Adamor Device

For my honors thesis, I have been working on a project for Johnson & Johnson as a part of ASU's Innovation Space program. Throughout this process, I have worked with an interdisciplinary team of students from engineering, design, and business backgrounds. The goal of this project was to come up with new and innovative ways to protect skin from insect aggressors. We began the project by conducting market research, and going through several phases of product development, before eventually creating a working prototype of our solution. The process has been broken up into 7 phases over the course of two consecutive semesters and culminates with a product presentation to Johnson and Johnson shareholders. Stage four of this process, which was the final stage of semester one, involved narrowing down the ideas we came up with in our brainstorming sessions. Our team agreed upon our tree strongest ideas to move forward with. At the end of this phase, we produced a professional proposal for each of our three ideas. These proposals were presented during a showcase in December, and we used feedback from this showcase to determine how best to proceed in stage five. In stage 5 we selected a single idea from our three proposals to work on exclusively for the rest of the process. That idea was the Adamor device. We also began to look deeper into the technical and functional issues that needed to be incorporated into our solution. Furthermore, our team choose the aesthetic direction we want to pursue for our product branding. Stage 6 of this process involved finalizing all aspects of our concept including business feasibility, design, and final features that will be included in our working prototype. In stage 7, we produced a final product, and presented our prototype to representatives from Johnson & Johnson for review.
