EXPLORATION & RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES<br />
1. Design Exploration<br />
a. How can we change the way we design rooftops to break up<br />
raindrops before they begin their path towards the ground?<br />
2. Experimentation<br />
a. How do water droplets stick to materials?<br />
b. How much can evaporation be increased by breaking and<br />
splashing raindrops?<br />
3. Material/Product Development<br />
a. What materials cause water droplets to stick to them?<br />
b. Is there a new type of canopy material which could be developed to<br />
divide/aerate raindrops?<br />
