Dissemination Plan for Smart Suburi

The initial step is to produce several sets of Smart Suburi and conduct beta testing with members of my badminton team. Based on the feedback and reactions obtained from this testing, we will move on to the next phase of the plan.

Future Possibilities

Expansion to Other Sports: Adapt Smart Suburi technology for use in other sports such as tennis, golf, or baseball.

License

Smart Suburi by Hajime Ito is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International

The Creative Commons license CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 is the license I have chosen for my final project.

Here are the reasons why using this license during the development phase is particularly beneficial:

• Protected Usage:

The ND (No Derivatives) clause prevents others from modifying and distributing altered versions of SmartSuburi. This helps avoid the spread of incomplete or inappropriate modifications by others.

• Consistency Maintenance:

Inappropriate modifications during the development phase can compromise the original vision and objectives of the project. The ND clause ensures that the project progresses in the intended direction, maintaining consistency.

• Reliability Assurance:

Unauthorized modifications can confuse users about which version is official, leading to potential misunderstandings. The NC (Non-Commercial) clause helps prevent commercial use, maintaining the reliability of the official source.

• Flexibility for Future Changes:

As development progresses, you can change the license conditions. Once the project is completed, you may consider switching to a more permissive license, but during development, it is wise to enhance protection with the current license. By doing this, you ensure that the development of SmartSuburi proceeds smoothly and that the project maintains its integrity and reliability until it reaches completion.
