Design Thinking Video from MIT & Altitude

MIT partnered with Altitude to create a video to explain what Design Thinking is, it’s value to companies who want to innovate and the process behind it. Design Thinking is growing in popularity and yet acceptance is still shrouded in mystery. MIT recognizes the need for a video that brings the process to light.
The “Mobilizer” is used as an example here to help assist the elderly to walk. The next iteration could be an IoT solution outfitted with sensors and more, but this depends on what the consumer needs. Design Thinking is about putting the consumer (or user) at the hub to uncover what the consumer truly needs - and not what a company wants a consumer to need.

The product looks really great, but the seating... user gets less space to sit because the center part of the handlebar is projecting towards the seating area. Providing small back support (cushioning) so that it won't hurt the back. Maybe the bag cover can be used for this purpose. Flip towards the seating side while sitting on the chair.

Amazing! It really motivates me in my current field and career! Congrats to all the team!

Fantastic, the product came out very well. But, I feel that the seat makes user little uncomfortable to sit, is it so?

Hi ! I came across this video during my course at MIT Sloan school. Just one question, for the purpose of this video, you've shown feedback from one user. How many users do you recommend should be consulted for feedback while developing a commercial product ?

[@mohammadfaisal8605]

Nice video 😊😊

Hi, I discoverer your video while I was following the MIT Sloan course on Design Thinking. I love your video and I would like to subtitle it in French for my colleagues. Would you give me an authorization to do so?

[@chengchuan7229]

so basically they merged a walker with a baby pram...

[@prajwalpatil2760]

Can anyone please help me understand the 7 stages of Design Thinking

Compare this program with the integrated design program in CMU, you will find out how not innovative and not quite qualified this program is and called by this name. By the way, check the IDEO 1999 shopping cart video (a very famous documentary in human-centered design. The founder of IDEO basically founds Stanford D.school), this video is an imitation of that one (a project has been done 20 years ago). This video makes the program feel like "Not quite innovative; Not like MIT at all." That is probably this program that has a separate website, apart from MIT official website.
