

Shopping for cookies

This cookies are small and they have little fat. 
The cookies do not all have the same shape which is ideal to test our product.

Second visit to Luc and his assistent dog

For this visit we forgot to bring the prototypes from school. Because we had some questions we decided to pay Luc a visit nevertheless.

Questions:

  • how many force can he put on the handle?
  • what does he like about the current prototypes?
  • how many space for cookie machine?
  • what sort of cookies?

Luc told us that he wasn't limited by force in his right hand. He can pull as hard as we do so we can first test it on ourselfs. Also, the current system is based on a bike brake.


Because we uploaded some movies and pictures of our prototypes, Luc got to see the newest versions. He liked everything and had no objections or concers about them.


The cookie machine has to fit in the green rectangle. So the machine can't be very big.



The cookies just need to be diet ones. We can choose wich cookies for the machine but he preferes we make a machine that works with different sizes of cookies.
