C: So . Yes .
B: So
B: w we will try to structure this uh meeting with an a with an agenda uh as presented here .
C: B: Um after the opening we will tr get acquainted to each other .
B: See what our roles are in this project .
B: So , um B: We have been provided with uh some uh w technical tools to uh to communicate and to well , learn from each other's plans
B: uh as I can say
B: um so
B: w we will also try to uh to get acquainted to this tools
B: so
B: they are also new to me
B: I don't know whether you worked with them before .
B: Um then we will come to the uh to the to the actual project plan .
B: You all know I hope how it's about uh the uh new r remote control we are going going to design .
A: Mm-hmm .
C: Total .
B: Uh then we will uh discuss
B: uh , well , how it should be
B: and uh wh what uh what our new product should look lite like .
B: And uh well then uh after some twenty five minutes I hope uh we can end this meeting .
B: So . Um
B: basically this is about a uh a new c remote control . Um B: We B: When you design a new product you of uh you of course want it to be original .
B: Be uh B: we want to be distinguished ,
B: mm ?
B: People uh want to uh when they look at the shelf want to think , well that's the product I I need .
B: So it needs to be trendy .
B: I mean trendy is what people want ,
B: so then I w they will buy our product .
B: But then , uh , it also should work uh user friendly
B: and uh otherwise people uh uh well it will not be uh be rated very well in consumer uh articles and like that .
D: B: So ,
B: the general outline of uh new project will be we first uh go through a functional design phase . Um B: You all get uh um certain task uh in this uh in this phase
B: and uh then we will meet again
B: and uh discuss this functional design .
B: And the same holds for the uh ph two phases uh after this , the conceptual design and after that a a more detailed design
B: in which the the final project should get its definite shape .
B: Alright ,
B: but first we will do some uh tool training .
B: In all in front of you uh you see uh the uh notebooks and w uh n note blocks
B: and we have here a a a a white-board .
C: Whitebo
A: Mm-hmm .
B: And um well it should work uh B: I've read it from my uh from some colleague that it should work with some kind of toolbar .
B: I didn't find out yet how it work ,
B: but maybe one of you did , so Um D: Under documents in the shared folder .
D: Okay .
B: Yes .
B: Do Do we have to say something about that ?
B: I I I'm not fully updated about this shared folder uh .
D: Yeah ,
D: I guess we'll have a shared folder uh with documents that we can share .
D: And uh , yeah .
B: Yes well
B: we will then find out ho how it works .
D: Yes .
B: Um . Well ,
B: this seems to me , yes , some computer program
B: but I didn't find it yet .
B: So ,
B: we'll come to that later .
B: So , uh
B: now we will try out the white-board we have here .
B: So ,
B: I would suggest uh D: Each of us is going .
B: Well ,
B: yes ,
B: um we uh we should try to t to draw on it
B: and then well it should be smart some way .
B: I  I'm not really sure how this works , but D: Okay ,
D: shall I start ?
A: Mm . Yeah .
C: Yeah ,
C: you can start it you know .
B: Yes ,
B: a good idea Mael .
A: I think for us it's just like a normal whiteboard ,
A: but they'll be recording what we write down .
D: So ,
D: i
C: No
C: they will record through that .
C: There's a sensor over there
A: Mm . Mm .
C: which is going to record the strokes that you make .
A: But for us it's just like a normal whiteboard .
B: Okay .
C: Yeah .
B: 'Kay .
C: D: But it's A: D: Actually , I think I cannot go with uh B: You you B: D doesn't it work ?
B: Maybe someo
B: Maybe maybe Anna , maybe you can start .
A: Mm-hmm .
D: Yeah .
B: Then he can maybe find out to get his cord right .
A: I have to draw .
B: So um B: L
B: Why don't you draw uh your favourite animal on on th on the white-board .
D: A: M my my favourite animal .
A: Sorry
A: this is all tangled up here .
B: Oh , I see uh A: That's better .

C: Yeah ,
C: uh I think it's fine .
C: I just don't want to carry it off .
C: Man , this wires ,
C: eh ?
C: We need a wireless microphone .
D: C: You know ?
C: Pro specially we should
C: next project we should take l like that .
B: So ,
A: Okay . So .
B: that's the cat .
A: It's not a cat ,

A: Okay .
D: right ?
B: Okay .
C: It'll still not extend ,
C: right ?

A: Okay , there you go .
A: So
A: what favourite characteristics . Uh . Dogs are always friendly and loyal and fun .
A: A horse ?
C: It's a horse .
A: This is why you're the designer .
A: And I'm marketing . B: Yes . Yes , yes this is Yes definitely a horse . Yes .

A: Your turn .
B: So . Let's see .
B: Which animal has not been drawn yet .
B: So
B: you've all drawn land animals ,
B: so why not draw an animal from the water .
A: D: A bird .
D: Okay , in the water .
A:  A: Ah
A: I don't know what that is .
A: It's a bit D: Mm .
B: Mm . A: It's a bit hard to guess . D: Yeah . A: C: So D: Put it colours .
D: Maybe it would help us .
A: Yeah .
B: Yes .
C: The cat is going to eat the fish or the rat ?
D: With different pen widths .
B: A: Mm-hmm
B: So A: Oh ,
A: it's a shark now .

B: B: Why not . A swordfish .
D: You have some in in Australia ,
A: D: right ?
B: A: Swordfish .
D: Yeah .
A: Um , maybe .
D: I dunno .
A: I've never seen one , no .
D: Oh well .
D: Yeah .
B: I hope it still works .
D: Perfect .
B: So D: So
D: I dunno if we need to spend time on that , actually D: But uh C: You should go for the next one it seems to me .
B: W Well ,
B: this uh this tool seemed to work .
D: Yeah , exactly , yeah .
A: Mm-hmm .
B: Let's continue to uh to the real stuff .
D: Wow .
B: Um our project uh finance uh thing .
B: Uh when we are and when w you are uh going to design w uh we must keep in mind that the selling price of the product uh will be about twenty five Euros ,
B: so when designing a project uh I also look at you uh Mael , keep in mind uh uh uh People uh
C: Twenty four .
D: Yeah .
B: want to get the feeling this is a twenty five Euro project uh pr um
D: Per remote control ,
B: product .
D: yeah ?
A: Mm .
D: Per project .
B: Yes .
B: Okay . Um
D: B: more interesting for our company of course , p uh profit aim , about fifty million Euro .
B: So
B: we have to sell uh quite a lot of this uh um things .
B: Uh we will try to uh
B: to get at a international market
B: uh so um
B: it will be I think mainly Europe and uh Northern America ,
C: Ah yeah , the sale man , four million .
B: maybe some uh Asian countries .
B: Um also important for you all is um the the product uh production cost must be maximal uh twelve uh twelve Euro and fifty cents .
D: So it's half of the selling price , if I am good in mathematics .
B: Yes , of course .
B: Uh um I mean
B: we still have to uh to make a profit ,
B: huh ?
D: Of course .
C: They have to sell at least four million to make a profit A: Mm . B: You all have to be paid .
A: Mm .
C: Ah
B: Excuse me ?
C: we have to make C: we have to sell at least four million to make our own profit . Fifty mill
D: Oh
D: you're g very good in mathematics .
A: Yes . C: B: Yes , indeed .
C: D: Four million .
B: So uh well
D: Yeah .
B: I think w when we are working on the international market , uh in principle it has enough customers
B: uh so
B: when we have a good product we uh we could uh meet this this aim , I think .
B: So ,
B: that about finance .
B: And uh now just let have some discussion about what is a good remote control
B: and uh well keep in mind this this first point , it has to be original ,
B: it has to be trendy ,
B: it has to be user friendly .
B: Um , maybe someone can mention some additional uh prerequisites for a good remote control .
A: Mm-hmm .
C: Of course it should have a on off button . A: Mm-hmm .
B: Yes , well
B: i it should have the the the the expected functionality uh of a remote control .
A: Mm . Yeah .
C: Yeah ,
C: s
C: and it depends what application you are using it for .
A: Mm .
C: You might need uh B: We wer we were thinking television . Uh .
A: Mm .
C: We are targ targeting the television set .
C: So ,
A: Mm .
C: you need to record the channels .
A: Yeah .
B: Mm-hmm .
C: You need to browse the browse the channels in upward downward way ,
B: Yes , yes .
A: Mm .
B: Th th that's very handy
B: I I always miss it
B: and on some remote controls that you can go channel up or down ins instead of retyping the number , especially when you have a lot of channels .
C: Uh C: And A: Mm . Mm .
C: Uh , and D: And uh just before starting the detailed discussion , maybe we
D: are the marketing guy ? Or A: I'm marketing .
D: th
C: Marketing .
D: So you are the marketing .
A: Yep .
D: And you are in the u use user interface uh design .
C: Yeah .
B: Yes .
D: So just yeah
C: Yeah .
D: I wanted to to be sure .
C: Sure .
D: And I I'm the the industrial designer
A: Mm-hmm .
D: okay .
C: B: Yes .
D: Because I I don't know you very well , actually , but yeah .
C: Oh .
C: I'm Matthew . You know . D: Okay .
D: Mael .
C: Matth s uh
D: Happy to meet you .
A: Anna .
D: Okay .
C: Anna .
D: It's very uh C: And
B: A and I'm Nanne .
C: um uh Matthew , yeah .
C: I thi think you know me ,
B: So D: Uh so yeah uh Just uh on your web page but uh yeah not uh not face to face .
C: yeah ?
C: right yeah .
B: Yes .
B: So . Um B: S
D: So mm C: So .
B: S s
A: Mm .
D: So
B: Are there some other very important things to to do well ,
C: So D: I
B: to specify in this first phase of of the project .
B: So
B: the browse function , as you m mentioned .
A: Mm . Yeah . Oth yeah .
C: And uh , you'd need the usual ones , like the changing the volume , changing the the channel
C: and then you uh B: Yes . Yeah .
C: Today we have uh um teletext and all those things .
C: Tomorrow you might have a some more functions
C: which might come through that , so B: Yes .
D: Like what ?
D: Like internet on the on T_V_ ?
C: Yeah
A: Mm .
C: I_P_O_ or .
C: Now we are looking for
C: television things or I_P_ .
C: For example personal video recorder and all those stuffs are coming up .
D: Yeah .
A: Mm .
A: But we can't really design for something that hasn't been invented yet .
C: Yeah .
C: Ah
C: it's it's it's it's coming up , actually . The personal video recorder and all those things it is coming up .
B: Mm , well uh
B: I I think D: Actually , yeah
B: Uh w y you two should should , I think , think this over uh w espec what , what functionality .
C: Let's Let's take D: w D: Of course ,
D: and first before um designing the func
D: well
D: thinking about the functionalities , we need to know what are the user requirements .
A: Mm . Yeah .
D: Um then if they need internet , then we would be able to to p to propose something with uh uh T_V_ over I_P_ .
B: Mm-hmm .
A: Yeah .
A: Mm .
A: Yeah .
A: But Ninety percent of the time , ninety nine percent of the time , people will be using the main functions , the volume , the different channels ,
A: so
A: we can have all the fancy things as well
