Thanks for all the replies!
As some of you may know I recently graduated from college and got a degree in Industrial Design. I was so busy during this process that I neglected to show you the final products. I sincerely...
This has developed into an emergency surgical pack for an environment such as Haiti. In collapsed buildings sometimes the only way to get a person out is to amputate....according to the client (the...
So you're talking about something like this?
Hello. As promised, I attached a few sketches. Let me know if they don't make sense. Its a surgical pack that can be customized for the type of surgery and can be sterilized on the outside. The...
Well, it seems my original thread has been hijacked. However, I admit the original thread title sucked.
I believe in science that follows the scientific method: meaning that theories are only...
Hi. I don't know if this is a dead horse topic but since certain beliefs in my field can control designing and employment in general I wanted to ask who believes in Global Warming and why.
I'm...
I only wish I was making money.....nope, just a student.
I didn't have internet access except for 2 hours Tuesday- due to the 27" of snow we got here in Pittsburgh- so I hadn't checked out the...
Hello all.
I'm not actually a doctor, but am a graduating Industrial Design student doing research on portable surgical packs.
I just had a few questions. More may follow. Thanks for any help...
I actually had to start a new thread to cover it, since its a different design now. Look for it in the "Portable surgical pack" thread.
Thanks as always for responding
The professor is the client, or makes up an imaginary but believable client that we must please. However the "client" changed my project. It will be discussed in a different thread since this one...
It wasn't that I didn't want to research the topic first. It was that this was the beginning of my research, and I was going to multiple places to find the info, this forum being one of them. ...
For those of you that have been nice enough to help with certian collegiate projects, here is the beginnings of my website. The cardboard tent design is not on here yet, but when it is you will...
Professor gives the general guidelines, the student has to come up with a product idea and get their approval.
These are kits to do help with disaster relief- such as in haiti or Indonesia. More than one person would go to a location-each specializing in one part of the process.
I mean oxygen tank for the...
Good question. I know very little about these things, but here's a guess from internet research:
Water purification:
1. tablets to purify 30-50 gallons of water
2. Water bottle or empty...
Yep. Its another school project....possibly depending on its practicality. To clarify...if you had a back pack just for water purification, another one just for medical supplies, another for search...
If you divided up survival/ disaster rescue packs into subcategories, what would you include in the following packs?
1. A water purification pack
2. A first aid/medical pack
3. A food survival...
Yep, I think they were turkeys. There can still be turkeys around after turkey season.
Ever been out somewhere and seen 6 wild turkeys at once? Ever got within 30 feet of them? If you haven't, then come to Pittsburgh. Its not uncommon to see 4 deer together on Mt. Washington during...
These pics are of different ways of folding the same idea. It could have a door on one side. All 3 ideas are derived from the balloon base, which is the beginning step to making a paper balloon. ...
Two more designs. The next one will follow. This one is basically two single tents put together. It could hold 4 people.
Thanks for the link.
What's "burning man"? I've been to a website of that name but it didn't have to do with cardboard tents.
The creases could be made with a cardboard press. Every surface channels water to the ground. Will it work? Thats what I intend to find out with a full-size prototype. If I sleep outside in it on...
