Signed Title Introduction Provide a brief description of the new idea/device/system, including notes on the expected users, the context of use and the sort of tasks that the future product might be used for. Background Research Summarise existing research that is relevant to your idea. State the limitations of any existing technology and describe specific emerging technologies which you believe could be suitable for your purpose. Make sure you cite these references properly (see References, below). Proposed Design Explain clearly how the proposed design works, use diagrams, graphics, animation if necessary. You do not need to go into a lot of technical detail, but should outline the design concept and the basic parts and operation of the system. If your idea is flexible and could be used in different applications, explain how. You may care to provide a use scenario – a short narrative which explains how a user will interact with your device. Benefits and Risks Explain the benefits and any risks that might be involved with developing the project. (Not only risks and benefits for the user, but for a developer investing in this project). Conclusion Summarise your proposal, explaining how long before such a proposal might become reality, and explaining the importance of doing so. References It is important to provide appropriate references for the materials you have used. Use the IEEE style and try to avoid anonymous, random websites if possible. If you are not sure how to cite references, see http://libguides.murdoch.edu.au/IEEE Appendix (if needed) Gives extra information which is too long to go inside the report.
