Conceptualized and prototyped BikeSafe, a revolutionary self-installable bike anti-theft device, within a
limited $500 budget. This innovative solution leverages a three-tiered security system:
•Electric shock deterrent: Discourages would-be thieves with a controlled shock mechanism.
•GPS tracking: Provides real-time location monitoring for stolen bikes.
•Integrated alarm and smart app: Alerts owners and broadcasts location upon unauthorized movement.

Led market research and competitor analysis, identifying key consumer trends and target markets. This data-driven approach ensured BikeSafe addressed critical user needs and stood out from existing anti-theft options.

Championed resourcefulness and cost-effectiveness. Engineered a highly compact PCB with 70% reduced footprint, maximizing functionality within budget constraints. Utilized 300+ lines of C++ code and conducted multiple user tests to refine the prototype.

Demonstrated exceptional teamwork and leadership as part of an all-freshman team. Successfully navigated the competition, earning an honorable mention and $500 prize – a testament to BikeSafe's potential and the team's dedication.
