Mission Statement Our mission statement is to make efficient use of our time and effort towards building a practical device that allows one to safely walk on water.

Problem/Objective Walking on water has been a desire for a plethora of humans for a very long.. The ability to walk on water should be something that everyone can accomplish in a safe and inexpensive manner. Our goal is to achieve this while making a functional and marketable product that turns profit.

Stakeholder needs Not all stakeholders could be evaluated for this project ● The stakeholders wanted something that was reasonable and affordable ● 18-25 year olds seemed most interested ● Safety is a big concern ● Needs a buoyant material that is comfortable but firm at same time ● Needs to be able to place one foot in front of the other continuously in water ● (by definition of walking) *Stakeholder data gathered from online surveys and in-person interviews

Constraints and requirements No use of batteries or liquid fuel ● It couldn’t touch the bottom or sides of the pool ● Materials within an $80 price range in order to make money on the suggested ● $120 retail from survey Be easy to operate and mount ● Material cannot break apart in the water ● Material restrictions placed by natatorium ●

Design Specs Set the price of materials at close to 50$ ● The target audience became 18-25 year olds ● Determined a “safe” weight range of 120-180 lbs ● Made mostly of polystyrene ●

Systems and Subsystems The Shoes ● Flotation ○ Polystyrene ■ Balance ○ The string that attached the two shoes ■ The string that the user holds ■ The wide base of the shoe ■

Bill of Materials Approximate Total Cost: $63 All materials purchased at Home Depot Approximate Bill of Materials: 12ft $18.00 $9.00 10ftx6ftx1.5in $12.00 $24.00

Summary and Conclusions Fixed the issue of the shoes drifting apart by the final test ● Fixed the issue of balance from the front and back with potential of adding ● more support before production At the end of the process we have created: ● A prototype flotation device capable of handling a passenger ○ A prototype that can be handled by the target audience ○ A prototype that has the potential to “walk on water” ○ At the end of the process we learned: ● Balance is a very important component to maneuverability ○ The more prototypes and testing opportunities, the more functional design ○ The physical characteristics of the consumer are an integral part to the design ○
