The document appears to be a portfolio of product design work by Emma Doran. It includes summaries of several projects involving redesigning everyday products like a hair dryer and F1 wheel gun to improve user experience, as well as early-stage concepts for a wrist-mounted personal medication storage device and children's comforter. The portfolio showcases Emma Doran's experience in identifying user needs, developing concepts, and resolving designs for manufacture.

Brief: Identify and solve a user centered problem. Latent and explicit needs were found by observing, and talking to users. These
identified included the user’s hair getting caught in the fan, cable storage and the controls being changed accidentally

The final design has an organic, feminine
form and good weight distribution due to
the central handle. One simple switch
would control both the temperature and
speed setting.

5. F1 - Wheel Gun Redesign - Group Work
Brief: Redesign the F1 wheel gun to reduce
the time taken to make a wheel change. Initial
concepts looked at improving the handling of the
wheel gun and therefore the speed and efficiency
of the wheel change.

6. F1 - Wheel Gun Redesign - Group Work
The best results could be achieved by supporting the weight of the wheel gun with both
hands. The user’s left hand would be used to guide the wheel gun onto the wheel nut, and
their right would push it on ensuring a secure fit. The final design was styled to be inkeeping
with the Virgin branding and to embody a sense of speed and power.

A wrist band was selected as it is considered fashionable by the intended market group.
Three concepts were then developed which led to a final choice of a “double banded”
design. This was then further resolved to obtain a viable solution in terms of use and
manufacture.

The design features a compression moulded silicone wrist band
with an injection moulded, polypropylene container. It is easy to
assemble and has a simple opening mechanism. A sticker with the
wear’s contact details on was incorporated.
