April 20th: The Homelessness Team Starts Prototyping

Thane - This cot concept keeps the homeless off of the wet ground. Our research showed that there were problems of sleeping on the hard ground as well as with moisture coming up through the ground. It folds from a flat sheet to create bracing triangles that support sleeping users.

Matt - This product solves the problem of drying small articles of clothihng in 15 minutes or less. Using ventilated packaging and water wiking material, the product works with a heat source to get water molecules quickly away from the article of clothing and into the atmosphere, resulting in quickly dried clothing. The concept prototype experiments with different patterns of ventilation to achieve optimization of evaporation of water in wet clothing materials.

Chris - My first concept aims at keeping socks dry. Based on personal experience, I realized that a natural walking motion lifts water onto the front of the shoe first. Once the front of your shoe and sock has gotten wet, the moisture continues to soak towards the back. This shoe guard would cover the front toe-box area of the shoe, and help to prevent water from soaking to the sock. My second concept utilizes the heat from (free) hot water and the thermal conductivity of steel drinking canisters to dry socks.

Lizz - The objective behind my concepts/prototypes is to find a way to provide the user with additional heat sources to help keep warm. This is explored in various forms, all using hand warmers for the additional heat source. I have attached several elastic bands within different products such as a head warmers and leg warmers that allow the users to attach extra hand warmers to provide additional warmth. The bands can also be used as a way for the user to store their smaller, more personal possessions to protect them from theft. In addition, I have also looked at external methods of pervading warmth that can be used by multiple people at a time instead of just one. This can be seen with the use of a foil-fireplace. This product consists of two-foil/tin cooking dishes, hand sanitizer, a rubber band, and a lighter. THe cooking dishes act as a fireplace and the hand sanitizer is the heat-providing component. One simply must put hand sanitizer in the dish, light it with matches of a lighter, put the perforated top on a wrap the rubber band around (for the purpose of keeping the fire safe and so that one does not burn themselves when touching the dishes) to achieve an external element of warmth. These products cost less than $3.00 to make, making them affordable for a wide range of users.

Perry - My prototype centers around using easily available and zero-cost materials, and the concept of drying wet clothes in sunny conditions after a night of rain. By acquiring used bicycle tubes from local shops for free, cutting them up, gluing them in a bag form, and perforating one side so that the black tubes absorb heat and drain water, the user is able to dry shirts and other items.

Dan - During our interviews, observations and research, I noticed how personal belongings were protected from the elements by covering them up or wrapping them in whatever material that could be found—usually it was tarps, shower curtains, blankets or plastic.  I wanted to explore a way of making belongings even more secure and protected from the rain, harsh weather and other people. This prototype is a type of bungie cord that is made entirely from parts of a bike tire.  All you need to make a bike tire bungie is a few spokes, a tire tube, and a pocketknife. The elastic part is made from the bike tube and the hooks are made from the spokes. It's extremely easy to make, takes hardly any time, and is free. The nice thing about this object is its versatility.  So far, I can see it being used to secure coverings over shopping carts and backpacks and to hang wet clothes to dry.  I’m excited to make more and give them out to homeless individuals and see what they think and how they will use them.

Welcome back!

Spring term has sprung, and UODFA is ready to go!

Here are some quick recaps of what each team has accomplished and what their next steps are—check it out!

"Throughout the term we have been gathering both primary and secondary research about the topic of autism. We started very broad; our research allowed us to investigate issues like nutrition, expression, and daily routine, but we have recently focused down the issue of interaction and communication of non-verbal autistic children. We have spent time with children at the Bridgeway House, a local school for autistic children. This term, we hope to continue our ideation and translate our designs into working prototypes to get feedback, and eventually narrow down to the best solution. This will be a very exciting term for us, as we will finally get to see all of our hard work manifested into physical objects that we hope can have a positive impact on the lives of the wonderfully bright and talented kids we have been working with." — Maddy, Team Autism

"Over the past two terms, our team has been researching problems that homeless individuals in the Eugene area encounter. Based on insights from the local homeless community, we found that rain and wetness are the root of many problems, from trench foot to soggy sleeping bags. Follow us we take the next step in our project and begin to conceptualize, prototype, and design solutions to help the homeless stay dry." — Chris, Team Homelessness
