Feedback from Scott:
Design of the trolley should be worked on and further improved. The overall system is good but need to find ways to actually engage shoppers through moral or financial incentives to support the cause of reducing food waste. There are many possible ways to improve the shopping experience and make the system even more meaningful so that people will be interested to support the cause. I should look at food packaging, labeling, food tags, etc for more ideas.
Feedback from classmates:
Clare Ren Zi Han:
You should add decals of charity associations or supermarket partners on the trolley for the awareness.
Felicia Levina:
You should think about how to educate the public about leftovers and their impact towards the environment.
Reflection:
I should play around with the form of the product and its specific details, materials, and finishes.
I need to come up with better visuals to show how the service system will look like in real life.
Find more ways to engage the public/shoppers.
The idea about being able to buy food that is tarnished or with aesthetic damage is positive. I understand why supermarkets don't do it because of the rules and regulations associated with it, but you'd think with the wastage that occurs and the people that go hungry, we'd be able to budge on such harsh issues. The idea in principle is great, however I'm not sold on the trolley idea. Why not just use a conventional trolley? I do understand though that it is an image based perception and if you're seen to be using a trolley that is supporting less food wastage then that is a good thing. Good work!
