Final Presentation
I still cannot figure out why but when the video was uploaded to Youtube no matter what I tried I either had audio of video issues.
So I have a video link and an audio link:

Example of a Head-Up Display Placed in a Car Windshield
A windshield is the perfect way to implement a HUD into a car since the driver needs to be aware of any obstacles or hazards on the road. I used Adobe Photoshop to add an example of what information a HUD could communicate back to a driver.
-Vehicle information
-Road hazards
-GPS
-Traffic information
All of this could be viewed free of distraction, without taking your eyes off the road.
Heads up Display Analysis
We will be analyzing the functionality of incorporating Heads-up Displays in aircraft and automobiles. I believe that the idea can bring many benefits and improve safety in commercial or public vehicles.
Internet Marketing Tips
While surfing the web for entrepreneur and business articles I came across a page talking about the best internet marketing tips. They recommended blogs as a way to interact with clients, add content to your website, and expand your visibility to search engines. It looks like they also used wordpress.com to create their site. I think the paid version may come in handy later down the road to show off work and use as a type of portfolio.
Life Expectancy Chart
I always find making charts and graphs in Microsoft Excel difficult, I do not know why but I always run into some problem. Once the data is entered it is nice to be able to view different charts to see what looks good and best conveys whatever message you are trying to get across.
My instructional video
This is the first instructional video I have ever made. It shows the viewer how to build a skateboard. I found that the most difficult process in creating this instructional video was trying to sound natural when recording your voice. I believe that recording each sound file individually made this more difficult to achieve and I am sure I could learn a thing or two if I found some voice recording tips and advice on youtube. I will have to do some research before my next video.
