I&E Groups

Please post your I&E Groups in the comments below. Then, I ail compile them again.

Red Dot Museum (Malcolm Taong)

It substitutes numbers and hour and minute hands.
It uses letters of numbers and lights to show the time.
It modified the normal design of the clock.
It can be used to display chosen numbers.
It eliminates the hands and number on the normal clocks.
It can rearrange the numbers for easy recognition.


I have learnt that you can design things in a different manner not just the way normal stuff look like
.

Red dot museum (marcus)


Combine: it combines the bird and the lamp.Modify: It modified the normal ls lamp design.Put to other use: I can be a study lamp at home.Eliminate: The usual shape of a normal lamp.Rearrange: It is place together so it looks like a flock of bird.

Red Dot Museum Reflections -Henry Lee Jun



This is the AirTube Earphones. It stops the music when you pull it out of your ears and will start playing if you put it in your ears. This is very convenience as sometime the place you are in is very crowded thus very difficult to stop the music, so this is very helpful.


Red Dot Museum Post


SCAMPER
Substitute: It substitutes numbers and hour and minute hands
Combine: It combines light and letters
Adapt: It adapts light in it
Modify: It modifyed the normal clock design
Put to other use: It can also be used in SST Classrooms instead of the digital clocks
Eliminate: It eliminates numbers and the clock hands
Rearrange: Maybe it can rearrange its word in a better manner

Learn From It:
I have learnt that design can be better made and interesting 














Although I did not go for the trip, I have a picture

My Favourite Exhibit
It is a clock which uses letters and lights to display the time. It is very nice as in the dark, it also shows the time in  words
