functional viability was studied using initial prototype.. ball(made of aluminum foil filled with iron fillets ) was pulled up and dropped into the basket of shooter using a magnet .. and then the ball is shot into the target by orienting the shooter and pulling it back and releasing.

dimensions were to be scaled down.. and ergonomic considerations were to be taken into account. Also the game play needed to be refines to be more engaging.. Few other technical short comings like the collection of missed ball and dropping into the shooter was not easy..

sketch model was made using clay and a fish bowl. but the model and came out unaesthetic and bulky

This concept was selected as it was found to be engaging and required more attention for a short span of time so that the user can really take their mind off from the stressful work for few minutes and get an actual psychological break

keeping the primary purpose as "giving a mental break during heavy work load" many small single player implements were ideated.

AN IMPLIMENT THAT CAN BE USED BY IT PROFESSIONALS WORKING FROM HOME DURING MONOTONOUS WORK OR DURING SHORT BREAKS BETWEEN THE MONOTONOUS WORK AND HELP THEM TO TAKE A BREAK AND REDUCE STRESS AND REJUVINATE .

A design intervention can be done in the user’s short break time or during work hours by successfully accessing his/her psychological space...
