Week 11 - Roadshow

15/11/2017

And the finale comes to SIGHT Camp 2017 as the teams play out their coda. It is the last chance for them to showcase their concepts and prototypes before ideas are chosen to progress to next semester. There was a plethora of designs and models, from skin care products to eye tracking games to a hand puppet theatre. Part of the perks of having teams prototyping snacks is that we get to taste some really tasty and one of a kind snacks! 

We are extremely grateful for our guest critics that came in to give invaluable feedback to our Campers. Therefore we would like to thank Prof. Ajay Joneja (IELM), Mr. Derek Lam (CEI), Prof. Vincent Li (MAE) and Mr. Donny Siu (SAO). Our gratitude also goes to Ms. Celia Chow, Ms. Winkie Fung, Ms. Yetta Ma, Ms. Calfee Tam and Ms. Stella Tseng, occupational therapists who came all the way from the Red Cross JFK Centre in Pok Fu Lam.

Stayed tuned for the results of SIGHT Camp 2017!

Mickey shows off his mochi
Henry on the throne
Campers react to pitches
Let's play doctor
After all this time, Pitch Night was finally here! Our teams showed off their ideas and prototypes, so thank the Sevens that we have 2 teams working on snacks so that we could all have some tasty snacks along the way, there were sachima, mochi, cookies...yum. Beyond snacks, other project teams came up with other ideas such as paper soap, eye trackers, surrogate hands and more!

The teams have now 2 weeks to hone their ideas for their Roadshow on 15/11, stay tuned for that!

    SIGHT CAMP

    is a 1-semester long non-credit bearing program, where SIGHT Campers are exposed to a myriad of global health issues via engaging with NGOs. Campers will follow-up on issues they find interest in, and from them develop solutions to solve these issues. The Camp is an accelerator of these ideas, providing workshops on design thinking, prototyping, product development, etc. The best ideas will stay and become fully-fledged SIGHT Projects in the Spring Semester.
