Presentation and Justification
Our 4 Problems:
- Not being able to see your phone in the bright sun even though you turn up your brightness. For example using it at the beach or at any outdoor activity. Anyone who has a mobile phone or electronic device that uses it outdoors can find this to be a problem.
- Losing your pencil constantly even though you know exactly where you left it. Or even worse when it was just on your desk and you look away for one second and look back and its gone. Students in school or anyone who writes daily would have a problem like this.
- Any constant problem you have with glasses, such as rain on them or being uncomfortable. Anyone who wears glasses knows the problems.
- Unable to properly organize pots in pans in a kitchen cabinet due to different sizes, shapes, and depths. People who cook such as chefs would have a problem like this.
Existing Solutions:
- There are no known actual inventions that help to se your phone screen in the sun. The only thing that helps is adjusting the brightness on your phone.
- The only existing solutions to losing your pencil is to have a pencil case or have a cup full of pencils. These are not efficient or modern solutions.
- For problems with your glasses no real solutions are created for rain or comfortableness.
- Solutions for unorganized cabinets are hangers for pots and pans, Drawers that can slide in and out, and dividers for kitchen appliances.

Summary:
I am really excited to be starting the Capstone project. I am also glad that my partner is a close friend so it is very easy to work together. We have already encountered so some problems as the project is very time consuming and it was difficult for Mihail and I to come up with a problem that we really found interesting. To come up with problems, that we have in everyday life, we just thought of our everyday routines and tried to find problems within them. It was also very difficult to try not to think about solution and to only think of problems. Finally we came to agreement of glasses getting wet to be our problem. After that we complete very thing else very easily and the only think that we need to improve on is making sure our comp. book is up to date.
