Results would show an increase in overall customer satisfaction.Metrics through testing and iteration during project development will show increased visual design quality and ease of use.

impact

My project is an innovative solution, system, and strategic approach toward increasing exploration and discovery. My contribution pushes forward increased awareness in education of the history of technology, design, and innovation.

Prompt

Give Credit Where Its Due

The competitiveness of the U.S. economy depends on technological progress, but recent data suggests that innovation is getting more challenging, and the pace of growth is slowing down.

A significant challenge in business and policy spheres is understanding the environments most conducive to innovation. One way to do that is to look to history. I focus on the golden age of invention: the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when America became the world’s preeminent industrial nation.

BUSINESS GOAL

The business benefit from the software will be the communication and relationship between the customers, users, and those who provide services in education and innovation.

PRODUCT GOAL

The product aims to educate and entertain people by making discovery enjoyable. My goal is to leverage technology and push toward technological progress and economic growth.

Inspiration
