Summarize this Each Pa-Bi-Board prototype measures 4-inches in width and 5.5-inches in height, and about 0.5-centimeters in thickness. The entire prototype is made of recyclable paper, with the most common type being inked bond papers. For each seed paper, there are an estimated 10 papers, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 5-grams of coffee powder to produce its brown pulp. The paper pulp was mixed in a plastic container filled with around 2-Liters of tap water, to be later filtered by the nylon mesh of the mold and deckle. For each seed paper, there would also be 10 seeds integrated or embedded to its surface in an evenly spaced manner. The cardboard fluting consists of 8-10 rolls of seed paper measuring 2-inches in width and 5.5-inches in height, with 0.3-centimeter diameter, to be placed longitudinally in between two seed papers. The fluting is coated with a moderate amount of a multi-purpose glue, around 5-grams, before placing the seed paper sheet on top. The surface of the seed…
