Askar Gabit
Personal Background: Junior student in UNIST
Interests: Esports, physics, android development and startups.
Needs: A need to have quality gap to refresh his energy.
Frustrations: While spending most of his time in library (especially before exams), sometimes he feels tired. Unfortunately, there are no places in library where Askar could do it because sleeping on the table is not really comfortable and going to the dorm is so time-consuming.
Challenges: A lack of places where we he take short naps during midday forces him to sleep on the table. Often, he wakes up from nap not because he felt refreshed but because his legs or arms felt asleep. "I know that it is not good for health but I don't have any choices" says Askar.
Goals: To make useful product/service which will make people's life easier.

Bayan Saidolda
Personal Background: Sophomore student in UNIST
Interests: Game development, artificial intelligence and competitive programming.
Needs: Need a not far place from library where he can take a nap without distracting others.
Frustrations: In his words UNIST library has only two ottomans where you can have a sleep. Usually those places are occupied by other people and you need to check time by time if they free that space.
Challenges: One of the problems while taking midday naps in library is setting alarm clock. You can not ask someone to wake you up after some time and you need to set alarm clock which can be distracting for other people studying there.
Goals: To make useful product/service which will make people's life easier.
