My team and I conducted a job search for each of our respective majors, finding the similarities, differences, and key moments employers would be looking for in resumes.

The team conducted research on Starship brand food delivery robots, looking for ways to improve the service. We decided to pioneer a new option for delivery, in the form of printing off papers and having them delivered to the intended location -- this would involve a physical print shop where students could be employed, putting together print jobs and office supplies as well.

We looked at grocery stores and did research to determine something we could make to increase excitement about shopping in-person, in a world that got used to online shopping before and during the COVID-19 epidemic. We ended up making an AI-powered map system that could help with filling out shopping lists and making shopping in person more of a fun task than a seeming waste of time.

The team got together to reimagine the fitness tracker, pivoting away from incentive-based designs to make cheating unhelpful, rather than try and discourage cheating some other way. We had in mind a daily challenge system, where app users are asked to go on a walk for a specific purpose.
