What Is Design Thinking?
Design thinking is all about developing and launching innovative ideas, concepts, prototypes
and business models is essential for the continuity of the firm. The reason that makes
innovation difficult is that a lot of people have to change their conviction and habits before
something really new will be deployed. The basic flow of Design Thinking Process start with
the problem or a challenge we have identified from- experience, dreams, necessity, facing
problems, existing products, creative nature, novel combination of existing ideas,
surroundings, doing work. Design Engineering is a general term that covers multiple
engineering disciplines including electrical, mechanical, chemical engineer, aeronautical
engineer, civil, Computer Engineering, Information Technology and
structural/building/architectural engineers. The uniting concept is a focus on applying the
'engineering design process, in which engineers develop new products or processes with a
primary emphasis on functional utility.
Learning Tools and Its Importance
Design of a new product usually starts with a forward design process in which the
need is put forward by a customer/client.
The students work in group to solve challenging open-ended design problems. They
come up with several feasible alternative solutions from which the best solution is
taken for further studies and analysis. Since the design process course in our
engineering school heavily emphasizes involving the students in hands-on learning
activities, it helps them to understand the how to buy the products easily.

INTRODUCTION OF PROJECT
Agriculture is the broadest economic sector and plays an important role in the overall
economic development of a nation. Technological advancements in the arena of agriculture
will ascertain to increase the competence of certain farming activities. We have proposed a
novel methodology for smart farming by linking a smart system through wireless
communication technology. Our system focuses on the features that make our application
more efficient which includes database of soil, crop, insects, voice recognition system,
weather forecasting and language translation that plays a vital role in making farming
activities easier. The application will have a weather forecast report which will help the
farmers to keep a check on heavy rains. Another interesting feature provided is the database
of soil, crops and insects. This database will provide information to the farmers in an easy
manner. Voice recognition will be provided in the application so that farmers can easily
access the information. For this purpose language translator will be used.

EMPATHY CANVAS
To define any user centric problem we need to know the user properly. That was what this
canvas was all about. We thought of so many people but wanted to go for some people that
mostly remain untouched by technology but are larger in number. They cover a large mass
but are least touched with technology.
After that the next portion was stakeholders, who are the people that directly or indirectly
make an impact on the life of, our user. After thinking we got so many names. The simple
looking life of users is surrounded with many stakeholders that make an impact on his life
and profession.
Hands on exercise on Story Boarding Canvas
Last and the most interesting part was the ‘Story Boards’ which can be called the board of
emotion understanding the problem of society is one of the biggest challenges for engineering
student as till now they were making project on imaginary ideas. So the day 1 session was
based on understanding the domains of the problem in broader sense which emphasized on
interacting with the people of your domain area which included more of casual talk rather
than technical session. It focused on making people comfortable in discussing their problem
with our students. And this activity was named as story boarding canvass.
It helped us understand that when we build anything for anyone, the purpose and emotion
behind that are equally important. So many stories were striking to our minds and we drafted
the four which we thought were connected to the roots of being a User. This process
somehow gave us a feeling of being in the shoes of a user, and with that the first canvas was
complete.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT CANVAS
In this Canvas we have mentioned purpose of our product, functions, features, revalidation
and product’s experience. Purpose of our product is to use shopping apps with voice
recognition to reduce effort of the customers.
The first thing we had to do was clarify the purpose of our product. Our purpose was clear: to
easy access and management and help customers.
For this purpose, we defined some functions that our product must do. These included, for
each of the function that our product fulfilled, we had to include one or more features that
supported that function.
In the next section we had to revalidate our product with the help of customers, who were, for
the moment, other teams that were working like us on different designs. Most of our features
were validated as extremely useful by other teams.
We had to redesign some features in the next section. These features were both the ones that
were extremely useful and the ones that we are moderately relevant. We optimized the
features that were useful and made them even better.
There was a section on this canvas where we had to write down about customer experience.
Here we had to write what the user would feel when using our product. We wrote about how
the work of people to be simplified and how grateful and innovative the user would feel.

Ideation Canvas is where first we started with people, where we simply thought about the people
for whom we want to solve the problem. For our product we listed the people like engineers,
operators, farmers, customer, updater, laboratory assistant, agricultural scientists, agricultural
professors and agricultural students. Then list out whatever activity every segment of people do.
Then thought for context/location/situation and finally for possible solutions.
We conclude that by implementing our system in the future as well as the effectiveness of the
system intention we can reduce the effort of our farmers and help them. It includes various
activites such as weather forecasting, database management, voice recognition and expert advice.

Feedback analysis
Integrating customer knowledge in the research and development phase is a way of refining
products both before and after launch. The information collected on various channels can be
easily filtered and integrated in R&D. Thus, feedback analysis helps us to improve our
product. It also provides new ideas from the customers. Being responsive to customer
feedback also brings companies closer to their target audience. Here are some feedbacks from
the audience who will use our application.
Feedback 1: The targeted audience for our application are farmers. The growing technology
will undertake responsibilities of agriculture. There was the positive feedback reported from
the farmers. They thought it would reduce the effort as they could easily get results. They
also helped us by providing us the idea for the language translator to be added as a feature.
Feedback 2: Another group of targeted audience were agricultural students and professors.
We recorded a positive response from them. They thought of it as it would relieve their work.
Now they could easily concentrate on multiple work which would be time saving.
Feedback 3: One negative response was recorded from the farmers which turned us for
thinking that if wrong words are spoken then it should directly correct the words. This is a
good feedback which will help us in the future.
Feedback 4: Another negative response was recorded which gave us an idea that we need to
classify the given data into a proper database which would have a simpler graphics which
could be easily understood by everyone.
Feedback 5: A positive response was recorded which from the farmers which would also
provide them the information about the proper information about the prices of the crops.after
using this application there would be the uniform cost of all the prices.
Feedback 6: A negative response was recorded regarding the weather forecasting feature that
it would not be used in remote areas where network is available properly.
Feedback 7: A positive response was recorded by the homemakers that they could know the
condition of growing the crops on a small scale as hobby.

L.N.M MATRIX
Learning Needs Matrix will helps us to identify the learning requirements at an early stage along with
prioritization of specific learning along with defined time duration/ time allocation for each learning
priority.
Identification will be focused on listing out both
(i) the learning, which is included in some subject of the formal syllabus of our branch and
(ii) the learning, which is required for solving the Design problem and which may not be included in
the formal syllabi of the other subjects.
All such learning, required for developing the product, should be considered to be required to be
studied for the group of students, who are working on the product. It may include learning of specific
skills.

REVERSE ENGINEERING
What is Reverse Engineering?
It is a process of analyzing software with a view to understanding its design and
specification. May be part of a re-engineering process but may also be used to re-specify a
system for re-implementation. Builds a program data base and generates information from
this. Program understanding tools (browsers, cross-reference generators, etc.) may be used in
this process .
Reverse Engineering Process :
Reverse engineering often precedes re-engineering but is sometimes worthwhile in its own
right. The design and specification of a system may be reverse engineered so that they can be
an input to the requirements specification process for the system’s replacement. The design
and specification may be reverse engineered to support program maintenance.
