| From the beginning we have tried to create the most effective team, therefore we used Project management tools like tasks distribution, found several solutions for communication and we set deadlines to ourselves. In our work we want to be precise an always give our best. It is important to hand in deliverables in time, unfortunately there was delay concerning some materials. While we were not able to build prototype we were focused on report, web-page, user manual, packaging, poster, video and bulb design. These parts of deliverables have progressed successfully and what is important, in time. We got materials two days before final assessment, this situation forced us to work faster and more effective. As much as we tried prototype production was not successful, lamp functions did not work. Reason of that problem was PCB which was wrong and also programming. Lack of time didn’t let us to correct these major mistakes. | As prototype of Modular LED Lamp was not fully successful in testing, new prototype needs to be developed. New PCB and programming improvements has to be done. Nowadays, people want to control everything from their computer and phone. It means an instant access to their devices. Therefore, development considering the remote control could be an option. Instead of using infrared communication between lamp and remote control, we could use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection between device and Web application or also design a mobile application for that purpose. |
| | We would like to decrease the size of the lamp. It is necessary to reduce PCB boards and use, for example, other movement detecting sensor in order to achieve smaller bulb dimensions. There are some opportunities for light bulb design development as well. For example, it would be better if there is possibility to move/turn movement detecting sensor. As ultrasound sensor was so big it was very difficult to place it the way that it would move. What is more, different material could be considered, because already used material is sensitive to heat and in high temperatures it could melt. In future design we can use a flexible material. |

| During all the semester we learned a lot about team work and studied lighting specifications in every field. We tried to create the best product we could considering objectives and advice given. | |
| |
| This experience gave us definitely advantage in future life. We were able to practice English, we studied lighting specifications, learned sustainability and marketing issues as well as improved our communication and cooperation skills. | |
