Product Design: A Camera That Helps People to Be More Creative

Eureka Alumni, Student L* worked together with a Dartmouth Professor to design a photo taking equipment that combines the user-friendliness, portability, and social media connectivity of phone cameras with the higher performance and flexibility of professional cameras. The target consumers are the designer and their friends who have an interest in photography, and the designer has conducted interviews with people who vary in their level of professionalism to identify what existing photo taking equipment cannot do for them. The interviews include character sketches of the interviewees' usual picture-taking methods, reflections on current equipment, and examples of their work. She is currently studying at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU).
