Tech Report Contribution

 Below are the parts of the tech report that I have heavily contributed to, which I am immensely proud of: (reformatted for the blog) Executive Summary This report is a response to a request for a design proposal to improve current process designs. Its purpose is to address the limitations of existing parking systems and propose modifications to enhance them. This report provides background information and context for the proposed solution, which aims to address the problem of real-time parking availability information being inaccessible to drivers. Currently, the lack of such information leads to traffic congestion around shopping malls, as drivers waste time queuing to get into the mall's car park. This report proposes, to CapitaLand, a solution in the form of a super application called ParkingGoWhere. The application features a parking lot booking system and a recommendation system. The booking system allows users to reserve a parking lot slot in advance, which can help to reduc...

After 13 weeks, I can confidently say I have achieved these goals and more. Through the resources provided in the course, including Garr Reynold's Presentation Tips, I have improved my ability to express my ideas coherently and confidently.

I have also learned how to structure my ideas in a clear and concise manner, avoiding confusion and jumbled words. Moving forward, I was able to overcome my small fear of impromptu presentations and public speeches. Through assignments like the Summary Reader Response and Technical Report, I have learned to stay focused on the bigger picture and avoid losing sigh...

Summary Reader Response Draft #4

 The article describes the invention of an innovative face mask, created by Dean Ezekiel,  called "Helloface". The University of Hertfordshire (n.d.) also stated that his partially deaf wife read lips to assist herself in understanding conversations when she could not hear properly. Dean then realized the importance of lips and facial expressions. Thus, he came up with a solution that would solve communication issues where facial recognition is essential, especially in the healthcare industry. Having the distinct feature of transparency as the key focus of "Helloface", the University of Hertfordshire's (n.d.) revealed that the 3-ply structured transparent mask can keep big particles from getting to its users while also allowing others to see their faces. It features a flexible transparent body that makes up 90% of the mask with filters at the bottom, pressing against the chin. Dean also affirmed that the TPE material that makes up the mask is recyclable. From ...
