Extracted Content: Lois Hinkle: Mm uh.
  Amber Thompson: We're
  Lois Hinkle: Mm.
  Amber Thompson: the first.
  Lois Hinkle: We're first.
  Amber Thompson: Marketing Expert yes,
  Beatrice Richard: Mm.
  Beatrice Richard: So you found your spots.
  Amber Thompson: Yes.
  Lois Hinkle: Move
  Amber Thompson: Bling
  Lois Hinkle: to the
  Amber Thompson: bling.
  Lois Hinkle: meeting room.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Right.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Uh where has my screen gone?
  Shonda Ziegler: Hi.
  Lois Hinkle: Hello, good day.
  Shonda Ziegler: Oh yeah,
  Amber Thompson: Hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: we have to talk in, huh.
  Lois Hinkle: Yep.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. My screen is gone. Oh.
  Beatrice Richard: It's called black.
  Lois Hinkle: Kick-off meeting, wow.
  Shonda Ziegler: I'm
  Lois Hinkle: It's uh
  Shonda Ziegler: afraid
  Lois Hinkle: looks
  Shonda Ziegler: I'm a
  Lois Hinkle: uh
  Shonda Ziegler: bit
  Lois Hinkle: nice.
  Shonda Ziegler: slow for this stuff uh.
  Lois Hinkle: Hmm?
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: I'm afraid I'm a bit too slow. I don't know how much preparation you guys
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: did, but not
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: a lot.
  Lois Hinkle: No, it's it was uh
  Beatrice Richard: You
  Lois Hinkle: not enough.
  Beatrice Richard: see this beautiful presentation.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. Very
  Beatrice Richard: Okay
  Amber Thompson: nice.
  Beatrice Richard: let's get started.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh I sort of prepared this. Uh opening acquaintance, tool training, uh how to use the things here.
  Amber Thompson: Mm.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh project plan discussion, and yeah then the rest of the meeting.
  Shonda Ziegler: Mm-hmm.
  Beatrice Richard: Um we're supposed to develop a new remote control, that's both original, trendy and user-friendly. So, hope you have good ideas. I don't.
  Lois Hinkle: I did my best.
  Shonda Ziegler: Not
  Beatrice Richard: we're
  Shonda Ziegler: yet.
  Beatrice Richard: work we're working uh from top to bottom. Uh functional design, then we do some in individual work, then we have a meeting to discuss the results, etcetera etcetera. And at the end of the day we should have a prototype drawn up. Uh we have available the smart board and the whiteboard. Um uh we should take some practice. I have some instructions now to do that.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh well you know how to the documents work. So Uh this for toolbar. You see it next. Um we have a pen. And we can use this pen to perform.
  Shonda Ziegler: Operations.
  Beatrice Richard: Yes. So It doesn't always work. Yes.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay so you can draw.
  Amber Thompson: Draw.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay
  Amber Thompson: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: and in the format menu you can select colour and line width, etcetera etcetera.
  Amber Thompson: 'Kay.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay? Uh Okay. Each of you can uh take some practice and you should draw an animal. Uh you should explain Uh with different colours and with different pen widths. And you should explain why you draw that particular animal. So, Julian.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Don't take up too much space.
  Lois Hinkle: Um yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Different pen widths, how do you do that?
  Beatrice Richard: Uh with the format menu.
  Shonda Ziegler: Oh okay.
  Beatrice Richard: And use different colours etcetera.
  Shonda Ziegler: Are
  Beatrice Richard: And
  Shonda Ziegler: you serious?
  Beatrice Richard: what's that supposed to be?
  Lois Hinkle: It's a
  Amber Thompson: Should it
  Lois Hinkle: giraffe.
  Amber Thompson: be one
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Oh yeah. Oh yeah four legs.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh-huh.
  Amber Thompson: Giraffe's yellow.
  Lois Hinkle: Uh it needs some uh some yellow uh Oh format.
  Amber Thompson: Can you use one blank sheet per drawing? Or
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: y you must save it at the end and then
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah you can press the next button, which is uh yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: That's some spots.
  Beatrice Richard: I'll show
  Shonda Ziegler: I
  Beatrice Richard: you.
  Shonda Ziegler: in the file option menu.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. In file menu.
  Amber Thompson: Okay, then m make a new one.
  Shonda Ziegler: How much time do we have to draw anyway? 'Cause I can
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: take forever on this.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay. Do I have to explain uh why I chose this uh this animal?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: I think it's a it's a great animal.
  Beatrice Richard: What is it?
  Lois Hinkle: It's a it's a giraffe.
  Beatrice Richard: A giraffe okay.
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah,
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah
  Lois Hinkle: that's
  Beatrice Richard: I see
  Lois Hinkle: a
  Beatrice Richard: a long neck but
  Amber Thompson: It's more like a dinosaur.
  Lois Hinkle: Um Okay I'll will give it an uh an eye.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Uh.
  Beatrice Richard: That's nice of you.
  Lois Hinkle: Hey. Come on.
  Amber Thompson: Some leaf to eat.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay. Yeah pretty good. Uh could you press the next uh
  Lois Hinkle: The next? Yes.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay. Then
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: uh.
  Lois Hinkle: Here you go.
  Amber Thompson: Thanks.
  Lois Hinkle: Hmm.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Is this part of our a acquai or introduction
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah
  Shonda Ziegler: to each
  Beatrice Richard: sorry,
  Shonda Ziegler: other?
  Beatrice Richard: introduction
  Amber Thompson: Uh
  Beatrice Richard: and get acquainted and
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: That's the idea, so
  Shonda Ziegler: Uh. Your line broke.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. Alright. It's
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah
  Amber Thompson: not
  Beatrice Richard: it's
  Amber Thompson: that
  Beatrice Richard: a bit
  Amber Thompson: fast.
  Beatrice Richard: slow, so
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: I see. It misses the spot.
  Beatrice Richard: pressure.
  Shonda Ziegler: I'm guessing a turtle. No. I'm kidding.
  Amber Thompson: I say good guess. Uh
  Beatrice Richard: Why a turtle?
  Shonda Ziegler: Because of its shell.
  Amber Thompson: Because it's slow.
  Beatrice Richard: It's
  Lois Hinkle: 'Cause
  Beatrice Richard: slow.
  Lois Hinkle: it's so 'cause it's
  Beatrice Richard: You
  Lois Hinkle: green.
  Beatrice Richard: were slow too so
  Amber Thompson: Yeah I was a bit slow too.
  Shonda Ziegler: Dude you're
  Amber Thompson: So
  Shonda Ziegler: a good drawer.
  Amber Thompson: Uh some other line uh width uh
  Shonda Ziegler: Do you have a turtle pet?
  Amber Thompson: No.
  Shonda Ziegler: Uh okay.
  Amber Thompson: I dunno. Does it have legs?
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah yeah
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah
  Shonda Ziegler: yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: sure.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah not exactly legs but
  Shonda Ziegler: Stumpy
  Beatrice Richard: More
  Shonda Ziegler: stuff.
  Beatrice Richard: like fins or
  Amber Thompson: It's more like a tank. Yeah that's fins but I don't
  Shonda Ziegler: They
  Amber Thompson: know
  Shonda Ziegler: kind
  Amber Thompson: where.
  Shonda Ziegler: of l look like mole legs. With sharp nails
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: on.
  Amber Thompson: Some spots. Ah some eye.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah it's l looks
  Amber Thompson: Yeah
  Beatrice Richard: very friendly.
  Amber Thompson: that's a fr friendly turtle I guess. Yeah well I think it's uh fair enough.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: A little tail maybe.
  Amber Thompson: Right. I don't know what the position is. Does it have ears?
  Shonda Ziegler: Uh no.
  Beatrice Richard: No.
  Amber Thompson: No.
  Lois Hinkle: No.
  Amber Thompson: Oh okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: The little holes
  Amber Thompson: Can you
  Shonda Ziegler: maybe.
  Amber Thompson: erase ears or
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah yeah yeah.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah?
  Beatrice Richard: There's a a gum,
  Amber Thompson: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: gum
  Amber Thompson: Eraser.
  Beatrice Richard: to.
  Shonda Ziegler: And
  Amber Thompson: So
  Shonda Ziegler: why did you choose this animal?
  Beatrice Richard: He
  Amber Thompson: I
  Beatrice Richard: said
  Amber Thompson: dunno.
  Beatrice Richard: it was slow.
  Amber Thompson: I it just came into my mind. So
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Amber Thompson: there's no particular reason I pen.
  Beatrice Richard: I like it.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. Well I'm guess I'm done.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: That's my turtle.
  Beatrice Richard: Your turn
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: Niels.
  Amber Thompson: How to select the next or
  Beatrice Richard: The next
  Amber Thompson: here.
  Beatrice Richard: yeah.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. Here you go.
  Beatrice Richard: Makes new
  Shonda Ziegler: Colours
  Beatrice Richard: paper.
  Shonda Ziegler: were under format right?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Let's see.
  Beatrice Richard: Orange.
  Shonda Ziegler: How am I gonna do this? Um
  Shonda Ziegler: Mm uh.
  Lois Hinkle: A rabbit I
  Beatrice Richard: Kangaroo.
  Lois Hinkle: think. Kangaroo.
  Shonda Ziegler: Not quite actually.
  Lois Hinkle: Fox.
  Amber Thompson: A fox yeah. Firefox.
  Beatrice Richard: Dog.
  Shonda Ziegler: No.
  Beatrice Richard: Cat.
  Shonda Ziegler: Aye.
  Beatrice Richard: It's a cat.
  Shonda Ziegler: It's a cat.
  Lois Hinkle: Mm.
  Shonda Ziegler: Not
  Amber Thompson: A cat
  Shonda Ziegler: quite
  Amber Thompson: who
  Shonda Ziegler: yet
  Amber Thompson: had an
  Shonda Ziegler: through.
  Amber Thompson: accident or
  Beatrice Richard: Why a cat?
  Shonda Ziegler: Uh yeah I dunno. They're my favourite pets.
  Beatrice Richard: You have some uh?
  Shonda Ziegler: Uh I have colour already. Yeah I'm not so good at drawing with this kind of st Oh shit. Um
  Beatrice Richard: The pen, yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Excuse my language.
  Beatrice Richard: Sure.
  Shonda Ziegler: I don't know how to draw its face. But you get the idea. It's
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: a cat. It's
  Beatrice Richard: Alright.
  Shonda Ziegler: my favourite uh pet animal, 'cause they're cute, they're independent and cuddly, I dunno.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: That's it. Or do I
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: need to use more colours and
  Beatrice Richard: I think it's okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: You get idea
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: right? Okay um we have a financial aspect to this project. Um we can sell them at twenty five Euros. Uh the aim is to reach uh uh to sell as much as fifty million Euros. Uh that's quite a big amount of money. And the production cost should be the half of the selling price.
  Shonda Ziegler: So we have
  Beatrice Richard: Okay
  Shonda Ziegler: to s
  Beatrice Richard: now it's time for some discussion.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh
  Lois Hinkle: What uh what uh do you want to discuss?
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. We should get started.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Yep.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh I'm taking notes.
  Amber Thompson: Okay. Great.
  Beatrice Richard: Um we each have a specific task, as I saw in my mail.
  Shonda Ziegler: Mm-hmm.
  Beatrice Richard: I
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: didn't know if you received the same mail. Yeah?
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: I guess so.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: so the um uh this industrati Industrial Designer should produce a working design. Am I correct?
  Shonda Ziegler: True.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay. Uh Lois Hinkle should specify the technical functions. Right?
  Lois Hinkle: Yep.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah? And the Marketing uh Expert should come up with user requirements.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh did any of you already do some work on this part or
  Shonda Ziegler: Well I started making an overview for myself, um what I had to do, 'cause we have three design steps and in every step I have
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: a s specific task to perform or whatever.
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: So I had to uh, I dunno, make an overview for myself about
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: what I have to do, and kind of let it work in to get ideas about
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm. And
  Shonda Ziegler: well how
  Beatrice Richard: do you
  Shonda Ziegler: I
  Beatrice Richard: have
  Shonda Ziegler: have to fill
  Beatrice Richard: any
  Shonda Ziegler: it.
  Beatrice Richard: ideas about the product
  Shonda Ziegler: Well I started
  Beatrice Richard: uh so far?
  Shonda Ziegler: I started with the first phase, I think was the functional.
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: And uh let's see I had to focus on the working design, which
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: you said. How does the apparatus work? And well I basically had two points. Uh according to the coffee uh machine example,
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: I have batteries to supply energy, and we ye use button presses to activate or deactivate certain functions on
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: the T_V_.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: And that's basically all I have so far.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah I got another point. It uses infrared light
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: to communicate
  Lois Hinkle: Wireless
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: the
  Lois Hinkle: uh
  Beatrice Richard: signal
  Lois Hinkle: huh.
  Beatrice Richard: to
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: the
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: T_V_ apparatus or stereo.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: So that's very common.
  Lois Hinkle: Uh it's uh some buttons for for the on off function. You d you already told that. And for the changing up to the to all the channels and changing the volume. That
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: are the the basic options for a remote control.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah I kept it global 'cause that it activates or deactivates specific functions, 'cause
  Lois Hinkle: Okay,
  Shonda Ziegler: I wasn't
  Lois Hinkle: yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: thinking yet about that. I mean, you wanna ch ch flip
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: the channel but you might wanna use teletext also.
  Lois Hinkle: Yep.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: I dunno what the word is in English. Uh
  Beatrice Richard: Same I believe.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh and what did Amber Thompson do?
  Amber Thompson: Uh well from a marketing uh perspective, um well the function des design phase uh consists out of the user requirements.
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: Um what needs and desires are to be fulfilled? So there are a few means to reach that um by by doing research
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: uh to see what existing products are there out in the market. I mean, what functions do they
  Beatrice Richard: Mm.
  Amber Thompson: have. Um especially what are their shortcomings? Are there any
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: new functions uh which can be added to our
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: product? Um therefore we have to to do some internet search.
  Beatrice Richard: Yep.
  Amber Thompson: For example for um well what kind of applications do current remote controls support, and what are f featur features of uh current and future televisions?
  Beatrice Richard: Yes.
  Amber Thompson: So we can see uh what needs to be supported. Um and we can interview current users and future users. What w what would
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: they like to see uh on a new remote control?
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Um especially for future users, uh I'm thinking of early adopters, because they they use new technology first,
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: and they play with a lot of tools and stuff so maybe they have some good ideas to uh
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: to add.
  Beatrice Richard: And you can get that information?
  Amber Thompson: I think I can get that information, yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay. That
  Amber Thompson: So
  Beatrice Richard: would be very handy.
  Amber Thompson: yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Um but have you any idea so far as what uh the user requirements are?
  Amber Thompson: No n not specifically. More
  Beatrice Richard: No?
  Amber Thompson: to how to get them and
  Beatrice Richard: No
  Lois Hinkle: I
  Beatrice Richard: okay.
  Lois Hinkle: got some uh requirements it has
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah?
  Amber Thompson: Yeah?
  Lois Hinkle: uh it has to be user-friendly.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Of course.
  Shonda Ziegler: Obviously.
  Lois Hinkle: Uh really easy to use buttons, not not uh very small buttons, but not the the also the big big buttons, but just normal buttons. It has to be a small unit. It has to be uh yeah, you can take it with you uh everywhere in in your house. So it has n has not to be l yeah, gigantic uh
  Beatrice Richard: Big,
  Lois Hinkle: machine.
  Beatrice Richard: mm-hmm.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Uh and a and a good uh zapping range.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh what do you mean by that?
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Uh the distance uh from your television to your uh remote control has to be, uh yeah um yeah, quite a big distance.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: It has to be capable for zapping uh
  Amber Thompson: From the other end of the
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: room or something? Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay um Well I don't think I have anything more to add at the moment. Um I think the best is to go to work.
  Shonda Ziegler: Whoa. Is that you or
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: alright.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Any more points to discuss?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. I think we can go ahead with what we have. I will summarise the things we discussed and put it in the project folder. Uh the use of Shonda Ziegler can work on the working design, etcetera etcetera. And it seems you get more information by email.
  Amber Thompson: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: So
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: that was it for Amber Thompson.
  Amber Thompson: 'Kay. Thanks.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh
  Lois Hinkle: Are you going to put the the notes on the
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah,
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: in the project
  Amber Thompson: The pro
  Beatrice Richard: folder.
  Amber Thompson: okay.
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: I'm writing very fast.
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: Hope it's readable.
  Amber Thompson: Uh.
  Lois Hinkle: Yep.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay
  Amber Thompson: I guess
  Beatrice Richard: um
  Amber Thompson: so.
  Beatrice Richard: anything more you want to add to the discussion?
  Shonda Ziegler: Well no I'm just a bit wondering what we're gonna do the next uh
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah. Do we only have
  Shonda Ziegler: session?
  Lois Hinkle: to to do uh phase one, the functional design uh?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. Because then we have a
  Lois Hinkle: After that we are going to the conceptual uh
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah. We're just
  Beatrice Richard: Y
  Amber Thompson: working
  Beatrice Richard: you
  Amber Thompson: the three
  Beatrice Richard: do some
  Amber Thompson: phases.
  Beatrice Richard: individual work, we have meeting, individual work, meeting. And at the end of the day we have a final meeting. And then I have to prepare uh I have to defend our design, so make it good.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah
  Amber Thompson: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: okay. We'll do our
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: best.
  Beatrice Richard: I
  Amber Thompson: Better
  Beatrice Richard: depend
  Amber Thompson: make it
  Beatrice Richard: on you.
  Shonda Ziegler: I am gonna work on the conceptual design already 'cause
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah?
  Shonda Ziegler: yeah it's
  Beatrice Richard: If
  Shonda Ziegler: fairly
  Beatrice Richard: you can mix
  Shonda Ziegler: important
  Beatrice Richard: it it's okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: to know what kind of components we want
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: to put in.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Do we I mean, is it gonna be a multimedia control centre? Do we want to be able to use the video recorder
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: with it?
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: That is my question also because like
  Beatrice Richard: Well
  Amber Thompson: new
  Beatrice Richard: I
  Amber Thompson: new
  Beatrice Richard: think
  Amber Thompson: functions
  Beatrice Richard: that is the user
  Amber Thompson: Requirements.
  Beatrice Richard: requirements part.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: As to what
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: they want.
  Shonda Ziegler: True.
  Beatrice Richard: Uh do they want all those functions on
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: that small
  Shonda Ziegler: But but we
  Amber Thompson: Unit.
  Shonda Ziegler: need good communication
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: about this stuff, 'cause I have to f put the components into the design.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Lois Hinkle: I would
  Shonda Ziegler: So
  Lois Hinkle: first
  Shonda Ziegler: if
  Lois Hinkle: m
  Shonda Ziegler: I don't know what
  Amber Thompson: Yeah
  Shonda Ziegler: components
  Amber Thompson: well
  Shonda Ziegler: to put in,
  Amber Thompson: I I was
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah
  Shonda Ziegler: it's kind
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: of
  Beatrice Richard: I
  Shonda Ziegler: hard.
  Beatrice Richard: understand.
  Lois Hinkle: I I think we have first to start with the basic functions
  Amber Thompson: Yeah
  Lois Hinkle: and we can uh
  Amber Thompson: well
  Beatrice Richard: You
  Lois Hinkle: expand
  Beatrice Richard: can
  Amber Thompson: like
  Beatrice Richard: always
  Amber Thompson: l
  Lois Hinkle: them.
  Beatrice Richard: add
  Amber Thompson: li
  Beatrice Richard: a
  Amber Thompson: like
  Beatrice Richard: few
  Amber Thompson: some
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: like some some remotes who are out there, which I know, there's one button which is very easy to switch between devices.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: So you can switch to your video and
  Beatrice Richard: Hmm,
  Amber Thompson: then
  Beatrice Richard: the
  Amber Thompson: the same
  Beatrice Richard: C_D_
  Amber Thompson: buttons
  Beatrice Richard: player.
  Amber Thompson: control your video.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: And another function I'll think of switch to your media centre, because that's getting very popular.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah
  Amber Thompson: And
  Shonda Ziegler: so
  Amber Thompson: then use your Windows media centre under your T_V_ with the same remote control.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: So
  Shonda Ziegler: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: with the switch, one single switch
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: I I know what you mean, but you'll ne need several other buttons for a video
  Amber Thompson: S
  Shonda Ziegler: player. You need a play
  Beatrice Richard: Mm-hmm.
  Shonda Ziegler: and a forw fast forward and a stop
  Amber Thompson: Yeah
  Shonda Ziegler: function.
  Amber Thompson: records
  Shonda Ziegler: And
  Amber Thompson: and
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Shonda Ziegler: you
  Amber Thompson: stuff
  Shonda Ziegler: you
  Amber Thompson: like
  Shonda Ziegler: don't
  Amber Thompson: that.
  Shonda Ziegler: need that for a T_V_.
  Amber Thompson: No.
  Shonda Ziegler: And and for a t uh teletext
  Beatrice Richard: You need additional
  Shonda Ziegler: you need
  Beatrice Richard: yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: additional buttons as well, so
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: I kind of need
  Beatrice Richard: Uh
  Shonda Ziegler: to know what we uh need.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Whatever, I'll just put my ideas in uh
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: in here and then we can
  Amber Thompson: In
  Shonda Ziegler: discuss
  Amber Thompson: the project
  Shonda Ziegler: it
  Amber Thompson: uh
  Shonda Ziegler: with the next uh
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. We could just start with the assumption
  Shonda Ziegler: meeting.
  Beatrice Richard: that's only for T_V_ and video. And um reserve the possibility to add
  Shonda Ziegler: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: other features. So
  Shonda Ziegler: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: we have a basic starting point and you can always extend that so make sure it's extendible.
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: it it has yeah it has to be user-friendly. So it's hasn't it's yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Th the least amount of
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: functions possible so it's
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: easier to get to know
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: how it
  Lois Hinkle: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: I
  Beatrice Richard: works etcetera.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: understand. Yeah.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah? Okay
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Amber Thompson: Yes.
  Beatrice Richard: and uh I'll see you again uh when the computer tells us to.
  Shonda Ziegler: Yeah.
  Lois Hinkle: Can we
  Amber Thompson: Half
  Lois Hinkle: leave now
  Amber Thompson: an hour.
  Lois Hinkle: or
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah, you're di dismissed.
  Shonda Ziegler: Thanks.
  Amber Thompson: You're fired.
  Beatrice Richard: Not yet.
  Amber Thompson: No.
  Lois Hinkle: Mm.
  Shonda Ziegler: Alright.
  Beatrice Richard: Okay.
  Amber Thompson: Alright let's move on.
  Beatrice Richard: Let's see what we got to do.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah.
  Shonda Ziegler: See you later.
  Amber Thompson: Yeah
  Lois Hinkle: Okay.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah.
  Amber Thompson: see you later.
  Lois Hinkle: Good luck.
  Beatrice Richard: Yeah. Thank you.
  Amber Thompson: Well good luck.
