Team's first Meeting

First Meeting :
Location: School Of Computer Science Common Room
Date: 01/02/07
Members Absent: None
Goal: Come up with a number of ideas during this brainstorming session. Document all the keywords that members have mentioned and on a later stage go into more depth for each of those.
Process: Each member shouts an idea or a few words on it's turn while others add more to it. A member of the group records on paper all the words and ideas developed during brainstorming. Keywords mentioned by members are then linked or combined to create an "idea" that could lead to a product that serves the two age groups we are interested in. The two age groups are :
a) <11>b) >65 , old people

At the end of the brainstorming session a mapping diagram was being developed using FreeMind. This has the advantage of mapping our ideas or keywords like we would normally do on a paper but in a better structured way while keeping it simple. Click here for a better look of the diagram.

In brief, the ideas we came up with by the end of the session are the following:
a) Shopping trolley e-assistant
b) Anti Shock Airbag Technology Lined Clothing
c) Mobile - Projector - Hologram
d) Space Navigation for kids
e) Flying carpet! :)
f) Robots that play with kids

Conclusion/Decisions Taken: The decisions taken at the end of our first meeting are summarized in our mapping diagram above.
