Description
Summary:"Bock is a device that creates the feeling that time is passing faster for people to achieve an activity in an estimated time. The sound it emits changes the individuals time perception making them feel more productive. It was designed for a work environment in which people are constantly interrupted. In these collaborative spaces, it is common to ask your co-workers questions because your work depends on some of them. During the observation process in this context, it was found that this factor prevents people from completing their individual tasks on time. Bock takes these social dynamics into account and integrate them into a product that balances the time people spend with the co-workers and the time for their own tasks. As a result, people become more productive because they stay focused on not losing time while they are working on a specific activity." -- Tomado del Formato de Documento de Grado.
