How to use the Solarball

                
               The solarball functions very simple and easily. It's a fully functional design that takes every little detail of the environment into consideration. The form, material choice, and the way it's constructed all have the same pupose: water purification. This design was created by the need to help people around the world who lack access to clean drinking water.

 This device uses the process of evaporation to purify water. It combines efficiency, and a certain design to create a compact personal unit. It has an opening and locking system to efficiently clean and change the water, this helps to keep the process simple and easy to use. It also has a gutter, to capture and release the contaminated particles from the original water poured in the solarball. Although its a very basic desighn, there are many small details such as the slight tilt of the Solarball which ensures that the water flows naturally into its' point of dispersion.
               
             The Solarball does this through collecting and storing heat, causing evaporation to occur - which in turn forms condensation on the roof of the ball - which is then collected as drinkable water. All aspects of user function have been taken into consideration: from the refill point (user inserts dirty water), to the dispersion point, to the opening/closing finger indentations and mechanism, to the user symbols, and also the ergonomic handling of the product. The product also takes into consideration communicating to people of different cultures. The colours and symbols used in the design of the Solarball are of neutral ground, and are easily understood by people from all backgrounds/cultures. 

                The Solarball is safe and practical, and is 100% sustainable. The materials used to build the device are all eco friendly and can be recycled. Also, it was designed to be able to survive daily exposure to harsh conditions like the heat from the sun and harsh climate. The materials were also chosen specifically because of food and water safety standards, and is designed for the environment and takes that into consideration.
