Week 12 - Fatigue
After many many hours of selecting and colouring, it becomes very tedious. It is now a process where I need to walk away after an hour or so and come back to it with a fresh pair of eyes. It can become repetitive and my quality of work does diminish as I push on. So I need to take breaks to refocus my eyes.

Week 10 Conflict Presentation
Presentation 1
Chew, Bao Wen
Taylor, Shaun Kelvin
Yolola, Jesharelah Alayan
Gonzales, Roschelle Anne
Corre, Eugelyn Lor Flores
Bautista, Reina Pineda
Comments
Informative presentation with a good defining of the types of conflicts. The slides were a bit to dense with information, however it was presented well. Good video, possibly could have been beneficial to have comments telling the issue, rather then having to verbally explain it.
Presentation 2
Kalgovas, Benjamin
Daming
Comments
Slides were a little boring, could have used more images and descriptions. Good use of diagrams to demonstrate main ideas.
Russell and Steve's Comments
Presentation points - slides were hard to read with text and images. More examples directly derived from what you have experienced. Problems followed by resolutions are a great idea to illustrate a point.
Types of conflicts that Exist
Independence conflicts - building up trust between members so that a fair balance of work is created.
Differences in background/ gender - you must be understanding and aware of others and your own background. We are all shaped by our past, so we must be aware of our actions and how they will affect others.
Differences in leadership - Its important that leaders present themselves equally following a set path of what needs to be completed. Its all about delivering an understandable message to the group.
Personality Clashes - the issues that arrise when people have contrasting styles or approaches to the work. If it is not managed early and effectively it can become a long term problem, constantly brewing until it becomes a problem that affects work flow.
Differences in styles and skill sets - Can be brought up through difference in ages. Older employees have developed different styles and skills compared to the newer members. A persons skills are something they are proud of and have spent a considerable time generating. If more then one member has similar skill sets but completes an activity in a different way to another, it can cause tension as each individual believes their way is correct.
Different Goals and Experiences - The group should develop goals that all members contribute to making. If the goals are generated by the whole team, it helps reduce conflict of opposing goals.

Week 10 - Grain and No Grain
The biggest issue we have found is that the scanned and photoshoped image from Russell had some graininess and degradation. I was able to find away in illustrator to do this to our own images. We will not be applying the affect till the very end, as it considerably slows down our computers every time it re-processes it.

Week 8 - Intellectual Property Presentation
Presentation 1
Raymundo, Alyssa
Kuljic, Vedran
Comments
The video at the start was a good way to introduce the topic, however it had way to much information jammed into each scene and was shown too quickly to keep up. The following presentation slides were full of valuable information but it was hard to decipher what was relevant and what wasn't because there was too much information.
Presentation 2
Zhao, Wei Xi Ricky
Lam, Dorothy Kar Yan
Nagaya, Maki
Koteski, Stefan

Kim, Dong-Hyuk (Alan)
Good video to start. Funny and interesting. presentation had a really good amount of information that was extremely relevant. A very broad but comprehensive look at IP and how it affects us. Great use of examples of IP and how they relate to your project.
Overall Russell's & Steve's Comments
- look out for spelling
- what is the application process of obtaining an IP
- relationship between copyright and patent
- how much differentiation does there need to be?
Information
Intellectual Property
The right to of the creator to protect a product, service or concept (creations of the mind). IP is important because it gives you recognition for the work you do. The Australian is the authority that issues and holds all intellectual property in Australia.
Types of Protection
Copyright - musical, literary and dramatic. There is no need to file for copyright instead it is automatically protected. Copyright lasts for 70 years or ends after death of owner.
Patents - have to apply for it, invention or method is protected, lasts 20 years before patent ends.
Trademark - branded, logos words, phrases, renewal every 10 years
Designs - new and distinctive features, protects the aesthetics not the functionality, lasts 10 years
Confidential Information - ownership over information, aka secret herbs and spices.
How to Register
1 - Go to http://www.ipaustralia.gov.au/
2 - Register for eServices
3 - Login to eServices
4- Complete relevant documentation for IP - This example is for a patent
All Application Processes
- Incur a cost, generally less then $500 for individuals
- Require you to submit information or proof of what you have done.
- Takes approximately 3 months or longer to attain.
Why Do We Care?
- IP restricts competitive markets
- Gets the owner the respect you deserve
- Gives you the ability to own the design or earn royalties off it.
What can we do if our IP is infringed upon?
- Take them to court
- Enforce your rights
- Get professional advice
What must be proven?
- Physical evidence that you are the owner
- Evidence that someone had tried to copy you
- Prove that they have used it without permission
Youtube IP
Youtube IP - standard - we can use information but cant copy or distribute
Youtube IP Creative commons, issue the right for others to use your designs
How does it relate to our project?
- The design of each bike the MV Augusta and the Honda 750k has its own design patent.
- Does Russell have his own exclusive rights to the sketches he made? Because they are sketches of existing designs.
- When we recreate russells designs who has the rights to the design?
- Is Russell's infringing on IP by creating his photo, because he took it from the internet? How does this affect us. Are we also infringing on IP by working for Russell?
Different Licences
Non Exclusive Licences - can sell to whoever they want as many times as they want.
Exclusive Licences - can only sell to one person, once.
Intellectual Property is a complicated process to understand but with the right guidance from professionals you can licence and manage your own designs so you can get the credit you deserve for your hard work. For our assignment the IP involved in quite complicated as to who owns what and what rights does each party have.

Week 9 - 123D Catch Update
This week I spent some time creating a 123D model from the photos Russell supplied to us. After a couple of expected, failed, attempts, I was able to generate a model to export to MeshLab. The spokes in the wheels are an issue, the capturing process has struggled to be able to differentiate each individual spoke, so this must be cleaned up later.

Animation from 123D Catch
Once I had exported the model to Meshlab it was much easier to edit compared to the MV Augusta. The Augusta model was quite complex and was generated from more photos. This meant that MeshLab was very slow and laggy having to deal with so many polygons. This Honda was much easier and less proned to crashing.
