WHICH I PRESUME IS LIKE ONE P. C. B. AND THAT'S GOT ALL THE ELECTRONICS ON ONE BOARD INCLUDING THE UM INFRA RED SENDER YEAH RIGHT UM WHAT A WHAT ALTERNATIVES DO WE HAVE TO THAT Y UM WHAT ALTERNATIVES DO WE HAVE TO THE CHIP ON PRINT IT'S LESS EXPENSIVE MM SO IT SOUNDS SO WHY WOULD WE NOT GO FOR THAT IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S INSIDE THE THE UNIT I IT DOESN'T AFFECTS WHETHER THE CUSTOMER'S GONNA BUY IT OR NOT UM WE WANNA GO FOR AN I I ALL SO LONG AS IT WORKS YEAH YEAH I AGREE SO LET'S NOT LET'S UH NOT BOTHER WITH THE CHIP ON PRINT SO IT'S EITHER UM THE SCROLL WHEEL OR THE PUSH BUTTONS YEAH S YEAH PUSH BUTTONS I THINK PUSH BUTTONS IS WHAT ABOUT WHAT G THERE THE SAMPLE SENSOR SAMPLE SPEAKER THING MM I DUNNO BE COOL CHANNEL TWO BUT IT'S GONNA BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE OPTION PROBABLY AND TH THE THE SPEECH RECOGNITION UM OPTION IS IT DOESN'T SEEM REALLY VERY PROMISING FOR US UH 'CAUSE UH THE YEAH THE EXAMPLE THAT THEY'RE ALREADY USING IT FOR IS WITH THE COFFEE MACHINE WHERE BASICALLY YOU CAN PROGRAM A SAMPLE WI UM THAT WHEN YOU SAY SOMETHING IT WILL GIVE A RESPONSE AND YOU PROGRAM THE RESPONSE AS WELL JUST UH CLIPS OF THA THAT YOU RECORD YOURSELF SO YOU CAN PROGRAM YOUR COFFEE MAKER THAT WHEN YOU SAY GOOD MORNING TO IT IT SAYS HELLO RICK OR WHATEVER BUT I MEAN IT'S NOT IT WOULD BE ONE THING IF IT WAS SPEECH RECOGNITION WHERE YOU SAY SOMETHING AND IT TURNS THE T. V. ON LIKE TURN THE T. V. ON AND I TURNS COMES ON BUT IT'S NOT THAT IT JUST GIVES YOU A IT JUST GIVES YOU A VERBAL RESPONSE SO YEAH I MEAN LIKE WHAT'S THE POINT OF SAYING HELLO REMOTE I MEAN HELLO HOW HOW ARE YOU YEAH IF YOU'RE REALLY LONELY IT IS IT'S CHANNEL FIVE AND THEN IT SWITCHES ON CAN I HAVE CHANNEL FIVE OH THEN FORGET ABOUT IT OH RIGHT OKAY YEAH OKAY SO I'LL GO BACK MAYBE TO THE PREVIOUS SLIDE AND WE CAN DECIDE FOR EACH PROBLEM WHAT WE SHOULD CHOOSE SO FOR THE ENERGY SOURCE DO WE GO FOR THE BATTERY OR THE YEAH I'M FINE WITH THE BASIC BATTERY BASIC BATTERY IT'S CHEAP IT'S CHEERFUL IT'S WORKED DOES WORK HMM CHEAPER OPTION ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THAT OKAY SO WE'LL GO FOR THE BATTERY THEN THE CASE DO YOU WANT IT FLAT OR CURVED OR SING OR DOUBLE CURVED YEAH SO WE WANT IT RUB RUBBER DOUBLE CURVED YEP BUT WE'RE GOING FOR THE SIMPLE BUTTONS YEAH AND IT'S CHEAPEST ALL ROUND IT SOUNDS KINDA FUNKY AND WE CAN ALSO MARKET IT AS I 'CAUSE WE WERE S SAYING EARL YOU WERE SAYING EARLIER IN YOUR RESEARCH THAT UM THE THE PEOPLE HAVE THE R. PEOPLE WERE GETTING THE COMPLAINING ABOUT R. S. I. AND THIS IS ANTI R. S. I. YEAH YEAH SO THAT'S ANOTHER MARKETING POINT THAT WE CAN USE WELL THE RUBBER PUSH BUTTONS DON'T YOU HAVE TO MOVE YOUR MM EVEN IF IT'S A JOG WHEEL IT'S STILL REPETITIVE I THOUGHT THEY WOULD GIVE AN OPTION OF FLAT BUTTONS OR A YOU SEE YOU CAN STILL GET IT DOES YOU STILL GET REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURY WHETHER YOU ARE PRESSING A BUTTON OR PRESSING A FLAT BIT OF SCREEN IT'S THE V IT'S THE FACT THAT YOU ARE PRESSING THE SAME DOING THE SAME MOVEMENT IT'S NOT ACTUALLY WHAT YOU ARE DOING BUT THE FACT THAT THIS THIS RUBBER I IS ACTUALLY USED IN THESE ANTI R. S. I. PS SPECIFIC YEAH THE RUBBER'S GOOD WE'RE GIVING THEM A WAY TO BURN OFF STEAM BASICALLY YEAH YEAH SO THEY CAN SIT THERE AND GO LIKE NOT THAT WATCHING T. V. SHOULD BE THAT STRESSFUL OH YEAH I GUESS T. V. CAN BE STRESSFUL YEAH IF YOU'RE WATCHING SPORTS ALRIGHT THAT'S ME DONE ALRIGHT LET'S UM LET'S LET'S HEAR FROM YOU ABOUT THE UM IT'S THE INTERFACE YEAH SOME OF WHAT I HAVE TO SAY TIES INTO WHAT CATHERINE WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT SORRY OKAY SO I'M CONTINUING WITH THE USER INTERFACE UH TOPIC AND SO BASICALLY I CONSULTED WITH OUR MANUFACTURING DIVISION IT SOUNDED LIKE CATHERINE WAS ALSO SPEAKING WITH THEM UH I ALSO TOOK UH REISSA'S MARKETING FINDINGS FROM THE LAST MEETING INTO CONSIDERATION UM 'CAUSE I THINK THAT'S THAT'S CRUCIAL AS FAR AS UH WHAT KEYS WE'RE GOING TO INC INCLU WHAT BUTTONS WE ARE GOING TO INCLUDE AND AND HOW THEY'RE LAID OUT UH AND SO THE MANUFACTURING DIVISION UH SENT SOME SOME SAMPLES OF OF UH INTERFACE COMPONENTS THAT WE MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN USING THAT HAVE BEEN USED IN OTHER PRODUCTS UH LIKE THE COFFEE MACHINE SO I ALREADY MENTIONED THE SPEECH RECOGNITION INTERFACE I GUESS WE WE BASICALLY VETOED THAT IDEA IT'S IT'S POINTLESS MM UH IT'S JUST A SAMPLE SENSOR SAMPLE OUTPUT IT WOULD JUST BE PROBABLY THE MOST EXPENSIVE PART OF OUR REMOTE WITHOUT ANY ACTUAL INTERESTING FUNCTIONALITY AS FAR AS OPERATING THE T. V. UH SO YEAH THEY THEY ALSO GIVE THE UH THEY THEY SUGGESTED THE IDEA OF USING A SPINNING WHEEL LIKE YOU USE ON THE SIDE OF AN M. P. THREE PLAYER LIKE IPOD UM SO WE'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED THAT AND I THINK THAT WOULD ACTUALLY BE WORSE FOR SOMETHING LIKE R. S. I. I MEAN YOU GOT THAT THUMB MOVEMENT THAT YOU'RE CONSTANTLY DOING UM THE OTHER SUGGESTION AND I I HAVE A FEELING THAT WE'RE INTERESTED IN IN SOMETHING MORE GENERAL BUT THEY SUGGESTED UH YOU KNOW GOING I A LITTLE BIT INTO A A NICHE LIKE EITHER GEARING OUR REMOTE TOWARDS KIDS WHERE YOU COULD HAVE LOT OF COLOURS UM THE KEYS MIGHT BE YOU KNOW FUNNY OR OR OR UH SOMETHING FOR THE ELDERLY WHERE THE REMOTE'S VERY LARGE AND THE BUTTONS ARE VERY LARGE AND THERE'S ONLY A FEW BUTTONS BUT YOU KNOW WE CAN WE CAN DISCUSS THIS BUT IT SOUNDED LIKE FROM OUR LAST MEETING WE REALLY WANTED SOMETHING THAT WAS GENERAL BUT DONE WELL UH UM SO THE KEY LAYOUT AND DESIGN ARE REALLY CRUCIAL YOU DON'T WANT UH YOU WANT PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO QUICKLY ACCESS THE BUTTONS THAT THEY USE A LOT WITHOUT UH ALWAYS PRESSING THE WRONG ONE UM AND I DIDN'T MENTION THAT WE NEED A POWER BUTTON IN OUR LAST I CAN GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE HERE OF UH GOOD LAYOUT AND BAD LAYOUT UH FROM OUR MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT SO THIS WOULD BE AN EXAMPLE OF BAD LAYOUT WHERE YOU HAVE VOLUME UP AND VOLUME DOWN BUT THEY HAVE A V. ON BOTH OF THEM SO UH IT'S SORT OF CONFUSING FOR THE USER UH THIS IS THE EXAMPLE OF THE GIANT REMOTE THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE AND FOR SOMETHING FOR KIDS YEAH UM AND SO YEAH I TH I THINK MY PERSONAL PREFERENCES OF WE'VE ALL KIND OF TALKED ABOUT AND SEEMED TO BE ON THE SAME PAGE UM
