Concept Map

Most glass and screens for phones are very useful but expensive to fix after it breaks or cracks. Negatives to this are that the glass can be dangerous and the screen can be useless causing many problems. A solution to this would be sapphire and/or gorilla glass already implemented into the screens and glass. The buyers would have and option to choose which type of glass they would like that could alter the phone towards where it will not break. Gorilla and sapphire glass both have positives and negatives but are very useful to reduce the costs of  fixing, replacing or injury. Broken items are aesthetically unpleasing especially when it is an everyday object, however the already implemented sapphire and/or gorilla glass will make it so that there will not be any aesthetic problems or injury problems due to broken glass. This will not dramatically increase the cost of the object you are buying but it will have a slight significant change to make sure that it will be useful for people in many circumstances.

Problems in the World


Problem: Right-Handed desks
Left-Handed desk/Desk not favoring Right or Left-Handed People

  • Most desks are made for people that are right-handed which can turn out to be very uncomfortable for left-handed people




 Problem: Broken Glass and Broken Screen
Glass that doesn't break and but still able to see through

  • Ever hate it when the glass or the screen gets broken? Most screens or pieces of glass are very expensive to repair for the size it is



 Problem: Dirty Water
Transport clean water to areas in poverty

  • When we think of drinking water most of us think of the water shown in the right, however places in poverty drink water from places such as the one on the left





Problem: Crosswalks
Traffic lights for crossing roads and security cameras
  • Most cities have traffic lights for crossing roads either on foot, bike or car, however rural areas, areas in poverty and some cities like our own have crosswalks with no light meaning they have to wait for cars to stop or for there to be no cars, often car drivers do not respect people waiting to cross the street and it is also very dangerous considering that car drivers will try to cross before the people walking get to the other side
