Write down the problem statement in $1-2$ sentences. $(4$ points$)$

If someone asks you, "what you need to be solved or what are you working on$?"$ then a short but complete answer to that is the "problem statement". Be sure to choose a problem that is relevant to your daily life and that may have an 'engineering' solution $($e$.$g$.,$ maybe you need more light where you work, a solution to your parking problem, maybe some birds are littering in your patio$).$ Ensure that the solution to the problem is within the scope of a student in this class $($e$.$g$.,$ don't pick 'inflation' or 'world peace'$)$
