PROTOTYPE DEMO
IN THE END:
Risks and challenges
1. Manufacturing problems – We already received the production prototype from our manufacturers, but mass-production can require a lot of expensive trial and error, with the cost of materials and availability of essential tools changing regularly. This is why we've built in a large margin for error into our Kickstarter goal, and also why we have signed contracts with seven separate manufacturers who can deliver at the promised price even in difficult circumstances. We have also booked a flight to Guangzhou to supervise all manufacturer and mass-production process.
2. Design flaws – While we have gone to every effort to predict how ROLLOVA will work in real life, the reality is, we're Kickstarting this because Rollova is a new species that you never been seen before. That means that unpredictable problems with the design will likely come up. There is a risk, that one of these could be problematic, however, by using the most advanced computer-aided design(CAD) and experts in different fields, we've minimized this risk to the level than any company can. We've worked through many issues before and don't plan on stopping if we hit a road bump. We will always keep you updated on new developments.
3. Illness/injury/death – Unlikely, but this is a small team, and it's always possible that something could happen to one of us. For instance, Rollova is a compact product in rigid form. If someone swallows this product, that could be extremely harmful!) That said, we have a team precisely so create strength beyond what any one of us could create. In the event of something getting in the way of one us completing the project, we are all committed to pulling together, taking up the slack, and ensuring this project gets done.
