Actually you've made the best start. Figure out what characteristics you want the machine to have first, then think about what it looks like or how it accomplishes the task. Because when you start comparing your concept list to the requirements list, a lot of concepts will drop out. They won't meet the requirement for one reason or another. Other concepts you might have to test first to figure out whether or not they will work
This is a hard discipline to learn, particularly for us creative types. We want to go out and build something right away. But it is better to think a little bit first.
