   * Healing-promoting design: In collaboration with experts, a color concept of positive, natural colors was chosen that can actively support the user's healing process.   * Healing-promoting design: In collaboration with experts, a color concept of positive, natural colors was chosen that can actively support the user's healing process.
  
-Through this combination of technical sophistication and high-quality choice of materials, we have succeeded in creating a harmonious and functional overall image of the “Cocoon”.+The BOM still needs to be completed
  
-==== 6th Week ====+==== 6th Week Report ==== 
 + 
 +In the last working week, our team (Team 6, EPS 2026) reached significant milestones in the development of the “Healing Cocoon” to realize the vision of transforming moments of fear in children's waiting rooms into positive experiences. 
 + 
 +Conception and marketing strategy A key focus was on the strategic orientation. We finalized the SWOT analysis and particularly highlighted the strengths of our product - such as complete accessibility and high hygiene standards.  
 +Our product flyer was completed to clearly present core aspects such as multisensory relaxation (scents, sounds and 180° projections). In addition, the market positioning as a high-quality solution for pediatric facilities was sharpened. 
 + 
 +Technical design and accessibility Significant advances have been made in the area of ​​construction: 
 +  * The structural drawings and technical schematics for the system are now fully developed. 
 +  * Particular attention was paid to wheelchair accessibility in order to guarantee inclusive use. 
 +  * The choice of materials was made with sustainability in mind. We rely on durable and recyclable materials such as aluminum and brass and prefer to work with local suppliers. 
 + 
 +Sensor technology and multisensory experience In order to achieve the goal of reducing anxiety, we have specified the technical equipment of the cabin: 
 +  * The integration of a lavender scent system and music therapy elements was technically planned to create a calming atmosphere. 
 +  * The visual concept uses a palette of blue, green and purple to promote relaxation and balance. 
 +  * We have completed the selection of electronic components, such as the ESP32 DevKit, as well as sensors for humidity, temperature and CO2, to ensure a safe and smart environment. 
 + 
 +Digital development: website and dashboard In addition to the physical components, we worked intensively on the website for the “Healing Cocoon”. The user interface for the “Smart System” was developed, which includes a login page for clinics and a clear dashboard (user page). This dashboard allows medical staff to easily manage sessions, check accessibility status, and select different relaxation environments (such as “Ocean” or “Forest”) for the children. 
 + 
 +By combining technical precision, well-thought-out marketing and intuitive digital control, the project took a big step towards prototyping this week. 
 + 
 +==== 7th Week Report ==== 
 +This week we made significant progress in the development of the “Healing Cocoon”, with the focus on improved accessibility, technical development and child-friendly design. 
 +Optimizing design and accessibility a significant advance concerns the physical construction of the Cocoon. We decided to remove the original ramp so that the Cocoon is now at ground level. This adaptation enables barrier-free access for wheelchair users and at the same time makes the product more space-saving, which makes it much easier to integrate into waiting rooms in clinics or therapy centers.  
 + 
 +To better illustrate these innovations, we have created a 3D video of our product, which makes the vision of the “Sense of Wonder” tangible. 
 + 
 +Technical development of the smart system: In close coordination with Louis, we developed the smart system in detail.  
 + 
 +Material research and sustainability: We have intensified our research into materials and local partner companies in order to meet the high requirements for hygiene and sustainability.

-/!\ in the swot: in strengths: "Inclusive and wheelchair access" (and not "accessible") +We must resolve key technical and design details including the speaker's connectivity, the scent diffuser's placement, and updating our schematics to include the projector and motors. To ensure true accessibility and safety, we need to detach the control tablet for wheelchair users and source antimicrobial textiles, such as Creation Baumann hospital curtains. Finally, we must update the flyer with the latest wheeled chair design, explicitly list "Inclusive and wheelchair access" in the SWOT, and complete the main report with thorough competitor and research analysis.
-  +
-Flyer: we just need to add the last design with the chair and small wheels +
-  +
-Speaker: how it will work? microcontroller? Wi-Fi? Blueutooth? MP3 shifts(?)  +
-  +
-/!\ schematics need to be compatible with the new design: do we need to put the projector inside the schematics?? vibration/motion motor? +
-  +
-/!\ Design: scent diffuser put on the top OR bottom of the cocoon? Because naturally the smell might be able to move from bottom to the top? +
-  +
-ALSO: we need to detach the tablet from the big chair because how the child in wheelchair will control it? +
-  +
-Materials: antimicrobial textile: curtain of hospital => silver ions, Creation Baumann +
-   +
-The report is still very incomplete (introduction, products already existing that we need to compare with our idea, the researches done on this subject, the choice we did)+

 +Really nice logo with nice colors and design.
 +It was a nice idea to all come dressed the same way, with the logo printed on our t-shirts.
 +We need to provide more justification for our choices of materials and suppliers, and expand the background section. We should think about what makes our product intended for children.
 +No paper or tablet materials will be used during the upcoming presentation.
