RAINSTREAM
Identify a need of yours and design a solution
Solution
Problem
Rainy days at Stanford mean wet bike seats and therefore soggy pants
Goal
A bike seat that utilizes hydrophobic material, strategically placed ridges, and aerodynamics to stay dry
Being able to bike to class on a rainy day without soaking my pants
hydrophobic material keeps water out
​
ridges start shallow and end up deep
water naturally flows out the back
aerodynamics give an extra boost
Cut
Line
Coat
Ideation
Prototype
Develop a machine that can turn any bike seat into a Rainstream by cutting away materials to form the proven ridge design, line the ridges with durable materials, and coat the bike seat with a hydrophobic solution
Long Term Strategy
