Use the templates learned in the course in two ways: 1. To identify the patterns in existing products / product ideas. 2. To create a new product. This is an individual assignment and you are required to work alone (without consulting with others). You may use the course material as references (videos, slides and book). Tasks 1. Identify a product that could have been invented using one of the 5 templates learned in the course. This means a product in which you can identify one of the templates as if it was used to invent the idea for the product. You need to search for the product in one of the following crowd funding platforms: a. Indiegogo https://www.indiegogo.com b. Kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com 2. Briefly describe the chosen product and provide the URL of the product page. 3. Which template could have been used to invent the product? 4. Explain how that template could have been used to create it. You need to be specific and give all the necessary details that are part of the template steps. 5. Starting from the chosen product from task #1, choose a different template than that mentioned in task #3 to create a new innovation. Make sure you explain how the template was implemented according to the steps learned for each template. 6. What are the benefits of your new concept? Submission Guidelines: 1. 2. 3.
