Week 3: Feedback on Back brief presentation and group progress

This week we had a presentation on our Group back brief. We received feedback and there were few things that we need to fix:

- Clarify the idea approach
- Need a specific roles and timeline to each members
- Specific plan on the timeline

At this state we have the final idea of creating the electronic storage in the small bath room. The basic purpose is the design a storage with fit in the restricted area and for the safety of an elderly who would not need to reach for stuff at the high shelf, the device will be designed to automatic bring down the box at high position down to the safe reachable area. This idea can be both assign for elderly and children. The system will be controlled with facial recognition to recognise the user, and gesture control to manaully control the position of the box.

After talking to the tutor there were few more point that we need to think about:
- The mechanism
- The material used for the device
- Safety standard
- Maximum weight on the device

For mechanism we will need further research to work out how the box and shelf would work to bring the box up and down and the person who would responsible on this would be me and designer to look for possible way to relate the appropriate design to work with Arduino.
