Description:
As one of four "mini-portfolios" created for this course, I was tasked with conceptualizing and designing a "Smart Water Heater" that solved the issue of water damage resulting from leaks going undetected. I not only designed the water heater, but then used this project as a demonstration of the Human Centered Design process within a poster.
