Bad design... booooo...

pastedGraphic.pdf 
Badly Designed Product:
Automatic door(both sliding and opening)
Sliding:
The automatic door is a bad design as it does not always open, even when you are standing right in front of it. Furthermore, the sensor does not sense that there is a person in between the doors and will proceed to shut the doors, which can lead to accidents.

Flinging Open:
The door does not have stickers or signs to tell you which way the door is going to open or it may have signs but are too small for a person to read them before it(door) crashes into them.

Lolz

  1. Problem solved.
    (Swinging)
    Post stickers or make a "alarm" to alert the person that the door is flinging open.
    (Sliding)
    Make sensors below the ground underneath the door to prevent the doors from closing in on the person.
