Abstract: Within this insights report, I gather information (this includes primary and secondary research) pertinent to Lupus and Lupus patients, and I segment it into topics of either user, business, technology, or social (sustainable) related information. Within these topics, I analyze qualitative data and create charts to graphically depict my findings regarding Lupus symptoms and products pertinent to symptom relief. Through these graphs, I then find product opportunity gaps (POGs). For example, how to alleviate pain, provide energy, and reduce stress. After finding as many product opportunity gaps as possible, I then pick my top areas of interest. In the future, I will have brainstorming sessions dedicated to these POGs, and from these sessions, I can begin designing possible products to help monitor the systems, and alleviate the symptoms, of Lupus patients.

The purpose of this research project is to outline the design process and to uncover some of the considerations that designers must keep in mind in an effort to design more empathetically. These will include a focus on appropriate aesthetics, user experience design, and designing for innovation. These findings are then applied to a three-part design project to illustrate the importance of these guidelines.

This product design thesis paper aims to explore innovative strategies for making the process of learning oral and hand hygiene habits more engaging and interactive for children. The study aims to identify effective teaching methods, incentives, and technologies that can be incorporated into product design to promote healthy oral and hand hygiene behaviors in children in a fun and playful way. The research will involve conducting a comprehensive literature review of existing literature on hygiene habits in children, effective teaching methods, and relevant psychological theories on child learning and motivation. The study will also examine how visual elements such as packaging and product design influence the sales of children's toys and what regulations and standards are in place for children's toys, and how corporations comply with them. The data collected from the literature review will be analyzed to identify the most effective strategies for incorporating oral and hand hygiene education into product design. This research aims to contribute to the field of product design by developing a product system that makes teaching healthy oral and hand hygiene behaviors to children more enjoyable and playful. The findings of this study will provide valuable insights into the current hygiene habits and attitudes of children and serve as a foundation for future research in the field of product design and hygiene education.

Ciao is a product and digital application that allows people with celiac disease to gain control over their health as well as lead a more freeing life. The product is a compact cooking set that keeps utensils safe from the common cross-contamination that can be life-threatening to a person with celiac disease. The application allows people to find new restaurants that will be safe for them to eat at, scan the barcode of common food products for 8 of the most common allergens, and provide the most up to date research about celiac disease. Within the app, they can also find a sense of community by connecting with other members.
