For our ED511 Video we explored the vacuum cleaner and how it has evolved from crappy pump action devices to sleek robotic devices. In the process of doing this we also learn about how other product had evolved and the effects that particular event had on our products such as the space race and invention of new materials.

After doing this task i felt tat i had learnt the following
