GOZINTO Diagram

Hey!
Ok, so I finally finished making the GOZINTO diagram again (the first one was unable to be located on my computer after saving it). The diagram shows every component of our pill dispensing device; it also shows any sub-components. The diagram is a good tool to visualize everything that goes into a device. It definitely helped our group see exactly how each component contributed to the device as a whole. The hardest part about making the diagram, besides figuring out how it was going to all fit onto one powerpoint slide, was remembering everything that made up our device; for example, I almost forgot to put the battery and charger on the diagram! I feel like I overlooked these very vital components because I was only focusing on the pill storage and pill dispensing part of the device, which are the main reasons for the device but are completely useless without other components. Here is our diagram (this is not exactly the one being used in our presentation since we edited it further after I emailed it to my group, but it is roughly 98% the same):
