Red Dot Alarming

This would be the name of my company if I had to think of it in such short timing. As we all know, finding the right name is the most difficult. What you see here, may look like a camera, but it is really an alarm system/camera. I never understood why having an alarm system go off after an intruder has already broken into your house. This is why I had to think outside of the box. This alarm system is only for when your whole family is home and no one will be entering or exiting. You are able to turn the alarm on through an application and off at a certain timing automatically. What makes my idea so special, is that when an intruder comes within a certain distance from your property depending on the size of your property, there will be a laser beam that shoots directly straight onto their body. This one camera can shoot up to 2-3 laser beams per unit depending on how many intruders. For example 1 person = 1 laser, 2 people = 2, 3 people =3. Now, this laser beam should be enough to scare the intruder off right away since it is pointed at the center of their body. But if they dare to move a certain distance closer after getting contacted with the laser beam, the alarm will automatically go off before they even reach your house. This alarm system will notice and detect only human motion, it will know by the size difference. After an intruder gets hit with a laser beam, the infrared laser beam will follow their motion on their body showing the intruder not to mess around. As I said before, if they decide to proceed towards your household for example 5 more yards, the alarm will go off to let you and your family know to be ready, before anything goes wrong. Now, who would want to break into a house after the alarm has already gone off????   

Reviewing the Problem

I had a conversation with my girlfriend, and it looked like this has become more of a problem than I believed it to be. Not being able to sleep at night is not just an inconvenience. She also happened to miss her early morning classes due to lack of sleep or oversleeping when she was taking Nyquil to help her fall asleep. She has tried many things to help her get past this problem but nothing seemed to work. She did happen to mention that cuddling with a pillow at night did help her feel as if someone was with her. Since cheating on me would probably be the best solution, I felt it would just be best if I just didn’t tell her that! She made me feel confident that my pillow replica idea may be a solution to help the problem, but not FIX the problem. That will just need time. When I showed her my design, she laughed at it and thought it was cute. Overall, this is a problem that needs a solution to help the issue, I believe that fixing the problem will just take time. Hopefully, my design creation can help! WISH ME LUCK

Problem Solving!

My girlfriend & I have a long-distance relationship. She goes away to college while I am still at home. When she comes home she sleeps at my house almost every single day until she has to go back to college. She has very bad separation anxiety, especially when trying to go to sleep without me. Not being able to sleep every night is a serious problem, not just an inconvenience, this needs to be fixed. Other than just telling me every single night that she cannot fall asleep without me, and I am unable to always be there for her. She has been trying to take Advil pm to try and fall asleep at night, but relying on taking medical pills is a terrible alternative. She has also tried therapy, but that has not seemed to work for her as well. Sleep deprivation is a very big problem, not just an inconvenience. So I had to come up with a solution. I designed a Pillow that looks like me for when she goes to sleep at night, she can always hug me & I can always be there for her. Since I personally created this, I hope she can feel like I am actually with her. I hope this helps her!

This is my Tinkercad Design of Squirtle!

I really struggled with drawing the eyes and the mouth inside of the face. Overall this project took me around 4 hours… Although I did not end up keeping the smile and the eye edits, it took me most of the time to try and figure out how to do it, which didn’t end up working out. This was a great learning experience for future projects to come!

My Special Toy Drawing!

For anyone who has never played pokemon before, This is a Squirtle!

The reason why this toy is very important to me is that when I was younger, pokemon was my favorite game to play. Not only that, My grandpa used to come over to my house all the time with pokemon cards & IT WOULD MAKE MY DAY. My mom would also love to buy me and my brother pokemon cards and games because she knew how excited it made us. Pokemon brings back memories of when I was a child & memories of my family who just loved to see me happy!

My favorite pokemon was Squirtle OBVIOUSLY!

Sorry, not the greatest artist 🙂

Innovation / Innovation Theater

Innovation can be described as saving energy/ time or making things more convenient for people, and solving the main issues within society. When large companies focus too much on trying to generate new ideas, they may go off track and not create something innovative or solve any problems. This can lead to other issues such as not finding enough demand from consumers which would make them operate at a loss. This is called Innovation Theater. EVERYONE WANTS TO BE AN INNOVATOR, BUT IT TAKES A LOT MORE THAN JUST A GREAT IDEA. YOU NEED TO WANT THIS CHANGE WITH A PURPOSE, MEANING SOMETHING BEYOND JUST MONEY!
