This is the design that our group made for the Shopping Cart Design Challenge. It was created using www.buildwithchrome.com, an app made by Google and Lego. It was very easy and fun to use, and it made a simple 3D model for our design.
Our goal for this cart was to make a "Shopping cart for the 21st century," that is both easy to use and functional. We included 4 battery powered wheels for ease of access and buttons on the handle to control the turns. The pack in front is a cheap, compact battery to power the motors, which would be able to be plugged into a wall to recharge. We also included a screen on the front for directions around the store. You would be able to search for a food, or look up recipes and nutritional values on the cart. There would be a map aisles, showing where food is and how much it costs. This screen uses an antenna on the front communicate its location for navigation and in case they get stolen.
Pros and Cons
+ Very easy to use because of powered wheels and navigation
- Probably very expensive
+ Easily adaptable for any disabled customers
- Target of theft because of expensive equipment
+ Recipes and Nutritional Values help keep user health conscientious
- Not as environmentally friendly as a normal cart
