Preliminary Prototype

 



We found the design of the fly swatter to be uncomfortable and unattractive. The main problems that we wanted to solve were the unsubstantial handle, the pliable shaft, the shape of the head, and a way  to dispose of the fly. We changed the handle to a solid foam-covered piece and we changed the shaft so that it wasn’t as easily bent. We also modified the shape of the head, making it a more interesting and less predictable shape. Lastly, we added a frame that flips up to curve the fly swatter into a scoop for picking up and disposing of flies
