The Skittle Poppers Prototype

My company, Skittle Poppers, invented a party popper using different types of materials.

First we tested different types of parts to see which one is the best.  For example: we used the plastic cup instead of the paper cup. We tested both of these materials to see which one would shoot out the confetti further away. We then figured out that the plastic cup was better than the paper cup.

Next we fixed some of the updated options that we were going to use.  We changed the small plastic cup to a bigger cup, we changed the confetti into a mix of things, we changed the striker into a whiteboard marker, and we changed the elastic band into a thick band.  The striker was the best option because it was strong.

Lastly, we tested the prototype twice to see if there were any problems or there was too much confetti.  For example: We had a problem with the fuzz balls because the fuzz balls were too heavy and too big. This prototype worked and it was effectively strong.

I learned a lot about how to design a party popper and it's needs. My company, Skittle Poppers, found out all the parts were effectively strong.
