Project 1:
Natural Air Freshener

Lecturer Supervisor:
Mr Ang Chee Keng Don (ME)

Students:
Chen Junda (PDI Level 3)
Wong Keet Yan (PDI Level 3)

Abstract:
This is an innovative air freshener design that uses natural ingredients such as fragrant flowers and leaves instead of chemicals.

Detailed Description:
Air fresheners are widely used in offices, automobiles and at home. Existing air fresheners use chemicals to produce the required perfume. However, some people prefer fragrance from natural flowers and leaves, such as Jasmine flowers and Pandan leaves. The project involves the design of a new air freshener that allows flowers and leaves, prepared or cut to appropriate sizes, to be filled, added or replaced when necessary. Two prototypes are to be produced, one for use at home or office and the other for use in automobiles. Flower and leaf refills will be prepared and sold in packets of certain volume. The product can be sold in supermarkets and departmental stores.

The product is unique as there is no similar existing product, based on research done. The product gives the users an alternative means to have the desired fragrance in a room. It is especially suitable for users who are sensitive or allergic to certain chemicals. It is environmentally friendly as it uses natural items.

Detailed Description:
Workshop hand tools are designed to do the tasks in the workshop, but with little considerations in their appearance or aesthetics. Also, hand tools are generally designed by and for the male workers. They therefore look rugged but lack interest in their form.

In the project, a research is first carried out to study the existing workshop hand tools, to identify shortcomings and potential areas of improvement. A new set of workshop hand tools will be designed, and a prototype of 8 to 10 pieces of hand tools with a carrying container, will be produced. The new design will look modern, suitable for both male and female users. Each hand tool will be designed with maximum ergonomic efficiency.
