Smartlab - Slime Lab

Measure, mix and concoct icky-sticky goo like a real mad scientist with this one-of-a-kind laboratory kit. The motorized Slime-O-Nator makes your slimy concoctions appear to grow, dance and mutate. Use the slime poker to stretch and bend your slime. Like all Smart Lab toys, this goo-fy kit features projects that teach the science behind the fun. The 16-page lab book includes 20 slippery activities that use common household ingredients.



Role:

Project Manager



Responsibilities:

-Plastic Design

-Plastic Engineering

-Quality Control

-Instruction Design

-Component Sourcing



Challenges:

-Non Newtonian fluid. If it's got Newton in the name it's probably hard. I created a device that sent a shockwave through the non newtonian fluid to make it “dance.”

-This product was COG’s (cost of goods) challenged. I created a vacuum tray bubble that reduced the mess for the user, but also saved a significant amount of plastic.
