Project Manager: Uh I think we can discuss a little about the the three uh kind of revolutionary things uh Tim uh came with . The parental control , the games , and the voice recognition .
Marketing: Industrial Designer: Project Manager: Uh Industrial Designer: Project Manager: There's n not uh too much decision on uh that one so uh I think that parental control is a good function to uh to put in the remote . I don't know how you think about it .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: Well , I agree , just put it in the menu structure somewhere .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Um , yeah um system properties , um parental control .
Marketing: Yeah but What I see uh  How I see it is you put it on the the remote and then you have like a Windows log-on screen with parents , children .
User Interface: Yeah . Mm .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Marketing: Something like that .
User Interface: Um , w well , yeah .
Marketing: And w when you want to use the parents uh option , you have to User Interface: It it has to be fast . You don't want to to go down and watch the news at eight o'clock and turn it on and wait twenty seconds for for uh the log-on screen and then remember your code and all kinds of settings .
Marketing: Yeah , ok
Project Manager: No but I think most people uh find it uh much more important that their children don't watch uh sex or violence uh on the television , and uh wait uh ten or fifteen seconds longer , so they can uh finally watch it uh because of that .
User Interface: Mm-hmm . Why Mm-hmm . You c may use like when there's uh X_P_ , uh a simple log-on , d you just push uh one or two or three .
Project Manager: Uh Marketing: Yeah . Yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah . Pu push parents .
User Interface: And if you push parents , then Marketing: That then then then you have to uh go to three-digit uh log-in .
User Interface: Yeah . To log in . Yeah . And if you puts a ye
Marketing: Like two one three .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Uh-huh .
Marketing: And it's in .
User Interface: And if you w you push p children , uh you don't have to uh log in , but you can only watch uh children's channels or uh Marketing: It automatically goes Yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah . Yeah .
User Interface: Okay . Well Industrial Designer: I don't know if it's worth uh the time and effort we are going to spend on it . Because well it's a simple function , but it's gonna take a lot of resources and a lot of time um to programming it . Because you'll have to start working with the profiles and such . And I'm not sure if it's actually worth uh investing that much time and effort into it .
Marketing: Mm-hmm .
Project Manager: Well I think that's a b there's a big market for it ,
Industrial Designer: I don't know what Project Manager: because uh you Yeah , you read many times in magazines same kind of stuff , and you heard on the news that uh that he Yeah , they believe that children uh are influenced by the television ,
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Mm yeah . V violent T_V_ .
Project Manager: and uh Well , we're we're aiming uh to uh below uh forty uh years . But there are a lot of uh people will below forty who have uh children in young age uh who who want um to uh not watch uh violent or uh User Interface: Yeah . Well , maybe um some idea on that .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Just make through a remote as it is , but make an option to insert profiles ,
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: 'cause if my grandad would buy this remote , he wouldn't want to bother with all all the all the uh things to do .
Marketing: Yeah , of course .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Just make it an option in menu , ins install powerful profiles or something .
Project Manager: Yeah yeah .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: That's a that's a better idea ?
Marketing: Yeah , w It just has to be w when it's deliver out of the store , it has to be just simple and plain .
Project Manager: Yeah . Yeah , okay .
Marketing: But if you want to install it personally uh If I got kids , and I could choose between uh two remote controls . One uh w with parent control and one without , and I would would buy the one with .
Project Manager: Yeah , with and one without . Yeah . User Interface: Um , b well , still some question I have about how to incorporate those ones .
Marketing: I th Yeah .
User Interface: You're thinking about some channels they uh cannot see , but well , I I when I think , oh yeah , for the f for all the standard channels , and only for maybe after ten o'clock uh in the evening violent films and movies uh will come
Industrial Designer: Marketing: User Interface: and uh maybe maybe some some timing uh will be uh needed instead of uh of channels ,
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: because if you're watching uh , I don't know , you're in the at day uh , cartoons will come up m on maybe Friday night . I don't know .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Project Manager: Yeah , maybe it can work with show view . Uh , you you can control your video recorder with show view .
User Interface:  Project Manager: Uh , when you tick in a number , it will uh start and end uh recording . But maybe there's some option that uh that t uh the kind of show view numbers are violent , and that they are blocked out .
User Interface: Yeah , the disadvantage vantage is that someone will has to send all the show-view numbers of the programs that they remotes and edit it all ,
Project Manager: Yeah . That's true . Yeah .
User Interface: will have to decide uh Marketing: Yeah but yeah but that isn't possible .
User Interface: That isn't possible .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: But , well , if you want to I i i if we in incorporate uh the parental control , uh let's say we do , and and well whatever , cho uh child just goes up to the T_V_ and presses up for instance .
Marketing: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Well uh , nob nobody's stopping the child from uh well checking uh the channel .
Marketing: Hmm .
User Interface: Well , yeah you could say if parental control is only it it'll go from fourteen to sixteen with the page-up then , but Industrial Designer: But that Well , I'm not sure because um for that to happen , you d you will have to receive a signal from the uh remote control , so it would , yeah , have to be constant uh constant signalling .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: What m what may be better is to incorporate an uh a separate device that uh that you can program with the remote control . And that uh provides parental control , for instance . And that's just an optional uh device . So there's n that's there's  uh besides uh the remote control , you'll have a separate uh  Project Manager: I wouldn't put it in an optional device . That that then then then it becomes too much , I think .
Industrial Designer: Yeah ?
Project Manager: If we do it , we we must do it in a kind of ways that like a profile , a parent profile , and a family profile , and otherwise .
Marketing: Yeah , and User Interface: Yeah , on a separate menu uh option .
Marketing: And and you know w uh when you install another device , uh children can still go up to the T_V_ , p pop open uh the thing and and and g
Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , that's true . That's true ,
Marketing: go to a channel .
Industrial Designer: but uh at same instant , same happens when uh you have remote control . So Marketing: Yeah , yeah of course . But Industrial Designer: But , only difference is uh the uh the people buying the remote control will now get the f added feature of parental control ,
Project Manager: Industrial Designer: and those people wouldn't uh necessary want it .
Marketing: Yeah . Ah it's Industrial Designer: So , you you'd be
Marketing: Yeah . Yeah , okay . But it's just an an added feature feature .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay . And what do you uh guys think of the games in the voice recognition ? I personally think that that becomes too much .
User Interface: Yeah , well yeah , I  Project Manager: It's more like it gets you to the functionality , but User Interface: A mail too from management that it's very popular to use voice recon recognition .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: But I don't think when you're watching T_V_ uh , hearing loud noises from the T_V_ , someone screaming one , and you f the channel switches , uh Yeah .
Marketing: Mm yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Yeah , like f voice recognition is too much , I think . But Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: And games ?
Marketing: games . It doesn't Industrial Designer: Yeah . I can see games happening . Yeah .
User Interface: W you can put it on chip anyway , so uh Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: That would User Interface: As long as it's isn't a primary feature of the remote ,
Marketing: That that doesn't c that doesn't co
User Interface: but uh Marketing: Yeah , that that doesn't cost a lot of extra resources , I think .
Project Manager: Okay . So that will uh that that that must be in it , you think ?
Industrial Designer: Yeah , that will be nice .
Project Manager: Okay . So the games uh are in it . The voice recognition are not . And the parental control are
User Interface: Optional in
Project Manager: optional ?
Marketing: Yeah , it's it's in it . But too ma I I think so , but User Interface: But how we do it ? Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Well , I think also it's a good idea , buts very difficult to incorporate . So we should make it too complex .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Is t some menu uh function , you choose parental control , and maybe four files will emerge from menu where put it on .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: But uh how how it's gonna work uh uh will f be a problem .
Project Manager: Yeah , okay . Uh , but uh will there uh uh Like the first idea uh from uh You can buy it without and uh with parental contr control ? Or are we going to put it in and uh just uh User Interface: Mm-hmm . Well Ye I I think best would be uh to put it in and make it an menu option .
Marketing: To put User Interface: You can put on Marketing: Yeah , to put it in always .
Project Manager: Yeah ?
User Interface: Yeah . And you can just uh s when you buy it , you can select um personal preference , parental control on , and the password or something .
Project Manager: Mm yeah .
Industrial Designer: Well , I don't know . I I figure if you had two different remotes , you could bo choose one with uh well uh uh a receiver in it . So you could actually easily uh build in uh parental control . But it would would be uh more expensive . So , a and that that way uh you could make cheap model and a expensive model . Could ma make the uh simple model and the deluxe model , uh for instance .
User Interface: Oh , it's a p Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah , but T_V_s aren't capable of sending .
Industrial Designer: Yes they are . Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah ? I thought they were just
Project Manager: Yeah , you yo
Industrial Designer: Yeah , you you have some T_V_s any Marketing: a able to receive . Yeah , some . But Project Manager: Yeah , but most often not .
Industrial Designer: Yeah . That is true , that is true .
User Interface: Well , maybe you just have to restrict it to what programs , where the parent says , you cannot watch channel seven , nine , and ten , and you cannot watch all channels after ten o'clock .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: And there's just some little uh clock in the remote .
Industrial Designer: Well yeah , you could you could easily you could easily you could easily to the mote control .
Marketing: Yeah , j just some rules .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: But you still have the problem about uh the television itself .
User Interface: No , no , it's very simple . There uh th I h I've seen some of remotes who have a clock in it .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , yeah yeah .
User Interface: So , the remote does doesn't transmit when it's after twelve clock .
Marketing: Yeah , okay . But , on the T_V_
User Interface: Yeah ?
Marketing: at least my T_V_ , is a is a compartment which you can press .
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: And there are buttons uh behind it which you can use , if you d if you don't if you don't have a Industrial Designer: Yeah .
User Interface: Yeah . Well , that's To put it very blunt , that's not our problem . Just have um the parents buy uh some glue and uh It's not not a part of the remote .
Marketing: Yeah . Yeah . Yeah , of course .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , that is true . Yeah , that is true .
User Interface: You have to f Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , you could you could you could go like User Interface: Uh , or make it ourselves very diffic
Industrial Designer: uh that that would actually make uh things a lot more easy .
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: You could just blame it on television and uh make it their problem .
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah . Industrial Designer: Yeah , I figured I figure we could do that . Yeah , yeah , sure . Project Manager: User Interface: Okay .
Industrial Designer: Uh , I'm not sure what marketing thinks about it , but  Marketing: Or j Yeah .
User Interface: Marketing: Ah  Project Manager: Marketing: I have to uh consult my legal advisor about it .  Project Manager: Okay . So uh I think we have decided on the things that Uh from Janus , the energy , the combination between battery and kinetic .
User Interface: Industrial Designer:  Project Manager: The case will be double-curved and uh rubber , in a fr flashy fruity colour uh that with cover is removable .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Project Manager: The buttons will be uh touch-screen . Uh but there may not be too many buttons . And in the the menu structure , uh there must not to be uh Five minutes to go . Uh , too uh too many levels . And uh it must be easy to use . The parental control will be incorporated , but it must be not too complex . And the games are in it . So Marketing: Project Manager: I think we have uh we have decided uh , okay .
User Interface: Okay .
Marketing: Consensus .
Project Manager: Uh , little more .
Marketing: Oh . Oh . I I have one thing left .
User Interface: Oh .
Project Manager: Yeah .
Marketing: Maybe for uh Jerome .
User Interface: Yeah ? I'm listening .
Marketing: Um , the views . Maybe it's uh handy to build in an expert view and a simple view .
Project Manager: Like a like a moat or s or something . Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: Um , well Industrial Designer: User profile .
Marketing: Like at In the experts view , you have a lot of more buttons .
Project Manager: Yeah , but you have that in the User Interface: What I was thinking about is just a menu structure , when you don't use it is simple .
Project Manager: Yeah . You use the User Interface: And when you push uh system properties , uh entire list pops up with e ev all kind of f stuff you can program .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah . It's already incorporated a little in that concept .
Marketing: Mm yeah , okay . Fairly enough . Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Well yeah , you you could actually build in a function that you can program it yourself , for the more advanced users .
Marketing: Yeah , wh which buttons you like or not .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , which buttons do you want to in it . Because you can you can like build in a back-forward button , and uh some po somebody would just want to watch two channels .
Marketing: Yeah . Yeah . Just leave the other numbers away .
Project Manager: Okay .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , you could you could m have people want uh want that .
Project Manager: We take it to the other meeting , okay ? I have a little w uh little chat to do
Marketing: Okay . Go on .
Industrial Designer: Ah , yeah , sure .
Project Manager: and uh then we uh finish .
Marketing: A little chat . 

Summary: Group mates agreed that they could incorporate the parental control as well as the gaming features into the remote control. However, they would discard the idea of voice recognition because it would be too much for the remote feature.
