2. Problem/Mission Statement
Many Americans have lost their fingers through accidents or war and now have trouble holding coffee mugs

3. The Struggle of Cripples
90% of cripples missing a finger or more spill coffee on their shirts at least once a week
47% of cripples said they simply stopped drinking coffee because of difficulties with their mugs
A shocking 3,000,000 cripples had to get surgery for burnt chest syndrome, a deadly condition wrought on by frequent exposure to hot liquids

5. Real Problems Gripping a coffee mug
Multitasking whilst drinking coffee

6. What Can We Do?
Mugs for the Mutilated can make any handicapped individual grip a mug with one hand as long as they have one finger
Our new innovative design will free up the other hand of any cripple, making their lives more efficient and easy

12. Our Design Prototype
The design our team of engineers has developed is a mug with a hole for a finger curved allowing for grip with just one finger
Even people without disabilities can use them, would still be marketable to all consumers

13. Issues and Resolutions
Problem
Solution
Different size fingers and fingers missing
Spinning out of hand
Hot coffee burning hand or finger
Custom S,M,L hole sizes as well as custom to which finger utilized
If there is much trouble with spinning, lip can be added to rim of mug
Mug is made of UHTC

14. What is UHTC? Unlicensed Home Toilet Cleaner
Ultimate Haitian Track Competition
Unlimited Hairless Tiger Cubs
Underwater Highway To Chicago

15. Gotcha! UHTC stands for Ultra High Temperature Ceramic
These ceramics are used by NASA to resist the heat of their engines
Can resist temperatures of up to 2000 degrees Celsius

16. Prototype
Our engineers have put together a clay prototype that you can see here representing what the final product will look like
Finished product will be lighter and more aesthetic

17. Conclusion
There were many difficulties in making this design such as choosing between many great ideas
This design could really make in impact on peoples lives to help them live more comfortably
