To mark the end of this course, we were asked to do a project of design thinking to design and create solutions to ease our daily life problems.  In a group of 5, we managed to design a smart water bottle named Aqua Intelligent Bottle to deal with the body hydration problem. Here is our report on the project.

This paper describes an application embedded smart water bottle named Aqua Intelligent Bottle which provide solutions to common problems faced by public to keep themselves hydrated.  Background of users and problems faced by users are also discussed to give a better understanding on the real problems faced by different individuals. Analysis of user study is presented in this paper to justify the problems surrounding the needs of Aqua Intelligent Bottle. Results of analysis shows that the features in Aqua Intelligent Bottle address and accommodate most of the common problems faced by the users in their daily lives.
