Selection
Once we realized that trying to play the role of “God” on a Martian mission was going to be near impossible, we decided that sending an additional “Product” with the crew would help alleviate some of the tension that is created during prolonged periods of confinement and isolation. We broke the mission down into 4 sections of time in which the “Product” might be useful and four personas that would hypothetically be using the product.
We then came up with as many capabilities and functions we could. We also have a lot of potential names for the robot in the making but we’ll leave some surprises to the end...
While our team was all in agreement during the selection stage, I think honing in on how our product is going to be specific to a Martian mission might be up for debate over the next few days.
