Concept presentations
Next week is our second set of presentations. Your team will present your final concepts to the rest of the class & staff, and the Miami-Dade partners during lecture on March 23.
This is an opportunity to share information across teams, for the staff to get a sense of where you're at, and provide feedback.
Format
Each team will have 15 minutes to present. You should break your presentation up as:
- 5 min for the concept overview
- 10 min for disucssion with Miami-Dade team. You can ask them questions, and they can also provide feedback.
Here's what you should show:
- Overview of the approach
- Industrial design for the HW node -- what does it look?
- A wireframe of the web front-end
- The current block diagram of the HW, FW, and SW
- Your current specifications, including ones not yet set
- Results of research, modeling, and prototyping that support your specifications
- Discussion of how your impact framework has affected your design choices (where appropriate).
- Team roles
- A curated set of critical questions that you'd like input from the partners.
Presentation guidelines
-
You'll present from a staff computer, so make sure your presentation is easy to find in your Google Drive folder.
-
Keep to time! We'll be strict. That means, practice practice practice in advance!
-
It's not necessary for each team member to present. Maybe do one member/concept, or something like that. Too many people transitions will slow you down.
-
Make the slides informative...and visually appealing.
-
Since the primary audience are our Miami-Dade partners, be careful with jargon!
