S.M.A.R.T Objectives

Our goals are simple and listed as: How a machine can help with these Goals

S.M.A.R.T. Objectives	Machine Project
Decrease average time it takes to open jar by 70%	A machine can exert forces stronger than the average person even at a small size
Simplify process so that even a 10-year-old can get the jar open	A simple system with maybe 2 buttons or less will make the machine easy to understand
Reduce strain intensity of consumers from opening jars by 90%	Reducing strain is the most important factor to alleviate since it’s the cause of frustration
