Effective Design
Making others feel comfortable with you is a key ingredient to all sorts of things: building friendships, collaborating effectively, and even studying wild dogs.
Try making a note of each thing the designers of the robotic dog added to make the robot successful.
How many different things were you able to identify? What else intrigues you about the robot?
To make this work, the designers engaged in a lot of planning. What is something you’d like to make happen, and how many details can you explore in trying to give yourself the best chance for success?
