Project Manager: Now let's talk about uh interface .
User Interface: Okay . Uh participant number three .
Project Manager: Three .
Industrial Designer: Three .
User Interface: Uh
Project Manager: Which one ? Industrial Designer: Marketing: Hmm . User Interface: mm mm uh have a look at this Project Manager: Industrial Designer: User Interface: no it's yeah .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Uh so the concept of the interface . Generally I developed quite a broad concept not only for the interface , but for possible instruction or user's manual and uh all the complex things that come together with your T_V_ and remote controls . So let's start with this . We got our perfect remote control with a lot of buttons
Marketing:   User Interface: and uh we got explanation for every button
Industrial Designer: User Interface: and you can use your time and uh it will take i some days to learn all this buttons and um the L_C_D_ is going to be somewhere here and uh go back button , I don't know really where it is , maybe one of this buttons , and um power on and off mm I I don't remember
Project Manager: Mm .
Industrial Designer:  Marketing: User Interface: so uh it it it should be maybe this button is power on and off ? Or no ? I can see nothing . So that's our concept . It's called the millennium remote control .
Project Manager: Marketing: Let's change millenniums . Industrial Designer: So
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: maybe you can use in the end and  Marketing: doesn't make sense . This is very ugly .
User Interface: Really ? Project Manager: User Interface: I thought you like it . Ah okay
Marketing: Oh no ,
User Interface: just press the button , please uh . Marketing: too much concept .
Project Manager: No .
Marketing: Ah .
Industrial Designer: Uh Marketing:  User Interface: Yeah , we will not use this . We will not use this .
Project Manager: User Interface: But instead of this I will devise That's our concept .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Ah , back today . Industrial Designer: User Interface: And it's got just few buttons , quite low looking , and all this stuff we already we already discussed .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm . 'Kay .
User Interface: And uh what will people say ? They'll say it's perfect . Or what will say ? Uh they will say it's splendid . And uh e everyone will say I'll buy it .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: Do you think it can come in several colours ?
User Interface: And everyone's gonna be satisfied .
Marketing: Or did the User Interface: I would make a backlight of the L_C_D_ screen with different colours .
Marketing: Um but not the case .
User Interface: Not the case .
Marketing: Uh the case would only be in that uh aluminium uh titanium stuff ,
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: like Industrial Designer: Mm .
Project Manager: Because apparently from your survey people like colours , no ?
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah , well they like uh something which is uh User Interface: Okay , so let's remember there's a Nokia phone which changeable panels .
Marketing: Mm yeah , okay ,
User Interface: Do you like it ?
Marketing: so that would be the option . I don't know I don't have a Nokia phone ,
Project Manager: Industrial Designer: But it's uh Marketing: but I don't use that but again , uh I might User Interface: That's why you don't have it . That's why ,
Marketing: Yeah ,
User Interface: 'cause it's nasty . Marketing: bu but  Project Manager: Industrial Designer: But it would be expensive , no ? If you use colour L_C_D_ .
User Interface: No .
Industrial Designer: Uh instead of that maybe we can change the colour of the assembler .
Marketing: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: Maybe we can just if users want more colours they can pay more money to get this uh the shapes and they can have different assembly .
User Interface: Um , I am here .
Project Manager: Okay .
Industrial Designer: So users have different I mean they have their own interests , colour interests and so Project Manager: So ?
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: So we can just if they want they can just pay another two Euro .
Project Manager: Uh-huh , okay , so
User Interface: 'Kay .
Project Manager: you you propose something with option i that increase the price if we if you want o more colours on L_C_D_ ,
Industrial Designer: Yeah . Yeah yeah yes . If they want like uh so that we can yeah .
Marketing: Kind of upgradable uh remote control .
Project Manager: yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: Wow , wow .
Industrial Designer: Just they'll get few more things and few more colours .
User Interface: Okay , what uh there's one more decisi uh one more solution in fact , um 'cause there are some some paints that can change colour according to where they are , like they can reflect different colours depending on what is around , like what colour is around , and depending on the temperature ,
Industrial Designer: Lights , yeah .
Marketing: Mm .
Project Manager: And thermodynamic also . Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: Like a chameleon .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah yeah .
User Interface: We can make it in fact .
Project Manager: Yeah but that's maybe mo too much expensive , yeah .
User Interface: If if if the Industrial Designer: Mm .
User Interface: okay .
Marketing: Mm-hmm .
Project Manager: But uh it can be in uh maybe in an a gradable version ,
User Interface: Mm-hmm , mm-hmm ,
Project Manager: but Industrial Designer: Yeah .
User Interface: so Marketing: Because uh I think there are two kinds of people . Those for which the remote control is uh is to be uh something useful uh I'm going to talk about this later but and those for which is something that that that uh is uh specific to them so it it's like a signature . My remote control is pink . Nobody else than me has a pink remote control .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: Uh-huh .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: And that makes me special .
Project Manager: Okay
Marketing: Project Manager: and you think that we don't have to make to make them pay more because of uh o or this is Industrial Designer: Marketing: I think I think they would be ready p ready to pay more for that .
Project Manager: Okay , so
Marketing: Those who wanted to have it pink .
Project Manager: so i it's not uh a s base service
Industrial Designer: Uh Marketing: No mm no .
Project Manager: it's a User Interface: So ,
Industrial Designer: Mm .
User Interface: be an option ,
Project Manager: Mm .
User Interface: yeah .
Marketing: It might be optional , yeah .
Project Manager: Okay .
Industrial Designer: But those people will be really few , no ? So like we can those Marketing: The the young people the young people want to be different from their friends .
Industrial Designer: Ah .
Marketing: Although similar but have something just slightly better . Pink Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: So m so
Industrial Designer: Mm . Project Manager: maybe that's  if that it's a selling point maybe it has to be the base .
User Interface: Yeah , yeah ,
Marketing: Mm . Yeah .
User Interface: yeah . But you know if you want to be different you just take your remote control with you all the time .
Project Manager: And you'll be different .
User Interface: And it makes you different ,
Industrial Designer: Marketing: Yeah , yeah .
User Interface: you know ?
Marketing: You always have your remote .
Project Manager: Uh in the train uh , hello uh no . Want to change my neighbour .
User Interface: Anyone has their remote controls here ?
Marketing: Oh , you don't ? Yeah . You don't have your remo User Interface: No ? Industrial Designer: Marketing: Wh you you know like for instance take the iPod . It's a kind of remote control . Uh it's white
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: and it's so white that you see it from any anywhere .
Project Manager: Mm .
Marketing: It has this distinctive look and feel and look which people seems to like User Interface: Okay .
Marketing: just because it's a colour that we don't usually see in a remote control . White .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: Uh-huh , uh-huh . Could we integrate something into our remote control , something like light ?
Marketing: Seems important .
Industrial Designer: Hmm .
User Interface: That they can use it in darkness , like . Hand light ,
Marketing: Mm glow in the dark ,
Industrial Designer: Project Manager: User Interface: yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yeah
Marketing: so Industrial Designer: maybe like the infrared like we can put some radium chips or something
Marketing: User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: so that like at least um Project Manager: Iradium ? Industrial Designer: yeah .
User Interface: Okay . Okay .
Industrial Designer:   Yeah ,
Marketing: Project Manager: Ah sorry . Mm .
Industrial Designer: that Project Manager: Okay . So mm User Interface: Okay . S well ,
Marketing: Okay .
User Interface: let's go on maybe with the presentation .
Marketing: Yeah . Uh-huh , yeah sure . Project Manager: Mm-hmm . User Interface: And um the remote control's going to be smart
Industrial Designer: Oh .
User Interface: but how smart should it be to not to complicate things too much ?
Project Manager: User Interface: And uh
Industrial Designer: User Interface: I dunno
Marketing: User Interface: that's a question to you and to mm to Marketing: Well so I heard that uh it seems that speech recognition is something that can be done uh so that's the smartness of the thing .
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: Currently we don't have guns with speech recognition or uh beer cans with speech recognition
Industrial Designer: Marketing: but we may have remote controls with speech recognition .
User Interface: Okay , okay .
Industrial Designer: Marketing: I dunno . Project Manager: Mm , that's a nice world . User Interface: So just just just just think about it um .
Marketing: User Interface: Thank you .
Marketing: Don't touch the remote .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: But yeah . Are are you saying here that uh the remote controls should be aware of who is using it ? So for instance the young guy would not be able to use it because his father doesn't want .
User Interface: Uh yeah I just want to say it should be real smart .
Marketing: Like with some Maybe fingerprint recognition or User Interface: Voice recognition is quite tough . I say don't use it , and the control just looks .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: Mm .
User Interface: 'Cause I ordered jus To l to l lock it .
Marketing: Um Mm .
Industrial Designer: Uh that mm that could be feasible I guess , like So since we have we want to do some speaker dependent speech recognition uh so we can use Marketing: Okay . So it could be smart in that way .
Industrial Designer: yeah . Yeah , yeah . Project Manager: Mm . Okay .
Marketing: But for instance th I I'm thinking about the other uh uh particularity that the the remote control could have . S since it it knows who is using it , it might also record the kind of uh channels you are u more often using and uh levels of volumes that you're more often uh things like that
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: Mm .
User Interface: Yeah , sure .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: and provide you ways of using them , I dunno , somehow ,
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: I dunno , that might be expensive
Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: but
Industrial Designer: Uh it's Marketing: that might also be a good sales pitch again .
Project Manager: Industrial Designer: Hmm .
Marketing: The remote that knows you . Project Manager: User Interface: Mm-hmm . Industrial Designer: Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Okay , thanks .

Summary: The user interface designer presented a good-looking design with few buttons. As for the colour, the user interface designer suggested making a backlight of the LCD screen with different colours, but this was denied due to the high cost. Then the industrial designer recommended changing the colour of the assembly at an extra charge to meet special needs. Light and infrared were also taken into consideration to make the controller glow in the dark. In order to make a smart controller, the group mentioned speech recognition and user identification.
