From Prelims 1 to Prelims 2 to Semifinals

From Prelims 1, we learnt our lessons and added more slides into our powerpoint slide to eliminate the unclarity of our products, Such us a comparison chart on the current market products against our product.


Finally, we passed our Prelims 2, and proceeded to Semi-Finals.

Before Semi-Finals, we went to many different place to scout for our materials, as seen below, and triedo n many different prototype. After 2 futile tries, we finally managed to create a prototype that serves the purpose of our invention.

Below, is a video on how our prototype would work.
