The team presented a fruit-themed remote control prototype with a proposed titanium case, strawberry decorations, an LCD, buttons and a jog wheel. Its planned features included speech recognition, a voice-activated location finder and customizable display colours.

The team evaluated the design for fanciness, technology, robustness, usefulness, size and weight, colour and shape, and adaptability. They considered it promising, although they questioned the strawberries’ usefulness and the prototype’s weight. They reported an overall score of 2.17 out of 7, with lower scores indicating better results.

The initial cost estimate was 17.8, above the roughly 12.50 target. The team discussed replacing the battery with a hand dynamo and then entered a negative chip quantity in the calculator, which made the displayed total meet the target but did not establish a credible production cost.

In their final self-assessment, participants praised the team’s creativity, collaboration and timely meetings, and noted ideas such as speech recognition and location finding. They closed by proposing a celebration.
