Editor's Notes
Since the time ,being on time was and still a big problem,
especially at age of technology, even all the solution existing today but we still behind a decisive solution, today we challeng the technology and we present you a very innovative project.
Ladies and gentelmen my name’s Younes Sennadj student at computer science with business background from indiana University and i will present you Plow with my team mate Meftah.
We’ll start with the general idea, next we explore the market , solution, business model and finnaly the financial study.
Plow is a device aiming to wake up the user only in an intelligent way.
You add the alarm to calendar, sleep comfortably and when it’s time the pillow will vibrate.
Why this project because people are facing many problems :
Working hard and forget to set the alarm on
Don’t wake up on the morning or not listening the alarm
Or your partner hates to listen your alarm each morning
Studying the market we find that many sureys confirm that it happens they don’t hear the alamr for 60% of people and 100 000 get work late because of alarms . ( the number is pretty sure higher in algeria)
What actually exist is classic or smartphone alarm and some mobile apps that push you to take a selfie or a photo but this still not really powerful cause u can just turn off the phone.
For this, we propose you our solution, U can manage your alarms throught a calendar when u can copy days alarms, you can control the app using voice google speech, the app will generate also data about your hour sleeping since we can detect when the user put his head on the pillow we can calculate it. And these data will be very useful to be analysed and give advices to the user about the best way how to sleep, and finnaly if u forget to set the alarm and u’re going to sleep Plow will kindly ask u to set it on.
Then we use open source technologies such as Android and arduino

In our business model we target Workers and students market basically, and as suppliers for electronic component we choose china, why china.
Because the price is very low: Arduino Nano which is very small, a vibrator and bluetooth module form aliexpress with delievery this will cost only 10$ our price we estimate about 20$
So basing on these data and our calculations we estimate breakeven after 26 months.
Let’s resume in one sentence : Plow is smart pillow that answers clients needs with unique functionnalities and prospectives, a reduced cost for one goal help user to sleep more comfortably.
