Hi Kenneth,
ReplyDeleteGood organisation and flow as the summary allows me to know the name of the company and the features of the products. However, there are some issues that include:
1. Language Usage
Could use “and” instead of “, as well as” for the sentence “product recommendation in retail, as well as authenticating a user based on location”
Spelling error “…they battery life”
2. Content
Name of product is not known throughout the summary (which beacon is your product; proximity beacon, proximity tag, location beacon or UWB beacon)
Could summarize on the built-in sensors (Do not need to state all the types of sensor in since it’s a summary)
Regards,
Haziq and Roy
