We all love the look good, but sometimes we don't have the time or energy to put in the effort to come up with a new and exciting outfit for each day. I personally love fashion and love dressing to impress but when I'm running late for class I'm forced to throw on sweatpants and a tshirt. That's why I have come up with the Outfit-Picker-Outer.
The Outfit Picker Outer (OPO) is a software designed to help make choosing your outfit for the day easier than ever! By scanning your wardrobe using a camera or smartphone/tablet/etc., your clothes will be stored in the OPO's memory. When you purchase new clothing, you will be able to add it to your accounts memory as you get it. Each users account will be backed up in the cloud so that once they store their clothing in the OPO's memory, it will never be lost and they will always be able to retrieve it. They will also have the option to lock their account and make it private to protect their information if wanted.
Everybody has their own styles and types of fashion that they feel more comfortable in, and the OPO is aware of this. In order to make sure that the OPO can pick out the right outfit for each user, there will be surveys and simple yes or no questions to get a better understanding of how the user dresses. Along with this, the user will be able to tell the OPO what kind of occasion they will need to outfit for (i.e. class, interview, dinner) and it will pick out an outfit that is appropriate attire for whatever event it is needed for.
When I first came up with idea for the OPO, I imagined it being it's own machine. As the idea developed however, I decided it would be a better idea to have it as a software that could run on many different operating systems so that it would be more accessible to more users. The OPO website will also play a large role as it will allow different OPO users to communicate with each other. By having users share their favorite outfits with each other and exchanging ideas people will be able to get even more use out of the software and discover even more fashion trends that they enjoy.
To make this idea reality, I would need a team of workers with many different skills. Obviously somebody would need to write up the code for the software and make it work. I would also need people to create the website and make it possible for the users to interact along with someone to direct the social media aspects of the OPO like the facebook and twitter pages. We will also need to create advertisements to get our product out there and make it known to people because even with a great software that people will love, if people don't know about it then it can never get started!

The OPO and Security
The Outfit-Picker-Outer (OPO) is an outfit generator that stores your wardrobe in it's memory and then creates and outfit for you each morning based on your style tastes and the occasion that you need to outfit for. The user has the option to take quizzes and surveys or even simply clicking "yes" or "no" to an outfit to help the OPO generate outfits that better fit the user's taste.
Security is extremely important to ensure that each user's information is kept safe and cannot be used by someone else. To control who has access to each users account, the user will be able to restrict who has permission to their account or even specific parts of the account. The OPO has many features allowing different users to share their outfits and other parts of their account online with other users. Each user will have the opportunity to update their account security choosing what they want or do not want to be shared online.
Each user will also have the option to create a password that they will need to enter each time they use their OPO account. This will require each user to authorize their information before logging in so that their information can be even more protected. There will also be antivirus software to block viruses from downloading themselves into the OPO service.

The OPO and Operating Systems
The Outfit Picker Outer (OPO) is an outfit generator. It will store your clothing in its memory and then pick out an outfit for you based on your style preferences and where you will be going in this outfit. With multiple options and color schemes, you will never have to spend time stressing about what to wear again.
An operating system is a set of programs containing instructions that work together to coordinate all activities among computer hardware resources. Operating systems perform functions like starting or shutting down a computer, providing interface, managing programs and memory, coordinating tasks, establishing internet connection, and more.
The OPO is a program that will be designed to run on multiple operating systems to make it more accessible to more users. Because computers can all run on different operating systems, the OPO must work with whatever operating system is installed on the users' computer. The OPO is also going to be designed as an application that can be accessed on smart phones allowing more people to share their outfits and connect with other OPO users. Because of this, it will also have to be able to run on phone operating systems as well as computers.
