5. Identify the Critical Path for the Project
It is critical that the foundations of our operating system and
core software is completed as soon as possible. Only then can
other subprojects be worked on. Once the physical framework of
our product is developed can we begin to work on all other
projects besides the operating system.
6. Assign Clear Roles and Responsibilities & track progress
We will begin by assigning all available labor to design our
operating systems and core software. Once the critical
components are complete our design team can work with a small
subgroup of engineers to create the display technology and
physical frame of the glasses. Once that is complete, a small
portion of our engineers will finish developing the core
software and the rest of the engineers will be split into various
subprojects.Step 4: Check Work
Our work aligns with our project plans and needs.
Step 5: Learn and Generalize
To successfully develop our product we must follow a strict
development order and prioritize appropriately due to the fact
that many of the sub projects rely on others to be completed or
near completed to begin developing. Without following a strict
development schedule, it will not be possible to implement our
existing technology and develop a prototype within a year.

4Step 4: Check Work
Overall, the HOQ and Fast Diagrams seem to be correct based
on the team’s knowledge. Our information on the products could
be improved with further research or guidance. Several other
categories could be added to customer needs and technical
metrics, but the team used the essential aspects to assess the
product. Step 5: Learn and Generalize
HOQ is a method used in product development that allows
companies to pick the parameters by which they can make a
comparison to other competing products. Using this technique
we were able to establish the important features for our product.
We established customer needs as ergonomics, weight, boot
time, quality of camera, latency, and processing power. Using
customer needs, we were able to specify the technical needs that
we need to accomplish as: ergonomics, weight, boot time,
quality of camera, latency, processing power, UI, and
integration with other devices and peripheral sensors. To choose
our technical features, we noted the importance of each feature
from a development perspective with consideration to how well
each feature coincides with customer needs. This allowed us to
see how much we had to focus on each individual facet of our
product. HOQ is an extremely useful method of aligning
company product development goals with customer needs.

· SP3: Apply optimization framework
(See lookup table below) The optimal choice is row #9 which
consists of solely investing in project #2. Project #2 is the
venture into the entertainment industry and it yields the highest
EMV while staying under our budget constraint of $25M.
Step 4: Check Work
I have checked the work and I believe that it is correct. I looked
at the processes I did on my midterm and double checked my
answers.Step 5: Learn and GeneralizeI was able to use the APP
skills from the midterm and apply it to our actual project. We
learned that project #2 yields the highest EMV so that will be
the industry we will be focusing on.

Concept 1
Concept: Piezoelectric, Gyroscope, Haptic, Changes in Vitals,
Bluetooth Low Energy
Explanation: Device will collect energy from the vibrations
resulting from the general movement of the person in their day
to day. Using a gyroscope, we will be able to detect positioning
and overall orientation of the person. Interacting with the
device can be achieved as a response to a change in vitals of the
user. By detecting the heartbeat in the superficial temporal
artery, the device can provide a haptic stimulation to warn user
of unusual changes. And this device can interact with a
companion mobile app via low energy bluetooth to transmit
data. Intended mainly as general use for health monitoring.
Concept 2
Concept: Solar, Ultrasonic Sensor, Haptic, Touch Pad,
Bluetooth
Explanation: Device would collect energy from miniaturized
integrated solar panels and power the device. It would detect
distance from nearby objects using an ultrasonic sensor. All
feedback from the device will be given through a systematic set
of vibrations (haptic feedback), while all input to the user’s
device will be given from the integrated touch pad. The device
will also communicate with a companion mobile app via
bluetooth.
Concept 3
Concept: Thermal, Gyroscope, Haptic, Eye Movement,
Bluetooth Low Energy
Explanation: Concept 3 will use thermal energy to provide
power and a gyroscope to sense the surrounding environment.
the device can provide a haptic stimulation to inform the user of
changes. Eye movement will indicate what the user is looking at
and facial expression to change what information the receives.
Low energy Bluetooth will be used to communicate with others.
Concept 4
Concept: Battery, Camera, Audio, Projected AR HUD, Sensing
Hand Motion, Bluetooth
Explanation: This concept will be battery powered, and sense
the surrounding environment with a camera making it relatively
reliable. The projected AR HUD will allow the user to have
feedback on the environment within the device, and based on
hand motion the device can determine what the user wishes to
do. Bluetooth will allow the individual to connect with other
devices.
Concept 5
Concept: Gasoline, Lidar, Projected AR HUD, Speech
Recognition, Cellular Network
Explanation: The power will be provided with gasoline,
therefore this concept is not sustainable. The projected AR HUD
would allow for solid feedback to the user. Additionally speech
recognition would allow for a hands free experience that the
user can safely input information into the device and complete
tasks. The cellular network connection provided with this
concept would allow for the user to easily complete tasks and
communicate wherever a connection is available.
Concept 6
Concept: Battery, Camera, Projected AR HUD, Speech
Recognition, Bluetooth
Explanation: This concept is very solid due to the reliability of
the battery and camera to sense the environment. The project
AR HUD provides a great user feedback, so the individual has a
simple, easy to understand user interface. With speech
recognition technology, the user has a safe, hands free
experience that allows them to input commands and therefore
complete tasks. Bluetooth will allow for connection to other
devices and additional features. Overall, this concept is
accommodates to many consumers and the technology is
feasible.

feedback on the environment, and based on hand motion the
device can determine what the user wishes to do. Bluetooth will
allow the individual to connect with other devices.Step 4:
Check Work
The solutions provided are correct, the assumptions are
reasonable, and based on the team’s knowledge and the
resources provided the results make sense. The framework for
solving the problem allowed the team to create the conceptual
design process. The solution could be improved by consulting
with additional experts about what weights to give each
individual category and help draw better conclusions with the
utility function. Additional research could also be done online
to identify better weights for each category.Step 5: Learn and
Generalize
The team underwent the conceptual design process for Theia’s
new product that allows people to simplify their lives. We
became more familiar with each step in the process and
developing a utility function to identify product concepts for
further development. The choice to proceed developing concept
4 and concept 6 was possible by developing an absolute weight
for each of the selection criteria and then proceed to come up
with a corresponding rating of 1 to 5 for each product. The best
concept are not always the most innovative, some of the
concepts were higher in rating due to their reliability, safety,
overall feasibility, or sustainability of the environment.
Phase Ⅱ ReportStep 1: Define the Problem
Create a well-structured Project Phase Ⅱ report documenting all
the work done.
Step 2: Create a Plan
· Information available for solving the problem?
· Project: Phase Ⅱ handout
· What assumptions need to be made to make the solution
process manageable?
· For the solution process to be manageable, we need to assume
that our current assessment of our product is correct and
consistent.
· What analysis needs to be performed to resolve the issues
defined in Step 1?
· Phase Ⅰ backlog
· Project Planning
· House of Quality
· Aggregate Project Plan
· Reverse Engineering (includes FAST analysis + diagram)
· Conceptual DesignStep 3: Execute
· Project Planning
· To successfully develop our product we must follow a strict
development order and prioritize appropriately. In this task we
are working towards the goal to move forward with a new
product in the next year. Due to time restrictions, we must
follow this guideline due to the fact that many of the sub
projects rely on others to be completed or near completed to
begin developing. Without following a strict development
schedule, like this one, it will not be possible to implement our
existing technology and develop a prototype within a year. By
using a project plan we are able to identify critical subprojects
to work on with our existing operating system and core
software.
· House of Quality
· Our House of Quality allows us to establish important features
of our product when comparing theia’s product against
competitors. By understanding customer needs, we were able to
establish technical needs we plan to accomplish including
ergonomics, weight, boot time, latency, and so on. In order to
establish our technical focus we rated the importance of each
feature from a development perspective with consideration of
how these metrics coincide with customer needs. By
establishing the two relationships, between technical metrics
and customer needs, we are able to visualize our focus on each
facet of our product. For example, a technical metric, such as
boot time, meets the customer needs for user friendly interface
and battery life. HOQ is an extremely useful method of
aligning company product development goals with customer
needs.
· Aggregate Project Plan
· By using the Aggregate Project Plan we can select the right
mix of product development projects, we are able to visualize
the appropriate decision analysis and optimization framework.
For this step in the plan, we must assume we part of the
research and development team at Theia who is focusing on
“Augmented Reality” oriented towards consumer needs. In the
end, we strive to commercialize a product that has the potential
to change the way people interact with the world around them.
After applying the decision analysis to our framework, we see
that it is most profitable to fund the technical study and develop
the product ourselves. This product is expected to yield a profit
of 482.8 million dollars if we venture into the entertainment
industry.
· Reverse Engineering (includes FAST analysis + diagram)
· By reverse engineering similar products such as Google Glass,
Vuzix Blade, Snap Spectacles, and Sony Smarteyeglass HUD,
our team was able to assess which functions and subfunctions
are most important. Using a FAST analysis helped our team
create the structured plan for developing a house of quality for
the company’s existing products. The FAST analysis and
diagram helped our team transition from the whys and how of
smart glass functionality to assessing the relationship between
customer needs and technical metrics.
· Conceptual Design
· Our team underwent the conceptual design process for Theia’s
new product that allows people to simplify their lives. By using
this process, we became more familiar with each step we need
to take and develop a utility function to identify product
concepts we plan to develop in the near future. In our process
we decided concept four and concept six were feasibly to
develop by assessing the absolute weight for each selection
criteria. The two remaining concept selections have similarities
of battery operation and cameras to observe its surrounding
environment. The main differences between our last two
concept selections is that concept four and concept six is in the
feedback from user recognition, sensing hand motion versus
speech recognition.
Step 4: Check Work
The above practices are correct, the assumptions are reasonable,
and based on the team’s knowledge and resources provided the
results make sense.The framework for solving the above
problems allowed for our team to create a HOQ, Aggregate
Project Plan, Reverse Engineering, and Conceptual Design. Our
solutions could be improved by consulting with additional
experts about current processes and specific metrics needed to
properly continue development. Additional research could also
be done online to better understand technical metrics and
concept design practices for this solution.Step 5: Learn and
Generalize
The above practices have allowed for our team to establish
customer needs, technical metrics to meet, provide a strict
guideline for further development, and create potential new
products. In order for this process to be successful it is
important to stay on track with our plan and prioritize
appropriately with the large number of sub projects. We have
established the vitality of project planning by understanding the
tasks at hand and align our goals with customer needs.

Only then can other subprojects be worked on. Once the physical framework of our product is developed can we begin to work on all other projects besides the operating system. 6. Assign Clear Roles and Responsibilities & track progress We will begin by assigning all available labor to design our operating systems and core software. Once the critical components are complete our design team can work with a small subgroup of engineers to create the display technology and physical frame of the glasses. Once that is complete, a small portion of our engineers will finish developing the core software and the rest of the engineers will be split into various subprojects.Step 4: Check Work Our work aligns with our project plans and needs. Step 5: Learn and Generalize To successfully develop our product we must follow a strict development order and prioritize appropriately due to the fact that many of the sub projects rely on others to be completed or near completed to begin developing. Without following a strict development schedule, it will not be possible to implement our existing technology and develop a prototype within a year. House of Quality (HOQ) for Theia’s Smart GlassesStep 1: Define the Problem Use the structured problem-solving process to create an explicit plan for developing the HOQ for your company’s line of products. This process will include reverse engineering, and assigning specific tasks to the group membersStep 2: Create a Plan 1. Make a FAST diagram a. How do smart glasses work? b. Identify the main functions of modern smart glasses. c. Understand and note the “why?” and “how?” of smart glass functionality.
  • 8. d. Create FAST diagram. 2. Make a list of customer needs for our product based on what we’ve researched, assess the importance of each need using a convenience scale. 3. Make a technical metrics list and assess each metric using a convenience scale 4. Correlate customer needs from SP2 and technical metrics from SP3 using a correlation matrix 5. Correlate technical metrics to each other using a convenience scale. 6. Assess competing products using customer benchmarking and from a technical engineering viewpoint by using a convenience scale. 7. Set targets for customer needs and technical metrics. 8. Review work, and draw conclusions. Step 3: Execute 1. Create a FAST diagram a. Step 1 : First understand how the product works. Theia glasses are a wearable device that helps businesses improve the quality of their output thus enabling employees to work more efficiently. We are providing hands-on capabilities to professionals with glanceable, voice-activated assistance. Our glasses are designed to be there in a time of need and out of the way otherwise. b. Step 2 : Make a list of all the important subsystems that are relevant for your FAST diagram i. Built in camera ii. Bluetooth capabilities iii. Optical display iv. Microphones v. Android Operating System and Android platform APIs vi. Audio output via speaker, USB audio, BT audio c. Step 3 : Make a list of the primary (or main) function, & key sub-functions of the product (Subfunction refers to the function of a subsystem) i. Primary (main) function: Store and display information for
  • 9. relevant time periods. ii. Key sub-functions: 1. Use standard Android platform APIs and built in camera to get location data from available location providers 2. Optimize user input via voice commands (at least two words) 3. Utilize audio output and optical display to give user relevant information a. Grocery shopping list b. Directions to and from locations c. Set of instructions for a task d. Step 4 -6 : i. Write down the main function of the system on the extreme right of the diagram. ii. Organize the diagram with the why to the right and the hows to the left. iii. creating a FAST diagram for a complex product is a trial and error process: to minimize the trial & error work from both ends of the diagram (using results of step 2 & 3) 2.

Our information on the products could be improved with further research or guidance. Several other categories could be added to customer needs and technical
  • 19. metrics, but the team used the essential aspects to assess the product. Step 5: Learn and Generalize HOQ is a method used in product development that allows companies to pick the parameters by which they can make a comparison to other competing products. Using this technique we were able to establish the important features for our product. We established customer needs as ergonomics, weight, boot time, quality of camera, latency, and processing power. Using customer needs, we were able to specify the technical needs that we need to accomplish as: ergonomics, weight, boot time, quality of camera, latency, processing power, UI, and integration with other devices and peripheral sensors. To choose our technical features, we noted the importance of each feature from a development perspective with consideration to how well each feature coincides with customer needs. This allowed us to see how much we had to focus on each individual facet of our product. HOQ is an extremely useful method of aligning company product development goals with customer needs.

  • 45. Phase Ⅱ ReportStep 1: Define the Problem Create a well-structured Project Phase Ⅱ report documenting all the work done. Step 2: Create a Plan · Information available for solving the problem? · Project: Phase Ⅱ handout · What assumptions need to be made to make the solution process manageable? · For the solution process to be manageable, we need to assume that our current assessment of our product is correct and consistent. · What analysis needs to be performed to resolve the issues defined in Step 1? · Phase Ⅰ backlog · Project Planning · House of Quality · Aggregate Project Plan · Reverse Engineering (includes FAST analysis + diagram) · Conceptual DesignStep 3: Execute · Project Planning · To successfully develop our product we must follow a strict development order and prioritize appropriately. In this task we are working towards the goal to move forward with a new product in the next year. Due to time restrictions, we must follow this guideline due to the fact that many of the sub projects rely on others to be completed or near completed to begin developing. Without following a strict development schedule, like this one, it will not be possible to implement our existing technology and develop a prototype within a year. By using a project plan we are able to identify critical subprojects to work on with our existing operating system and core software. · House of Quality
  • 46. · Our House of Quality allows us to establish important features of our product when comparing theia’s product against competitors. By understanding customer needs, we were able to establish technical needs we plan to accomplish including ergonomics, weight, boot time, latency, and so on. In order to establish our technical focus we rated the importance of each feature from a development perspective with consideration of how these metrics coincide with customer needs. By establishing the two relationships, between technical metrics and customer needs, we are able to visualize our focus on each facet of our product. For example, a technical metric, such as boot time, meets the customer needs for user friendly interface and battery life. HOQ is an extremely useful method of aligning company product development goals with customer needs. · Aggregate Project Plan · By using the Aggregate Project Plan we can select the right mix of product development projects, we are able to visualize the appropriate decision analysis and optimization framework. For this step in the plan, we must assume we part of the research and development team at Theia who is focusing on “Augmented Reality” oriented towards consumer needs. In the end, we strive to commercialize a product that has the potential to change the way people interact with the world around them. After applying the decision analysis to our framework, we see that it is most profitable to fund the technical study and develop the product ourselves. This product is expected to yield a profit of 482.8 million dollars if we venture into the entertainment industry. · Reverse Engineering (includes FAST analysis + diagram) · By reverse engineering similar products such as Google Glass, Vuzix Blade, Snap Spectacles, and Sony Smarteyeglass HUD, our team was able to assess which functions and subfunctions are most important. Using a FAST analysis helped our team
  • 47. create the structured plan for developing a house of quality for the company’s existing products. The FAST analysis and diagram helped our team transition from the whys and how of smart glass functionality to assessing the relationship between customer needs and technical metrics. · Conceptual Design · Our team underwent the conceptual design process for Theia’s new product that allows people to simplify their lives. By using this process, we became more familiar with each step we need to take and develop a utility function to identify product concepts we plan to develop in the near future. In our process we decided concept four and concept six were feasibly to develop by assessing the absolute weight for each selection criteria. The two remaining concept selections have similarities of battery operation and cameras to observe its surrounding environment. The main differences between our last two concept selections is that concept four and concept six is in the feedback from user recognition, sensing hand motion versus speech recognition. Step 4: Check Work The above practices are correct, the assumptions are reasonable, and based on the team’s knowledge and resources provided the results make sense.The framework for solving the above problems allowed for our team to create a HOQ, Aggregate Project Plan, Reverse Engineering, and Conceptual Design. Our solutions could be improved by consulting with additional experts about current processes and specific metrics needed to properly continue development. Additional research could also be done online to better understand technical metrics and concept design practices for this solution.Step 5: Learn and Generalize The above practices have allowed for our team to establish customer needs, technical metrics to meet, provide a strict guideline for further development, and create potential new products.
