Kind of sad that a virtual thief can be arrested and punished in the real world.

Final Project Proposal

swin4 — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 11:44:48 +0000

1. The objective of my project is to help incoming students, or anyone who would like to know more about UB’s campus, to learn about the layout, and general knowledge of the campus. This is important, because often times people coming to the campus are dumbfounded by the size and layout of it. Participants will walk away with a better understanding of the campus, but hopefully in a way that isn’t just a guided boring tour.

2. The audience of my project is directed mainly towards college students, more specifically freshmen and transfer students.

3. I will be using campus maps, information pamphlet, and UB’s website to help with this project. Mainly to start I will set up in the most frequently visited areas of campus. I will set up a token system, or guided questionnaire to lead people to the next station. At each station participants will have to perform some puzzle or game to get the token, or next question. Hopefully through getting to these locations and performing the tasks people will learn the campus better.

4. The project will be a scavenger hunt based tour of the UB campus.

What is it? A beltbuckle to replace not only your regular belt buckle, but your every day mp3 player as well.

Product description: a belt buckle with simple interface to play music from. different size hard drives possible.

Who is it for? this product would be useful for anybody who wears jeans, shorts, any pants that require a belt. it would be more popular in the 15-30 age range rather than to the older generations.
