JUSTIFICATION FOR SCORE GIVEN

Task 3: Justification for the Scores Given

Design No. Objective Score Allocated Justification for the Score
1 Safety + Safe for stationary use; no moving parts that could cause harm.
1 Ease of Use − Requires gesture recognition, which may be less intuitive for some users.
1 Portability −− Stationary design without wheels; difficult to move.
1 Use of Standard 0 No clear adherence to standard components or protocols.
1 Cost + Economical because it uses a simple sensor and display setup.
2 Safety Datum Baseline safety; moving head and wheels are manageable with proper control.
2 Ease of Use Datum Touch display and voice interface make the bot user-friendly.
2 Portability Datum Wheeled design allows movement within a building.
2 Use of Standard Datum Uses standard motors, sensors, and display components.
2 Cost Datum Balanced cost because of multiple integrated features.
3 Safety ++ Stable quadruped design reduces the risk of tipping.
3 Ease of Use ++ Voice interface and detection sensors improve user interaction.
3 Portability − Mobile but bulky; difficult to carry and transport.
3 Use of Standard + Uses standard servo motors and sensors.
3 Cost + Relatively high cost due to multiple servo motors and sensors.
4 Safety − Vertical lifting mechanism may create mechanical risks if not properly controlled.
4 Ease of Use ++ Simple welcome display and guided lifting mechanism make it easy to use.
4 Portability − Fixed vertical platform makes the design difficult to move.
4 Use of Standard 0 Lead-screw mechanism is commonly used but requires specialized components.
4 Cost + Relatively cost-effective because of the simple mechanical mechanism.

FUNCTION CLUSTERING

Activity 3: INTERACTIONS BETWEEN SUB-SYSTEM

Subsystem Interaction Aspect Subsystem 1 Subsystem 2 Interaction Details
Subsystem 1 Spatial — — Positioned on the head/front and aligned to the user's gestures.
Subsystem 1 Data — — Gesture signals are processed and trigger screen/voice responses.
Subsystem 1 Material — — No specific material interaction.
Subsystem 2 Spatial Display located centrally and visible to the user. Integrated in the torso and linked to the control hub. Central torso display and speaker.
Subsystem 2 Data Receives processed gesture signals and outputs text/voice. Control unit sends commands to screen/voice outputs. Control Unit → Display/Voice.
Subsystem 2 Material None None No specific material interaction.
Subsystem 3 Spatial Internal hub connecting sensors. Internal wiring links to display/speaker. Internal central hub.
Subsystem 3 Data Receives gesture data, interprets it, and makes decisions. Sends processed instructions to outputs. Input (gestures/voice) → Output (screen/voice).
Subsystem 3 Material None Electrical power supply. Electrical power supply.
