How to brainstorm the idea

Hi guys, this is the 8th blog already! I wont say it's a short time, but right now we really have to think about the practical solutions of our problem of too many vehicles. First we have to do brainstorming in order to achieve several ideas before we could sort it out and narrow down to some really useful ideas. 

Actually my group and I already did some brainstorming and mindmapping about the solutions before, and here is the result. Because we did this on the first class, we insert the 5W 1H (what, when, where, who, why and how ) as well to analyze the problem.

As you can see for the "How" (how to fix the problem), there are some ways that already existed and applied in the real life such as carpooling, limiting the number of license plates etc, some mainstream ways such as walking, biking etc, some extreme ways such as moving closer to work or school, and also some outside-of-the-box idea but hardly practical such as use iron man robotic suit, make wings and many more. Well it does sound nonsense, but who knows that someday they could really work right? ;)

We also did 1 more mindmap for the solutions that are really applied in some countries such as malaysia, singapore, indonesia, etc, as research purposes and inspirations for the solution that later me and my group will work on. So below are the details!

As the time to make our own design solution is closer, we decided to list up again all the possible ideas to 101 ideas. However it only takes us until 39 before our teacher stop us because we seemed like wasting time, listing the same thing over and over again. Then we decided to choose the top three idea and work on it. The lucky three we chose are the heelys (advanced shoes), the hoverboard, and the changing lane.

After that we decided to divide parts and do our own developments & sketches of the chosen idea before we try to compile all the idea into 1 big project. I got the hoverboard, while my groupmates, Haeseul, got the heelys, and Afiqah, got the changing lane.

So, are you curious about how the development and the idea goes? Off to my next blog! ;)
