01.WU'AN THE SECOND PAIR OF ARMS OF YOU

Video link:https://youtu.be/GcApjN-wM_E

01

PROBLEMS

So, what I want to design is

Are people's hands enough?

1. a robot with a pair of hands.

WITHOUT

OBTAIN

2. able to catch and hold thing.

Mr. Fire is a dentist.

If he has the second pair of hands, he can treat patients and take the tweezers at the same time.

WITHOUT

3. Wearable and able to move by itself.

IDEATIONS

OBTAIN

Mr. Blame is a worker.

If he has the second pair of hands, he can remove heavier bricks. So that will save much time and earn more money.

WITHOUT

OBTAIN

Mrs. Fire is a mother.

If she has the second pair of hands, she will have the time to have lunch.

Yoyo has two parts, which are able to separate from each other. It is able to move because of its round shape. It can be connected by the bearing, so I want to use it to create a wheel system.

The bones of the hands are long and thin, but powerful and tough. So I want to use the structure of the bones to create powerful e-hands.

The shape of the peanut is streamlined to suit human's body-lines.

02

IMAGES HANDS

1. Fingers are removable, so people can put it on their shoulders.

2. If hands are connected with the fingers, there will be electric power running through the fingers so users can command 2. There are e-bones at the back of the fingers, which enables things to be caught and held tightly 3. 'Arms' are two elastic wide strings, so users can easily put it into the arm collecting system.

BODY OF THE ROBOT 1. It is light, so people can wear WU'AN easily.

2. AI tech, so people can socialize and command it.

3. 'Arm' collecting system is at the back of the robot body. So people can let the arms out freely.

4.The whole system is shaped like a yoyo, with two wheels connected by a wide, foldable elastic band. When used, the user can separate the two wheels and turn on the switch and mount it on WU 'an's body so the whole robot can move under command.

In 2038, WU'AN will have helped people from all walks of life, such as doctors, dentists, workers, students and teachers.

In the past 5 years, WU'AN has saved over 12,000,000 people and help over 3,000,000 carrying heavy bags.

WU'AN brings happiness to the world...

INFLUENCE

By observing people in different life scenes, I find that if they have second hands, their life will become very convenient.In sketch, my hand-drawing ability was further improved and I was skilled in using mark pen and needle pen.In the process of making models, I learned about various materials with different characteristics and treatment methods. Through user testing, I can get very real character feedback, which can reduce the occurrence of errors in the future model.Through this project, I realized various factors such as the environment that affect this product.

04

02.RELIEVE STRESS The product is a pressure-relief device that allows users to strike soft semi-cylinders to turn them so that the amulets inside the device are exposed, while quickly grabbing the amulets. The user releases stress while striking and grabbing.

MY DAYTIME

In this section, I asked my classmate Joey and his mom some questions about academic stress. Further analysis illustrates how the students in different regions relieve stress.

Conversations JOEY ,SAID : I always put on all night .I have pressure but I don't know how to relieve it .I like playing basketball just like the other peers but now I don't have much time to do so.I even wanna give up...

STRESS I'm a student who studies in the international department of a high school in NanJing. Some people believe that we always have a lot of time to relax or there’s less study burden compared to the students who need to take China’s College Entrance Exam. I really want to speak for students reading international courses and to find a way to help us relieve stress.

JOEY'S MOM: My son always stays up late. I always encourage him, because that is essential to let him know the importance of the tests. I do expect much from him. So sometimes I just argue with him when he wants to play basketball instead of studying hard.

Children and teenagers in the UK, Japan and America choose sports and exercises to relieve academic stress.

IDEATION 01.

This is the training equipment of Wing Chun. People feel peaceful after playing this. So it is actually an excellent choice for stress relief.

Since I am a big fan of Jacky Chen adventures, I get idea 2 from it.

After the amulets come out, the power comes out too. So ShenDu becomes a sculpture. video link: https://youtu.be/GxK2wJCHL9A

QIN lost HEXI, so the king is unhappy.

1. Puntch the removable column.

STRUCTURE

REN'AMULETS ROUND SHAPE TOTALLY 2 OF THEM

TIAN'AMULETS

Made by magnets

USING TRADITIONAL INK WASH FEATURES AND TEXTURE OF IT TO CREATE.

MADE BY MAGNET

HARD AND ROUGH, EASY TO CATCH MADE BY MAGNET

THE MAINBODY OF THE SYSTEM USING SOFT MATERIAL, PEOPLE CAN PUNTCH IT TO RELIEVE STRESS. .

This shows the inner structure of the system. There is a magnet on the end of the column which can attract the amulets. The main body of it is a piston in which the inner column can move horizontally.

DI'AMULETS USE RED COLOR AND BLACK INK TO CREATE WITH TEXTURE OF WASH INK. HARD AND ROUGH,EASY TO CATCH. MADE BY MAGNET

When a player catches and throws out the amulets, the magnet of column will appear and attract the mainbody.

So the player will feel harder to catch the other amulets.

Model by Rhino

There is a soft half cylinder which is connected by a bearing with the mainbody.

The half -cylinder can move around 360. .degree.

INFLUENCE

When doing user research, I have a deeper understanding of the real thoughts and needs of users. I really enjoy working with them to create and brainstorm ideas together, and then continuously optimize through the validation of the straw model. Through Rhino and keyshot learning, I have mastered the basic skills of using Rhino, which enables me to see the form, details and volume of products in a more three-dimensional way. The inspiration of this project is kung fu, which I love. Some of its behaviors can help people release stress. It is an interesting experience to connect things that they do not want to be related. In the future study, I will keep practicing, thinking and creating new products to make people's lives better and better.

03.PROTECTORS This is a series of protectors which includes an elbow guard, a knee protector and a helmet.

I used the main features of traditional Chinese armors in different dynasties to design these protectors.

09

MAIN PURPOSE

INSPIRATION

When I was a little kid, I was used to study skating. Unfortunately, I always got serious hurt on my legs, elbows and even head. As a consequence, I became afraid of skating later on.

Since I am also a fan of traditional Chinese armors which was used to protect soldiers in each dynasty, I want to make reference to ancient armors and make a series of protectors to safeguard people better.

NEGATIVE IMPACKS Without knee pads, people may feel:

Since I am also a fanitist of chinese traditional armors in each dynesty,I want to coin a series of protectors to safegard people better according to the antient armours.

Extremely painful when hurt.

Wound is not easy to heal.

Even when the wound heals, people may feel unwell on rainy days. days.
