debugging artificial nails non-disclosure agreement (intellectual property law)We are an early-stage startup focused on developing wearable technologies for beauty. Our first product is internally referred to as ePolish. ePolish are artificial nails that can instantly change colour from a mobile app by bringing the ePolish into proximity to the phone. We want to incorporate into our team students who will focus on iterating on our current hardware prototype to create an MVP and testing it through the first iteration of our mobile app.
Goals:
- Integrated circuit design to fit the system specifications for the nail-wearable device.
- Prototype development and testing.
- Ensuring interconnectivity by reviewing the hardware/software interaction.
* NDA's and waivers will be required from the interns undertaking this project.
Literature review to understand the state of the art in this field.
Hardware development of the physical device.
Potential iteration of the mobile app to ensure hardware/software connectivity.
Testing and debugging device.
Final testing and project report.
We will start with a kick-off to meet with the students, set goals, and make them feel part of our startup. We will schedule weekly team meetings to divide and review specific tasks and will be available throughout to provide additional support.
