This week, we kicked off our project with a dive into two key ideas pivotal to its success.

Firstly, our efforts were directed towards crafting a glove tailored to streamline the task of slicing food items, notably meat, while ensuring comfort for the user, Diego. This glove boasts a design that allows for secure and ergonomic knife handling. To materialize this concept, we sewed an initial prototype using fabric scraps. Within the knife insertion area, we integrated a protective and cushioned layer, guaranteeing a smoother experience and mitigating any discomfort or injury resulting from direct knife contact.

Following this, we proceeded to test the manufactured glove and gauge user experience. Despite our efforts, we identified persistent challenges in activity execution. We detected that most of the time the knife would rotate and wouldn't allow the user to cut food seamlessly. Nonetheless, we remain steadfast in our commitment to refining the glove to enhance the overall user experience.
