Abstract
Our team’s goal is to develop an automated cornhole scoring system. After gathering input from a wide range of education levels and ages, the team concluded its usefulness would be appreciated well enough so that the product would be of feasible economic interest. Current solutions to issues associated with cornhole scoring still require the user to perform manual calculations. One could account for the success of this product by comparing its technology with the advent of the credit card. The credit card has optimized the money transaction process, and its popularity explains society’s general interest in an automated scoring system. Accordingly, the technology our team has selected to gauge a cornhole team’s score at any point in the game is exactly that which the credit card uses. This way, no mechanical failure should incur, which would otherwise result in immediate decline in the product’s credibility and demand. Responders to our survey further showed value in aesthetic quality of our product, which shall be resolved by allowing personalization of the product, e.g. adding a favorite sports team or college to the design.
