Decision Making: Criteria Table To Evaluate Alternative Design of Device A

The document describes two criteria tables used to evaluate alternative designs for two devices. The first table compares two alternatives for device A across 11 criteria such as autonomous navigation, speed, and safety. Alternative 1 received a higher cumulative score of 76 compared to 61 for Alternative 2. The second table evaluates two designs for device B based on 7 criteria like vertical distance covered, mass, and aesthetics. For this table, Alternative 2 scored higher than Alternative 1 with a total of 49 versus 42, and was thus selected as the proposed design.
