Question

Each student must find two Internet of Things or Connected Devices to critique. This can include: Apple/Android watches, Fitbit/Jawbone health monitors, NEST thermostats (or other smart thermostats) RING wireless doorbells (or similar devices), etc.

1. Critique the devices based on the principles we are studying in class. Comment on both form and function (e.g. how well does it operate AND how does it fit/look/feel?) For both devices, identify at least one area where the device uses one principle(s) we are discussing in class in an effective manner. If either or both sites violate any of the principles, discuss what they have done wrong (if you believe they have adhered to all of the principles, write a few sentences defending your position). As part of this critique, discuss any strengths and weaknesses of the sites you have selected.

For Apple/Android watches:

1.Design: The apple watch works on the principle of the iphone.
