-During the initial phase of the project, we had to make two important decisions that affected further work. We had to decide whether we want to use QR codes or NFC, and if we want to create a web app or a mobile app. In order to make a decision we analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of both approaches. The fidings are presented in the Tables {{ref>tabelqr}}, {{ref>tabelnfc}}, {{ref>tablenwebapp}} & {{ref>tableapp}} below.+During the initial phase of the project, we had to make two important decisions that affected further work.

-In order to make the stress and strain simulations, we need to first look at what materials would be most suited for the design.

-This way the three parts can be produced by press forming. Press forming is a production method that works well together with aluminium. A material which is suited for this product for its properties and price. In GRANTA Edupack there’s a few tools in order to pick out which material is most suited. For our material, it’s important that it has a high tensile strength in order to resist impact from people trying to destroy the product since it’s located in a public space. If we put all the different materials in a graph with density on the x-axis (since we want to make the product as light as possible) and tensile strength on the y-axis. We get a result which can be seen in figure {{ref>graph}}.+This way the three parts can be produced by press forming. Press forming is a production method that works well together with aluminium.

-For the storm simulation there had to be an approximation of how much force a heavy wind will apply to our screen. According to a research done by Kroftman (ref) at a wind speed of 115 km/h (classified as a heavy storm) there’s a pressure of 640 N/m2.

-After critically looking at the simulations, there's been a conclusion that the simulation hasn't been fully accurate for the real life situation. In figure {{ref>stormstress}} a simulation has been made where it's been assumed that the screen is made from aluminum and thus it's contributing to the overall strength of the structure. This is not accurate since the screen is made of a blend of materials, including plastics and ceramics. Furthermore, the screen is not part of the aluminum structure, it's only been joined using screws. For this reason a second simulation has been done which will more accurately represent real life. These simulations can be seen in figure {{ref>stormstress2}} (stress), figure {{ref>stormdisplacement2}} (displacement) and figure {{ref>stormstrain2}} (strain).+After critically looking at the simulations, there's been a conclusion that the simulation hasn't been fully accurate for the real life situation.

-In Figure {{ref>packaging}} there is a packaging solution presented. The packaging is form fitted which means it's easy to apply and remove the packaging by hand. The screen will be transported in a truck and will be upright in the cargo. After placing the screen in the public space, the packaging will be removed by hand and be placed back in the truck. These packaging components will then be reused for new screens who are awaiting transport. After the packaging part is not fit for use anymore, it can be thrown away and it will be degraded by nature.+In Figure {{ref>packaging}} the packaging solution is presented.

-The packaging is made from mycelium, a material that is produced from agricultural waste and mushrooms/fungi. The agricultural waste will be mixed together with spores of a certain kind of mushroom (together with a few extra nutrients), this mixture will then be used to fill up a mold in the desired shape. Depending on the strain of mushroom and the size of the product, the hyphe (fungi roots) will take about 1-4 weeks to grow throughout the mold. After the mold is filled all the way the product will be taken out and the product will be dried at about 60-80 degrees. This will dry out the moisture and kill the fungi, only leaving the root system and agricultural waste. This means the product is fully bio-producable and biodegradable since it only consists of natural components.

This can be done by choosing a different type of coating, material or way of protecting the casing. Regarding the design, the material choice can be optimized.
