Final Project

Pockety (name subject to change): Pocket Productivity Device

Overivew

In current times we need our technological devices for most tasks like looking at our to-do’s, calender or tasks such as timing stuff. Though these are crucial tasks since now we have devices a myriad of functions turning them on for these may lead to hours of distraction particularly caused by social media apps directing the user away from their task. Hence, comes in Pockety a device which gives the user a medium to easily acsess this functionlity and not get distracted as a pocket sized e-ink device made for this. Intially planned as a simple utility device containing apps such as: to-do’s, calender, notes, timer as need rises further functionality will be implemented. Additionally, the final goal for the device, if time permits, is becoming a writer deck: a distractionless writing device.

Motivation

I personally believe that technology ia great though it must be used with intenitonally, meaning one shouldn’t drift from their main purpose when they’re using a device. Thus, I wanted to build a final project like pocekty to have a robust easy to carry device to navigate daily tasks thorugh a distractionless device to keep focus on the tasks at hand. Additionally, I am a person who desires to build his own devices since as long as I remember and thus want to work toward that goal with this final project.
