Accessible Production Information for Manufacturing Line Associates at Blind Industries and Services of Maryland
Team: Advanced MultiD, Fall’20 – Spring’21: BISM
Program:
Multidisciplinary Design
Project Description:
We worked with the Blind Industries and Services of Maryland to create a system that gives associates on manufacturing lines more autonomy over their work. We designed a system that counts the number of items being made by a work team, stores the information, and then accessibly displays that production information to the associates. With increased knowledge about their daily progress, associates can make decisions about what steps to focus on in the assembly process and take ownership of achieving their production goals. We collaborated with students in the CS course User Interfaces and Mobile Applications for our mobile app design.
