    My product’s business plan is to create an open-source project, without applying for a patent.This device is intended solely as an educational tool rather than for commercialization.

  • Target Audience:Primarily designed for elementary and middle school students, particularly younger students (Grades 1–3).
  • Usage Scenarios: Ideal for classroom teaching, extracurricular activities, and other educational settings. The device, acting as a "weather broadcaster," integrates technology with nature, emotions, and cultural awareness.
  • Educational Objectives:Help students understand the connection between weather phenomena and daily life.Inspire curiosity about natural sciences and technology in young students.Develop hands-on skills and creativity through interactive learning experiences.
  • 1.3 Future Opportunities

  • Expanded Application Scenarios: Beyond showing weather changes, additional functionalities can be developed, such as air quality monitoring and real-time feedback on temperature and humidity changes. These features could make the weather broadcaster more versatile and comprehensive.
  • Integration of Cultural Elements: By incorporating aspects of Chinese traditional culture, such as poetry or folk tales related to weather, the device can become more than just a tool—it can serve as a culturally rich and emotionally engaging companion.
