The journey of innovation is often marked by iterations, learning, and pursuit of perfection. This has been the case for Trident Trio, the winners of the STEMblem Transition Year Competition. Their project, a drink coaster with a difference, along with their professional presentation, stood out to the judges, earning them first place and leading to the development of their product with Mint Tek Circuits.
Here is the product development process so far…
Design 1
In Design 1, the team experimented with slow-flashing-coloured LEDs, which added a vibrant touch to the coaster. While this initial design was promising, the team felt that something was missing.
Design 2
For Design 2, we incorporated the slow-flashing-coloured LEDs and strategically placed windows in the top of the coaster. This allows light to pass through the glass, creating a visually striking effect.
Here are the three talented members of Trident Trio proudly holding their prototype!
