  2. Project Background Composting is a sustainable form of breaking down ● organic waste to lush fertilizer Concept initiated by a student at the Montessori School ● and then funded by Rochester Roots RoboCompostor 1.0 developed most of the hardware ● Lacks testing, key controls, and verification of ○ functionability

  3. Problem Statement Build on the prototype platform to deliver a sound mechanical platform that has ● been thoroughly tested ○ Conduct a plethora of testing on composting time, grinder, and augers Add controls and automation to the mechanical platform ● Deliver a platform that is educational and intuitive ● Deliver a safe device ●

  4. Project Deliverable A fully operable composting platform will be refined ● Will include intuitive controls, intuitive exporting capabilities, visual display of pH, temperature, ○ and humidity readings Data confirming successful operating performance metrics with a composting ● goal of 2 weeks A robust user manual ● All relevant drawings and schematics ●
