Reflection

As mentioned in the process section above, we had three iterations of prototyping before settling on the Pandaro Box idea. During that prototyping process, we encountered many challenges. For instances, we could not figure out a spring mechanism that works for a Jack-in-the-box idea. Working with lights that demand high power and relays/transistors was also a challenge. As a team, we debated to reach a consensus on the fabrication material. Cloud connection had malfunctions constantly. There are many other challenges alike but we overcame all of them as a team. During the one week of this project, team communication and team cooperation worked out really well. Every member had a specific role but was not confined to that role, and we learned from each other.
