 Compared to a bigger bag, our invention is less bulky.  Cheaper to buy compared to a bigger bag.

 At first, we wanted to use velcro to attach our invention to the school bag but then velcro is too weak.  There was a limited number of people we know to help in our survey.

 Interview  Survey

 This is a video of us interviewing a fellow student after letting him test our invention for a day.

 Most people hate trying to stuff things into their bag.  People tend to lose things when they carry their books and files in their hands.  Therefore, our product would be useful to these people.
