Product Design
Computer Science Model created as part of my Designing for Accessibility course.
My semester-long project involved creating an accessible model of memory diagrams for array-based structures. The goal was to support CS230 (computer science) students by offering a visual and hands-on representation of a computer science concept that accommodates diverse learning styles. My process was grounded in prototyping and post-assembly of the blocks. The project involved woodworking, engraving, painting, electronics, and the use of wood-cutting machines.
