Could you imagine Boba Fett using a device such as this?
Team Ecstasy • Kyle Rodgers! • Taylor Hocutt! • Ewa Tondel! • André Sampson! ! • Problem – Core Bounty hunters need tools to incapacitate targets, while not seriously injuring them.! • Population – demographic! ! • Big idea – Average moviegoer TRAPS, working in accordance with Boba’s existing technologies! Net 2.0 Capture Net 2.0 Final Concept Final Concept (Continued) Assumptions • Faceless Bounty hunter! • Requires tools for capturing live targets! • No reliable tools to take bounties non lethally! • Armor’s technological capabilities allow for additional enhancements! Primary • Interview conducted with Carol Tilley, AP! – Specializes in comic books.! ! • Interviews conducted with internet users (reddit)! • What we gathered:! – Facelessness and mercenary aspects have cultivated a cult following! – “Badass”! – Lone ranger! – Jetpack crucial to arsenal! – Resourceful ! • Relevance! – Population’s perception of Boba! – Guided design of new tool! Secondary • New Han Solo and Boba Fett Spinoff Movie! – More of Boba’s story to be told! • http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/06/han-solo-movie-boba-fettmovie-star-wars_n_2631584.html! • Boba Fett Character Profile! – – – – – “Born" on the planet Kamino! Clone of bounty hunter Jango Fett! Trained as a bounty hunter at young age! Jedi killed his father! Questionable motivations ! • http://scifi.about.com/od/starwarscharacters/a/SWAR_profiles_BobaFett.htm! • Boba Fett’s Arsenal ! h.p://onlyhdwallpapers.com/wallpaper/boba_fe._desktop_1440x1059_hd-‐wallpaper-‐823178.jpg insights • Anonymity -‐-‐ Mysteriousness synonymous with Boba Fe. -‐-‐ Never see his face • Boba’s Cult Following -‐-‐ Unique character with an unclear background fuels intrigue • Concepts may affect how future movies portray Boba • Gadget Dependent – No jedi mind tricks – Requires tools to be effecVve – Need to design a tool that isn't already in his arsenal, but would fall inline with his character [show a couple of your ideas: sketches] Concept Exploration Concept Exploration (Continued) Drone Scanner ! ! ! ! ! Wrist Mounted ! !Scanner! Specs h.p://dux.typepad.com/dux/2009/08/sketching-‐design.html Specs (Continued) Specs • • • • • • • • • • • (Continued) Short range (affective = 5m, fall off 10m)! Single- fire weapon! Fully rotatable (180 degrees of rotation)! Detachable! Electrifiable! Remote controlled! Direct feed to Helmet from camera! Woven titanium material net! Titanium weights encased in power cell! Helmet mounted laser targeted! Voice activated! Reloading integration usability Testing Taylor – 20 Female, casual moviegoer! ! If you had these items, and you wanted to fire a T.R.A.P.S. unit, how would you do it?! • Just look at what I wanted to shoot with the net and say "fire net1" (inverted command sequence. possible lack of comprehension? seems minor)! If you wanted to use a T.R.A.P.S. unit as a wall or ceiling mounted landmine, how would you do it?! • I just have to take it off of the jet pack right? is there a button i would need to push to get it off? other than that id just stick it to the wall, wait for someone to walk by and say "fire net1". (subject gets it in essence but raises a fair point. does he just grab and remove the pod? or does he have to disengage it somehow?)! Do you remember what T.R.A.P.S. stands for?! • Targeting something something Snare? sorry (its my opinion that they got the important bits, and that they understand what this device is in essence.)! Could you imagine Boba Fett using a device such as this?! • Yeah, it makes sense, I mean he’s gotta take people alive right?! Could you imagine this device effectively capturing some one?! • Totally, but they might be able to untangle themselves if Boba didn't get there fast enough! Do you think this interferes with who Boba Fett is?! • It makes him feel a bit less dangerous you know? but it does sorta make sense that he would need something like this. he just might not use it often, I bet he prefers to take his bounties dead. ! Testing (Continued) Kyle – 20 male, casual moviegoer! If you were to implement a T.R.A.P.S. unit, how would you go about doing that?! • Aim helmet mounted laser at target; speak "fire 1”! ! If you wanted to use the wall mounted feature of T.R.A.P.S., how would you do that?! • Remove piece to reveal adhesive, attach to desired location, speak fire "whichever".! ! Do you remember what T.R.A.P.S. stands for?! • Target...! ! Could you imagine Boba Fett using a device such as this?! • Yes!! ! How effective is a trap such as this in the Star Wars universe? 1 - 10! • 7.5! ! How useful would a system such as T.R.A.P.S. be to a bounty hunter such as Boba Fett?! • Quite useful - able to more easily capture in a non-lethal manner ! Testing (Continued) Ewa – test subject?! If you were to implement a T.R.A.P.S. unit, how would you go about doing that?! • Voice activated. You can say "Fire net1" The laser decides where it shoots. ! ! If you wanted to use the wall mounted feature of T.R.A.P.S., how would you do that?! • Remove the net holder thing and then say a command. ! ! Do you remember what T.R.A.P.S. stands for?! • Uh, I know it ends with "snare."! ! Could you imagine Boba Fett using a device such as this?! • Yes, definitely. It seems like it would make catching bounty easier. ! ! Do you think it would effectively capture someone?! • For the most part yes. They shouln't stay in there for too long though, just in case they have a knife or something that can cut the net. ! ! Does it deviate from Boba Fett's character?! • No not really. He has absolutely every weapon you could think of already, so not much can deviate from his character.! Testing (Results) Users demonstrated confusion with remembering! T.R.A.P.S. acronym! – Typically recalled S = snares or T = target ! ! Understood general T.R.A.P.S concept! – Interactions and functions! ! Questioned reliability of net! – Targets could:! !Cut net! !Untangle themselves! ! Overall, T.R.A.P.S. was well received! Strategies • Business - create a tool that attracts viewers into being more interested in Boba Fett, and therefore having more viewers for the new Star Wars movie. We are going to have T.R.A.P.S. created and set before the production starts.! • Technical - capture the idea that he is a bounty hunter, not a killer. With T.R.A.P.S. he will be able to capture his bounty alive. ! • Social - appeal to those who are Boba Fett fans, and know his back story. With the new gadget, his story will also be able to be explained more and people will see that he is not as evil as they may predict. ! Acknowledgements Marty Siegel! ! Andrew Schroyer! ! Carol Tilley! Why the Shoulder? Considered Possibilities! !- Wrist mounted! !- New hand-held launcher! ! Hands free! !- Grenade launcher! ! Non-rifle dependent! !- Disarmed combat! !- Mixed lethality! voice failure? Many situations! !- Bullet in the throat! !- Compromises location! ! Manual Controls Feasible! !- Could easily be wrist-mounted! ! Limited Range? Realism! !- Shotgun is not long distance! !- Net not aerodynamic! ! Planned Failure! !- Limitations in tools lead to conflict! !- Conflict is interesting! !
