Flip-o-Matic
The goal of this project was to use the design process to create a product. Following the design process the first step was to identify a problem and research it in depth. We identifed flipping objects as a big problem that needed a better soluition. After interviewing our friends and family we found that mose people use a spatula to flip burgers, pancakes, etc. This process is usually stressful and can end in catastrophe if the flip is not performed well. From here we had the idea for a spatula that would flip better. Needs We identified what we want the spatula to be able to do and started to sketch different ideas. The first variable we found was the turn angle, spatula-food-interaction shape, and flipping mechanism.
