Point of View Statement

💡
Audrey needs to have sufficient light because her room isn’t bright enough, but would like to make these changes through eco-friendly solutions.

Minimum Viable Product

💡
Energy-generating turbine that maximizes natural resource collection and energy storage while minimizing energy output and ensuring sufficient electricity that includes lighting in apartment complexes.

The rooftop turbine system includes:

  • Collects rainwater to generate electricity through a turbine system installed on the rooftop of the building
  • While there is no rain, a solar panel is a substitute natural energy collector and energy generator
  • The turbine can transmit electricity to support all flats of the apartment building
  • When energy collection measures at an insufficient level, residents may use an alternative of the product to pedal on it for generating electricity for their homes

Extension of turbine:

  • As electrical vehicles are not ubiquitous and accessible to drivers in all locations due to limited charging stations, a portable carbon filter can be installed to the exhaust of diesel cars to diminish carbon output from fuels
    • The system is operated through solar energy and electricity from the car
