Mission Statement Current rear view mirrors systems for bicycles are clumsy, unattractive, poor quality, too expensive, or have a small viewing range. Our solution is to create a low cost alternative that requires no power to operate, and attaches to any helmet.

Concept Selection
1 Improper mirror orientations and alignment. Effect Image may be inverted, out of focus, or the projected image may not line up with target. 2 System may not be structurally sound, Improper natural frequency structural design. may pose stability issues. 3 Exceeding the desired manufacturing cost. System will be unable to be manufactured within desired price range. 4 Unable to adhere to NHTSA standards Prototype unable to be manufactured for retail Cause Lack of optics experience within the team Lack of vibration experience within the team Cost of materials to build system Strict standards conflicting with stability needs 3 3 Importance Risk Item Severity ID Likelihood Risk Assessment Action to Minimize Risk Owner 9 Research optics, determine faculty and other experts who can assist with optical design.
