Presentation review
Overall, I feel my group and I did an awesome job on our presentation. The practice run we did before the final presentation really helped pin down a good flow to our project and was very insightful. We were well rehearsed as we spoke, despite all three of us being very nervous. The judges were fairly impressed with our product, and all of their questions asked if we were marketing our product (which was a very good sign - they didn't seem to have any criticism and were impressed with how capable we seemed to be.) Coincidentally, one of the judges also worked at Hardwire and was amused by the connection we had to the company/one of his coworkers, and also suggested different marketing options if we were to mass produce our product.
The only flaw in our presentation was that our infomercial, which my group and I were most excited about, for some reason would not play during our presentation. We were also at a loss as to how to rectify the situation, which created an awkward pause during the presentation. After a moment of trying to get the video to play, we decided to just keep going and move on from the blunder.
