Ultimaker Design engine Challenge Week 4

The task for week 4 required crafting an instrument tailored for sketching and drawing. The parameters were specific: the device had to be compact, appealing to teenagers, and inspired by artist Jeff Koons. Our design adhered to these requirements in several ways. To address the challenge, we created a special pen designed specifically for tracing sketches and making them appear darker. This tool fits comfortably within the typical size of regular pens, meeting the constraint of being small. To cater to teenagers, we added a built-in TV screen and a controller on top of the pen. Many teens enjoy watching TV shows and playing video games, so incorporating these elements made our product more relatable to this demographic. The connection to Jeff Koons was straightforward: we opted for stainless steel as the material for the pen, much like some of his artwork.
