Product Name: Surf-Clean
Target Consumer
We designed this product aimed at home-owners with large houses, or those who's job it is to clean houses or other indoors areas. This is because our product is designed to make cleaning easier, which frees up time and stress that would have otherwise been used to clean flat, horizontal surfaces. For cleaning companies, their cleaners can simply save time by placing one of our robots down and walking away to worry about another part of the job.

Summary
The reasons we chose certain specifications over others were mainly due to this product being purely based on functionality over every other aspect. Because the device is designed to do a job without being touched, it does not need to look good, be ergonomic, or be light. This fact influenced us the most when listing these specifications. For criteria, we again based all of our choices off of the fact that functionality is most important, so we gave criteria that directly affects how well the product works, such as having the main functional components be replaceable, as well as giving it more automation via sensors for edge detection.
