State the objective of the project. Explain your product and the why you feel a need to create it. Consider the story you telling about yourself through your product. Discuss the need for and value of the project in the context of a customer’s need, including any relevant background. Also, describe the knowledge and skills acquired in earlier course work that plays major role in the problem formulation and problem solving. Clear and concise description of the project goals is important. (1/2 page)
problem
Identify the requirements, specifications (or standards, rules, or regulations), and limits of the project around the root cause of the problem. Make sure the design requirements must be measurable. If applicable, description of the sustainable design related to the project and solutions would be beneficial. (1/2 page)
Summarize the search and research results of the existing products or technologies with references. Describe their advantages and disadvantages in the perspective of the design requirements of the project. Find the main technological point that serves as the main reason why the proposed project is important and solves the problem.
