‘Good Design’ to me is...My idea of good design is being fully-functional and intuitive; having a beautiful aesthetic form that follows function; being sustainable and environmentally helpful all throughout ideation, manufacture, sale, use and end-of-life. However, a good designer to me doesn’t just encapsulate all these attributes. A good designer, much like the hypodermic syringe theory, can effectively communicate their feelings, ideas and aspirations of that specific design, to the end-user. Above all else, good design is a grand gesture for the designer to be proud of, and the end-user to have in their life as an extension of themselves.

My research began with finding sufferers of migraines, each from different walks of life and compiling as much information from them as possible. I then utilised desk research from existing studies and literature to back up and explain these findings. Through both primary and desk research, I isolated the most efficient and effectivemethods of treating migraines.

DEVELOPMENT -TESTINGCONCEPT
Mohammed Soheb HossainProduct Design Technology
[email protected]@SohebH93
Most of my end-users were interested in how a ‘sleep therapy mask’ would work, so I produced a mock up that emulates some of the effects, although crudely. The pressure of the tights emulated the pressure mask, the relief sounds produced the sound therapy component, while the concealment of light helped to desensitise the user from light exposure.
After narrowing down cold thermal therapy as one of the most effective methods of treating migraines, I made a sleeve with two cold-conductive metal plates attached to them. I asked my user which orientation of the plates on the finger was more comfortable apply to the eye.
Kohinoor Briars - “I preferred the inside of the finger, just felt more natural. I was wondering about if it would stay cold for long and will it be cold when I need to use it in an emergency, I mean does it have to stay in the fridge?”

The Migraine Management Kit
The Therapy Mask Provides dual therapy (Sonar and Thermal). Indicates to others that the user is suffering a migraine
(subtle exterior glow). Emulates a recovery environment. Desensitises light and sound (blinding-out and
noise-cancellation).
The Cold Sleeve Cool thermal treatment for specified user-points. Cushioned in conjunction with ‘Auto-Acupressure guide’ within
the app (auto-acupressure and thermal therapy).
The Watch and App Provides biofeedback on the user and their migraine. Allows user to manage their own migraine diary. Tracks use of other products from the kit automatically. Automatically records data and graphically presents them.
The Modular Box Collapsible, modular, portable and easy-to-carry kit. Designed to fit at work desk, home, car glove-compartment and
bags. Can be kept together or split to different locations.

[email protected]@SohebH93
After further research, end-user interviews and advice from Dr. Fayyaz Ahmed, I concluded that a kit that relieves the migraine was not ethical for a design brief; as proving the results of treatment is sensitive in the medical field. Instead I decided to eliminate the root of the problem by managing migraines and help prevent them from occurring in the first place. I began designing a management device and used the Internet of Things and Wearable Technology as inspi-ration.
‘….prevention is the best form of treatment.’

DEVELOPMENT VICONCEPT
Mohammed Soheb HossainProduct Design Technology
[email protected]@SohebH93
Once I decided on producing a bio-sensing watch that would monitor the variables that are attributed to migraines, I needed to decide on a form and aesthetic that promotes calm, tranquillity and healing. It was also necessary to research, prototype and combine the required technologies.
I began with sketch modelling the form. I also decided to use a ‘slap-band’ for the brace so that it could be utilised by the user on any extremity of their person.
10.
DEVELOPMENT VIICONCEPT

[email protected]@SohebH93
I deduced that the utilisation of a display would be counter-intuitive to the function of calming the user. User comments and critical thinking concluded that a display with various and complicated statistics would be too complicated and stressful and could in fact induce a migraine.
So as a result I decided to utilise soft and calm light diodes to indicate healthy and harmful levels of each bio-sensing variable. This will indicate to the user when a migraine could come on and what steps could be taken to avoid one.

MigrainesMigraines are a complicated medical condition with symptoms ranging from intense visual auras, to a loss of cognitive clarity. However migraines do not garner the same empathy that other ‘serious’ health conditions receive. There are as much as 610,000 sufferers in the UK (The Migraine Trust, 2009). Currently however there are little means to managing stress, anxiety and the other triggers for migraines.
MIE-TRAKRThe MIE-TRAKR is a migraine management device that brings the effectiveness of Medical Biofeedback to an easy-to-use and unobtrusive piece of fashionable technology.
It works by updating the user on certain bio and environmental levels which can then be processed to make adjustments and help avoid triggers of potential migraines. The Bio-levels measured are Skin Activity, Skin Temperature, Sleep Quality, Body Hydration and Pulse, along with the Light Intensity sensor as the environmental gauge.
TESTINGMIE-TRAKR
12.
Mohammed Soheb HossainProduct Design Technology
[email protected]@SohebH93As the MIE-TRAKR works off of a theoretical concept that I isolated from my
primary and desk research, I had to find a way of proofing that concept. I decided to use one of my end-users and test as many of the proposed variables as possible and see if they did in fact have a direct correlation with stress and thus potentially migraines.
I chose Mr. Callum Nicklin as he is an athletic individual, who was going through a stressful time with his final year of university.
The test-rig was made with and coded on an Arduino and 3 sensors. These were a light intensity module, pulse sensing module and temperature sensor.He rated his stress out of ten and the spikes in each module had a feint link with the rating.

Matthew White“…Honestly, I work on the computer for a long stretch of time and I don’t take a break so I’ll
forget to drink water or something, and then I’ll get a migraine later, but this device could remind
me to so that’s cool...”
“…I wasn’t so sure at first, a device that I carry around and gives me live updates on my health,
sounds a bit like Star Trek to me but I’m liking it now, especially how easy I can strap it on my
wrist or latch it on my bag...”
“… it’s sad because the cooling sleeve was something that was just amazing and what I really needed, but I get that a cooling sleeve won’t help
every other person so, but I think the device is really neat, especially the live updating feature…”
Dr. Tim Cox“… I did think 8 different sensors in a small device would be over-ambitious … now you’ve reduced that number down, the device functionality seems more realistic now. But I have to emphasis the great potential this little device has in store…”
“…I do however wish to push the notion, I see you are going for the live update feature, I think if you could replace that with a continuous update instead…”

?
Omlet was a young brand, who had already established a distinct style and prides themselves for sustainability.
Through dissecting the brief, it was ascertained that the final concept would have to bring together several products.
Fabrication of sketch models began after primary research into the sizes of chickens at different stages in their infant life, studies on the minimum dimensions for a sufficient coop area and package optimising the internal structure.

CADINITIAL CONCEPT
WORKING MODELCONCEPT III
Analysis on the Concept I/ Working Model
In this case holding the orange in place could be a little fiddly. And when it comes to gravity it would be the best if the juice comes down with the gravity flow. Plus after the working prototype we realized that the screw itself can move up and down and the gear train can be fixed in place. It just screws in that slider (which is also fixed ) so in order to move in which is the linear motion it has to rotate to screw in the thing, hence providing both linear and rotatory motion.

Ideation sketching for mechanisms and testing with working sketch models
RACK & PINIONCONCEPT I
Concepts usually based on how only one hand could be used to squeeze where the force later could be considered to be coming from the motor.
For some of the concepts, looking if the force could be applied from a horizontal angle instead of coming from top or bottom vertically. But with some experi-menting realizing that the juice should fall in a natural manner as in with gravity, so vertical motion could be better.
The first concept on the top left is like where the orange is stationary and the two sides come and squishes the orange, so the juice just falls by gravity. Again the rack and pinion mechanism could be used for this one. So as the motor spins the pinion would move on the rack going forward and as it spins in the other direc-tion, goes backwards.
The concept above consist of two racks and a pinion going forward to push into the orange and squeeze, where the push thing would be connected to back and forth gears to provide the rotatory motion but with the back and forth the rotation would be in two directions as they half the teeth on each of the two parallel gears. With this concept the orange needs to be fixed (which is iffy) on the other end and the positive comes in and squeeze.

SPUR GEARS FOSFINAL CALCULATIONS:So after calculating a gear train value and the
specifying the spur gear variables such as the number of teeth, diameter and working torque and tooth stress on each gear, we were able to then calculate the factor of safety.
It was high; however, through FEA we can pinpoint the weak point with a lower yielding material and alter that through CAD as the stress value we calculated was the tooth stress value and not the Von Mises stress. So the stress on the base of the gears was not consid-ered. Hopefully through iterating, we can bring the Factor of Safety within the 3 to 4 threshold of success.

Above is our original configuration, but we decided against the double-action as it would require higher torque and the actual implementation of it would constrain the potential for design of the outer casing later. So to the right is our final configuration.

After several iterations of gear trains, with different calculations and variables, I was able to define the gear specifications and the motor within a theoretically working configuration.
The theoretical configuration then required adjustments after being bought into SolidWorks.

FOS: 240 6.0968 = 40.98575663
Conclusions: After the mechanical simulation and analysis of the main Punch component, I found that the FOS was 10 times more than the required 3 to 4 range. This is a lower than the other components, but still in its own right, considerable high in comparison to the required range. Adding aesthetic surface features and making it more resolved in a semantic sense would reduce this FOS, however, a fancy surface aesthetic is not in keeping with the ‘Form-Fol-lows -Function’ ideology that Braun tries to embody in their designs. Hollowing out the com-ponent would be a more appropriate course of action for reducing the FOS. Unlike the other components, less materials being used in the manufacture of this component will not require more processes, and less wasted material, instead, injection moulding this component, may produce high start-up costs, but in the long run -which this product is in-tended for, considering how little Braun have changed their juicer design- will eventually break even the costing’s saved from using less raw material per unit.

CAD CONCEPTINITIAL PHILIPS
Tutor: Ramin AmaliModule: Mechanical
Design SimulationModule Code: UFME-
This was my initial CAD Concepts for the exterior body and housing of the mechanical juicer components. The focus on this concepts was form, rather than the applicablility and feasibility as a juicer housing. The aesthetic form of the concept is very indicitive of the Philips design ethos, of subtle, natural and organic curviture and looked very similar to the Philips Viva Collection Airfryer (HD9220/20) and the Philips Senseo Coffee Pod system (HD7814/60). However, such features as the juice guard for the power screw and the rest of the internals was very crude. Furthermore, the ground clearance of the poureer was so small, that it could only pour into a 5cm cup -which after a brief bit of research- I found was more or less non-existant. Also, the access of the orange reamer would have required a removal of the entire top body and then the front door, which for an elderly person (the target end-user) was completely innapropriate. Other such constituants of the Assembly were not easily manufacturable, and the internal components were not fastened to the main body, with little considerations for this made, which is contrary to the main purpose of the excercise. I made recvisions to all of this in my final CAD and feel that the appropriate considerations have been utilised and answered. My New design is also concentrated on the ‘form-follows-function’ design ethos of Braun, rather than the aethetic form of Philips.
48.
After trying to emulate the Philips style comprised in their kitchen utilities range, I determined that too many compromises were required to include the automated system with the organic form. So, instead I decided to emulate Braun’s symmetrical and simple forms.
I then put each component through stress and displacement analysis’ to ensure they would not fail under the calculated nominal stresses.
After defining the faulting areas, I redesigned them to conform.
