Problems:
- 3rd wave of coffee is hyped at the moment, coffee trading has become a huge industry and the term "Speciality Coffee" is well known to most of urban dwellers. The issue is, some processes in coffee making (brewing) are not automated. brewing is a delicate procedure, very voltaile to any change, resulting in inconsistencies in the brewing process, let alone as a preparation for brewing competitions where each step while brewing can create the perfect or the worst cup of coffee.
Solutions:
- A device which monitors different values which are relevant to coffee brewing. e.g Humidity of the beans, Coaresness of the Ground beans, temperature and PH levels of the water over time while brewing, brewing speed etc...
Bike2Bike Navigation Idea
My idea is inspired by an example presented during the lecture, where the handlebar of the bike is vibrating when the user needs to turn left or right. I had the idea to connect several bikes to make the navigation of bike tours in bigger groups easier. The application would be excursions for tourist groups or school classes. In the second example, the teacher is using the app to determine the path of the bike tour and to connect all the bikes to it and the students receive light or vibrating signals on their bikes. If a student is too far away from the group the teacher gets a notification.
