Universal Design - is the creation of products and environments meant to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possilbe.

 

I came up with the idea of a voice activated spray bottle. Considering almost everyone can speak and is something very basic to do, people will be able to use a spray bottle no matter what.

What I'm going to need to make for my spray bottle:

1. Spray bottle

2. Voice command chip

3. Microphones

4. Speakers

5. Liquid proof box for the chip installed on the bottle

The three bottles on the bottom are ideas I used for the Engineering design process. In the end I decided to go with my last choice because with the back being flat I am able to create the box in the back for my voice command chip to process a command. In the end my bottle turned out great and I am extremely proud of it.

This project was really amazing. Because of this project I learned so many new different commands such as network curve, rebuild, scale 2D, and array (rectangular). I also learned how to problem solve such as the question what can I use or make that almost every single person can do? and the answer I thought of was talking. I then began breaking down my project in steps by what I have to create and how I'm going to do it. Then I researched command chips and how they worked. I learned some chips can hold over a 100 commands but for my project I used a chip that can hold twenty to thirty commands. I also learned that by attaching a certain number of speakers the chip has a higher successor rating of reading what the command is or was. Thus, Begginning my universal design and finishing it with flying colors.
