Description of Invention

Die Casty is a mobile app designed to unite the diecast collector community, providing a dedicated platform for sharing collections, accessing model information, and connecting with fellow enthusiasts. Key issues, such as the lack of a unified space and chaotic general discussions, were addressed by offering topic-specific forums and structured engagement. The app includes features like user profiles, a diecast model database, event listings, and price tracking tools. A high-fidelity prototype was developed, receiving positive feedback from users. Die Casty enhances community interaction, caters to collectors of all levels, and serves as a comprehensive resource for diecast enthusiasts.
