CRITICAL FUNCTION

A critical function model was created to demonstrate the function of the final product. For the critical function the team was able to demonstrate the channeling of sun light through the skylight tube, artifical light (via. a rope light) illumination, and the diffusion by water of the skylight fixture. To demonstrate the end product, a mock room and roof structure were created with plywood. The components included a skylight lens, flexible mylar tubing, salad bowls as the water fixiture, a lamp shade as a diffuser, and a rope light. The critical function gave us an idea of the scale of the final product and what needed to be revised in order to have successful end product.
