Design Requirements

Your design should be the size of your hand or laptop.

Your prototype should include a bioplastic you experimented in class: mycelium, potato starch, or gelatin.

Your design should be a reinterpretation of a man-made object you find outside in your backyard.

Mass producing the product

We can mass produce the box by cutting stencils out of bioplastic sheets.

We can mass produce the bubblewrap by adding pressurized air into uncured bioplastic sheets.

We can mass produce the cat by using injection molding on the two-piece cat molds.

We created a phone case without any plastic

Our opportunity is to give people a way to keep there phone safe and be helpful to our environment at the same time

Around 400 million pounds of plastic are used to make phone cases each year

Midterm Feedback 

For the Midterm project we created a Clementine peel mixture

We later then decided to change our bio material

Our new bio material uses Orange peels instead

Some of the steps we took that led us to our finale product

We explored a couple of Ideas like the phone case, a computer keys cover and shoe soles

We took these Ideas to paper sketched out what they might look like and which one best suited our

Process

Precedents

What inspired us to this business almost everyone you know has on iPhone leaving us with a pretty big market to work with. That attracted us to go into this market so we can be open and to try to give us a chance to make a very good product.

story board

The first step is our product it to gather materials we need number 1 gather orange peels. We can go to restaurants and gather peoples thrash. Number 2 water, glycerol and gelatin. number 3 mix all together and heat up. Number 4 get all bubbles out and pour into mold.

Orange-a-case!/advertisement

We decided to invent a case that incorporated features found in a normal case but instead of using plastic we used a Bio material.

Business Proposal

Target market

the targeted marked for our project is people who like the save waste and people who like to keep there phone safe.

our product gives people both of those options. Almost every one you know have a phone that what interested us into doing this project as we could help millions of people save waste

next step/reflection

Given is we had more time I thing our group would like to spend some more time on the materials and package aspect of our project. Like having a reusable or an environmental friendly package to go along with our project

Final

This is what the phone case looks in the bio Material

This is the final product with a phone in it

We decided to invent a case that incorporated features found in a normal case but instead of using plastic we used a biomaterial.

This project focuses on bringing light to the plastic problem, and since fidget toys have been such a wide phenomenon we are trying to bring a more eco-friendly fidget that also encourages more exploration and creativity for young kids who are getting a feel for the world.
