AND UH AFTER THAT I PUT UP A SCHEME ABOUT HOW UH THESE THINGS ARE ORGANISED AND I'LL SHOW IT TO YOU IN IN A IN A FEW SECONDS AND I'LL EXPLAIN A BIT ABOUT UH HOW IT WORKS AND HOW WE COULD UH BUILD ONE AND WHY I THINK SEVERAL POSSIBILITIES UH THAT WE DISCUSSED IN THE EARLIER MEETING FALLS OFF UM RIGHT UH WELL WHAT I DID WAS UH I I CHECKED UH REMOTE CONTROLS AND THE UH REMOTE CONTROLS OF TODAY ARE ALL INFRARED NOT LIKE ALL PROBABLY KNOW AND THE THING ABOUT THAT IS UM THE REMOTE CONTROLS UH HAVE TO ACT AS A T. V. OR UH A STEREO OR SOMETHING AND THOSE UH HAVE A TRANSMITTER THAT'S ALSO FOCUSED ON INFRARED SO IF WE WANT TO UH BUILD UH MM A REMOTE CONTROL UH WITH BLUETOOTH FOR INSTANCE THEN UH THE T. V. SHOULD HAVE BLUETOOTH TOO IN ORDER TO COMMUNICATE SO THAT WOULD MEAN EXTRA COST FOR THE USER AND THUS UH THAT'S THAT WOULDN'T MEAN A A CHEAP UH REMOTE CONTROL FOR US SO THAT'S PROBABLY WHY MOST CONTROLS ARE STILL INFRARED FURTHERMORE THEY ALL HAVE UH A A VERY SIMPLE STRUCTURE SO THAT WOULD PROBABLY UH MEAN LOWER COSTS AND UH I THAT COULD MEAN FOR US A GOOD THING UH 'CAUSE UH WELL WE WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO BUILD A RELATIVELY CHEAP UH A CHEAP UH REMOTE WELL UH AS I MENTIONED READY WE HAVE SOME BLUETOOTH WELL IT MAY BE POSSIBLE BUT UH I FIGURED IT WOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE IN WITHIN OUR BUDGET BUT THAT'S NOT FOR ME TO DECIDE BUT THAT'S MAYBE SOMETHING FOR MARKETING TO LOOK INTO F BECAUSE UH WELL MY PERSONAL OPINION IS UH IS NOT TO DO UH BLUETOOTH OR OR RADIO WAVES ALTHOUGH WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT UH INCORPORATING BLUETOOTH OR A RADIO UH RECEIVER UH IN THE PLACE HOLDER NEXT TO THE T. V. CONNECTED TO THE T. V. YEAH ACTUALLY I HAVE T YEAH YEAH I ACTUALLY I FIGURED THAT WOULD BE THAT WOULD BE RATHER NICE BUT THEN YOU'D STILL HAVE THE UH THE INFRARED FUNCTION SO IN IN THEORY YOU'D ACTUALLY JUST MOVE THE PROBLEM BUT UH WHAT I DID UH THINK ABOUT WAS WHEN YOU MENTIONED ABOUT THE UH THE CUP HOLDER IS WHY NOT UH INTRODUCE A SPEECH FUNCTION LIKE WHERE IS THE REMOTE IF SOMEBODY SAYS WHERE IS THE REMOTE THEN IT GOES UH BEEP UH BEEP BEEP BEEP OR SOMETHING I DUNNO MAYBE UH MAYBE SOMETHING TO LOOK INTO I DUNNO UH WHAT THE COST THAT SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD BE BUT IT MAY BE UH MAY BE SOMETHING TO EXPLORE UH I'LL I'LL JUST EXPLAIN A BIT OF THE COMPONENTS UH FIRST YOU HAVE THE ENERGY SOURCE THE ENERGY SOURCE WOULD BE A BATTERY SIMPLE UH BATTERY UH THAT YOU CAN FIND ANYWHERE I FIGURED THAT WOULD BE BEST 'CAUSE WHEN THE BATTERY UH STOPS FUNCTIONING UH WE COULD JUST UH USE YOU COULD JUST GO OUT AND BUY A NEW ONE SO WE DIDN'T AND WE DON'T HAVE TO DO ALL UH TO BE TOO COMPLICATED ABOUT THAT UH THE ENERGY SOURCE IS CONNECTED TO THE INFRARED BUTTON BUT UH THE INFRARED BUTTON UH WORKS ONLY VIA THE CHIP AND THE SUBCOMPONENT TO UH THE SWITCH THERE IS A SWITCH UH BETWEEN THESE WHEN THE SWITCH IS PRESSED IN A W ON THIS THIS CASE IT SWITCHES A BUTTON WHEN A BUTTON IS PRUSH PUSHED IN UH A ELECTRIC CURRENT GOES THROUGH HERE AND IN UH IMMEDIATELY A L A BULB LIGHTS UP UH DISPLAYING TO THE USER THAT SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED THAT'S UH THAT'S SO THE H USER WON'T BE UM THINKING WELL UH DID THE BUTTON BE PRESSED W WHAT HAPPENED UH OR I PRESS BUTTON BUT NOTHING'S HAPPENING ON THE T. V. SO IS IS SOMETHING WRONG OR SOMETHING SO THAT'S JUST TO UH TO TO EXPLAIN THE OF TO TO UH MAKE IT CLEARER TO THE USER UH W WELL THE SIGNAL GOES VIA CHIP THAT'S TRANSLATED INTO UH ELECTRIC SIG UH ELECTRONIC SIGNALS AND THEN IT'S PROCESSED AND THEN IT'S SENT TO THE INFRARED BULB WHERE IT WILL BE UH UH RECEIVED ON THE RECEIVING END AND THOSE UH INTERPRETED BY THE DEVICE WELL IN THIS CASE THE TELEVISION UH WELL MY PERSONAL PREFERENCES HERE WELL WE HAVE TO KEEP IT SIMPLE NOT TOO MANY UH GADGETS AND FUNCTIONS JUST LIKE YOU SAID UH WELL THE MOST USERS N UH YOU HAVE A LOT OF BUTTONS AND YOU U U USE YOU DON'T USE THEM SO WHY WHY SHOULD WE INVENT UH W SPEND MORE TIME ON THOSE UH I I THINK WE SHOULD STICK BY WITH INFRARED TRANSMITTING AND UH NO RECEIVING SO UH NO INPUT FROM THE TELEVISION SO I THINK WE SHOULDN'T BE UH SPENDING TIME ON UM TELETEXT AND ST THINGS LIKE THAT BECAUSE WHEN YOU UH WANT TELETEXT ON UH INFRARED YOU'D HAVE TO BUILD IN A RECEIVER TOO AND SO IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE SIGNALS FROM UH WHAT'S ON T. V. AND SUCH SO I FIGURE THAT WOULD BE UH SPENDING TOO MUCH MONEY AND TIME AND UM YEAH MAYBE ANOTHER PROBLEM UH I THINK CURRENT T. V. S CAN EVEN SEND INFRARED BUT SHOULD WE SPEND MONEY OR AND TIME ON BUILDING A RECEIVER INTO THE UH REMOTE CONTROL 'CAUSE THAT WOULD BE I MEAN EXTRA COMPONENTS EXTRA DESIGNS UM LARGER G UH REMOTE CONTROL THESE ALL UH ALL STUFF THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE IN ACCOUNT SO I I MY PERSONAL OPINION IS NO NO NO RECEIVER AT ALL UM WELL WE SHOULD UH LOOK INTO THE DESIGN AND THE FUNCTIONABILITY LIKE I SAID UH USE ONE BUTTON FOR INSTANCE FOR M MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS OR WELL UH JUST HIDE THE FEW BUTTONS O OF SWITCHING IT OPEN OR SOMETHING THE USUAL UH STUFF AND UH DON'T OVERBUILD WE SHOULDN'T MAKE A BIG UH REMOTE CONTROL FOR SIMPLE FUNCTIONS BUT WE WE SHOULD STICK TO THE BASICS SO THAT WAS MY UH MY PERSONAL OPINION AND THAT WAS MY UH MY PRESENTATION UH OKAY THANK YOU JANUS YES I CAN GO AHEAD LAST PRESENTATION OKAY IF YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TOO LONG I WILL UH EVENTUALLY UH WARN YOU WELL I'M GOING TO GIVE A PRESENTATION ABUT SOME OF THE TECHNICAL FUNCTIONS OF THESE DESIGN AND UH USABILITY FUNCTIONS UM WHAT'S MY OPINION ABOUT WHAT'S MOST IMPORTANT TO COMBINE THE DESIGN TECHNICAL POSSIBILITIES AND THE USER FRIENDLINESS IN ONE SO IF YOU UM GOING TO DESIGN A REMOTE THAT LOOKS GOOD THAT SHOULDN'T WEIGH OVER THE UH IF IT'S POSSIBLE TO MAKE OF COURSE BUT ALSO THE USER FRIENDLINESS SO THA THAT'S THAT'S SOME OF THE MAIN POINTS AND ANOTHER ONE IS UM THE USE UM OF MANY FUNCTIONS WILL WILL MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT SO USE AS AS LITTLE FUNCTIONS AS POSSIBLE OR AT LEAST DON'T DISPLAY THEM ALL AT ONCE ON THE SAME REMOTE IF YOU HAVE FIFTY FUNCTIONS YOU DON'T WANT FIFTY BUTTONS UH T UH TO BE SHOWN AT THE SAME TIME
