Extracted Content: Kathleen Dooley: Okay. Uh door is closed. Well, begin. Because
  Dana Holden: I'm listening.
  Kathleen Dooley: if we have as much time as the last uh meeting,
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Kathleen Dooley: we'll have to hurry up. Um well I'll start with the presentation again,
  Dana Holden: Great.
  Kathleen Dooley: the agenda. Yo. So. Uh This one I think. Uh yeah. Well alright. Um well, I'll show you the notes. It's not as uh interesting as it should be because we just uh had the meeting, but I'll show them. We'll get your presentations on the conceptual design. Um Then we'll have to dec decide about the control, the remote control concepts.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Kathleen Dooley: I've put a f uh a file in the project management folder, which says exactly uh what kind of decisions we should take. So this time we exactly know what to decide about.
  Dana Holden: Alright, great.
  Kathleen Dooley: And then we'll close again.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh Well these are some examples, but we'll talk about them later. We'll first look at your uh presentations.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright? Walter will uh start again
  Dana Holden: Yeah, great.
  Kathleen Dooley: this time? Yo.
  Dana Holden: Alright, Trendwatch.
  Kathleen Dooley: 'Kay.
  Dana Holden: Right. I will speak about uh latest trends trends, latest fashion updates, and uh things we must not do.
  Kathleen Dooley: 'Kay.
  Dana Holden: Uh the trends. It's very important that uh the control is fancy looking and good uh feeling. Uh this because of our last model was very functional, but it uh people didn't like that, so our new mo model must be very good-looking. That's uh uh have to
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm
  Dana Holden: take a look at.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Dana Holden: And uh the feeling has to be very great. Also the menus and things like that they have to they have to feel great.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Dana Holden: Um there's a minus uh two times here, because this is the most important point. This is uh two times as less
  Kathleen Dooley: Less.
  Dana Holden: important, and uh same for this one. Um, technological technological innovations, that's uh regarded very highly too. Uh such as an uh L_C_D_ screen, uh speech uh acknowledgement, as we uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Well, yeah.
  Dana Holden: talked about earlier. So we have to have uh something like that, like we uh
  Kathleen Dooley: L_C_D_ and our uh our fronts.
  Dana Holden: Right. Uh the last point is easy to use. Well I think that uh speaks for s for itself. I don't know who's uh who's going to look at that.
  Meredith Sproull: Easy to use?
  Kathleen Dooley: Well,
  Dana Holden: Yeah?
  Kathleen Dooley: easy
  Meredith Sproull: I think
  Kathleen Dooley: to use
  Meredith Sproull: that's your
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: ta
  Kathleen Dooley: s is a bit uh contradictionary with the first uh Functional is not an issue,
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: and
  Dana Holden: I know.
  Kathleen Dooley: then easy to use. Well we have to choose one of them.
  Dana Holden: I think we have to go for the first
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: one. It's the most
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Dana Holden: important one. So we have to uh take that one.
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay.
  Dana Holden: So it it it isn't very important that that it works easy.
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Dana Holden: But
  Lakita Stowers: something
  Dana Holden: it
  Lakita Stowers: fancy
  Dana Holden: has
  Lakita Stowers: looking
  Dana Holden: to look
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Dana Holden: great.
  Lakita Stowers: be can be easy to use.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. We'll we'll look at uh.
  Dana Holden: We'll see.
  Meredith Sproull: You Yeah. Yeah, yeah, you can make a very complicated uh uh remote anyway, so ease
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: of use
  Dana Holden: right.
  Meredith Sproull: It's not
  Dana Holden: But
  Meredith Sproull: a very
  Dana Holden: the most
  Meredith Sproull: comp
  Dana Holden: important
  Meredith Sproull: complicated
  Dana Holden: thing
  Meredith Sproull: device.
  Dana Holden: is that it looks great and people say wow, that's real great uh great concept.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: 'Kay.
  Dana Holden: Alright. Uh these are the new colours of this year. So it must be very bright, very colourful. People like this. So we we have to think uh in this direction. So
  Kathleen Dooley: So
  Dana Holden: i set your mind to it.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Dana Holden: Findings? Fashion update? Fruit and vegetables are cool. I am told.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh you
  Dana Holden: The group
  Meredith Sproull: think?
  Dana Holden: we are targeting is uh very pleased with fruit and vegetables. So we we we might cons consider in front of uh in in that sort of uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah,
  Dana Holden: way.
  Kathleen Dooley: well
  Lakita Stowers: Bananas.
  Dana Holden: Uh furthermore uh material, that's your part, should be very strong. I was thinking of something like uh well uh iron plate over it, maybe in a
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Dana Holden: colour or something, that
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: looks so f really flashy but it it is also strong. And
  Kathleen Dooley: B
  Dana Holden: that's uh also for the younger public.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well the the handy thing about our fronts is that we can follow these trends e ev every year. Th this year it's fruits but next year it's it's
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: something
  Dana Holden: that's
  Kathleen Dooley: totally
  Dana Holden: great.
  Kathleen Dooley: different.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: But I think we can all make the the fronts of titanium or something uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Dana Holden: really thin. So it looks very heavy but you can still uh use it very easily.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yep, alright.
  Dana Holden: Well, the don'ts. Older people like dark colours and simple shapes. Well we don't want uh older people, we want young people. So uh we're gonna turn that around. We're
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Dana Holden: gonna have real uh cool shapes and lots of colours. Right?
  Kathleen Dooley: Wood
  Dana Holden: Okay.
  Kathleen Dooley: is popular. Aha.
  Dana Holden: We don't want wood.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah
  Meredith Sproull: among the old
  Kathleen Dooley: yeah
  Meredith Sproull: people,
  Kathleen Dooley: yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Dana Holden: Old people. So, that's it for Dana Holden.
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright. Nice, uh well show us.
  Meredith Sproull: Right, I am going to you the design Uh again I have uh put up the specification properties. This uh so um uh the different uh components of the of of the device. And the materials? Um I have heard several things, so I uh I'll have to change that on the way. But uh the case? Uh I suggested uh in the previous meeting hard plastic. But uh as you
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: indicated
  Dana Holden: we should change
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Dana Holden: that.
  Meredith Sproull: it should be strong. It should feel strong. So maybe plastic is not uh sufficient. We should
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Meredith Sproull: move
  Kathleen Dooley: maybe
  Meredith Sproull: to uh
  Kathleen Dooley: it
  Meredith Sproull: something
  Kathleen Dooley: it it is, but it doesn't look strong. So maybe
  Meredith Sproull: Well yeah. Y Hard plastic i is of course uh pretty pretty tough, but it doesn't have a really really tough
  Dana Holden: No no no.
  Meredith Sproull: look.
  Kathleen Dooley: But we still
  Meredith Sproull: So
  Kathleen Dooley: have to look at our price of course. Because
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: Also
  Kathleen Dooley: if we
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: want an L_C_D_ uh window etcetera uh
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm. But we'll return to that.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah?
  Meredith Sproull: Uh the buttons of course rubber, I think everyone agrees. And electrical cables, copper is all pretty basic stuff. The chips made of silicon, I guess. I think that's the best uh way to do it. And infra infrared l LED is uh just a simple bulb. Then I've uh had a few findings, made a few findings. Uh the target audience product style. Um it's uh um generally the case that uh senior and wealthy people above uh forty five years old uh like, as you said, uh particularly the traditional materials as such as wood and materials such as that. They also like straightforward shapes and luxurious style. But of course that's not our uh things this. So this is things we must not do.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Meredith Sproull: And then we have uh young uh and dynamic uh people, which is of course our uh group, the people we aim at. Um under forty five years old. Uh they like soft materials uh with primary colours. Soft materials is of course uh agai again a bit a contradiction with uh our uh material choice of what you said, that uh it should be hard an and and and and strong looking.
  Dana Holden: Mm. Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: But they like soft
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: materials, uh so we might uh we have to consider that. And also they like curved round shapes. So not uh too formal like like uh the older people want. And if uh also a finding but not very ap applicable here, that sports and gaming devices such as uh discmans for jogging and that those kind of devices, gaming devices, should define the characteristics of the device. But uh since we don't have a really a sports or gaming device, so we don't really have to consider that.
  Kathleen Dooley: Sports uh, they're uh that uh are
  Lakita Stowers: Soccer
  Kathleen Dooley: accessible
  Lakita Stowers: fronts.
  Kathleen Dooley: on on your L_C_D_ uh window uh
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Kathleen Dooley: Huh?
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Kathleen Dooley: That's nice.
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm.
  Meredith Sproull: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: All
  Meredith Sproull: I also
  Kathleen Dooley: the
  Meredith Sproull: have
  Kathleen Dooley: results?
  Meredith Sproull: um
  Dana Holden: We keep coming back to the fronts.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: several examples of uh styles, so you can get a clear picture of uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: what I mean. Uh these are the basic uh older older peoples' stuff.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: It was not very uh interesting uh, very classical looking, but that's
  Kathleen Dooley: Mm-hmm.
  Meredith Sproull: n that's not what we want. We have
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm.
  Meredith Sproull: these kind of things. I don't know what exactly they are. It
  Kathleen Dooley: Nai.
  Meredith Sproull: looks
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh
  Meredith Sproull: like Well
  Kathleen Dooley: no.
  Meredith Sproull: you know uh you recognise the shapes, it's very primary colours, uh bright colours and uh round shapes. You also uh see uh this device, it's not very round and
  Dana Holden: Fruity.
  Meredith Sproull: Fruity of course.
  Dana Holden: Fruity.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah, it uh
  Kathleen Dooley: It's t terrible.
  Meredith Sproull: That's true.
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: And uh well round shapes, primary colours. You can see it all here. And of course
  Kathleen Dooley: Hmm?
  Meredith Sproull: uh this famous device. I think as you know something uh some
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: devices
  Kathleen Dooley: alright.
  Meredith Sproull: like this. So
  Dana Holden: Well
  Meredith Sproull: to give
  Dana Holden: it's
  Meredith Sproull: you an idea
  Dana Holden: got
  Meredith Sproull: of uh
  Dana Holden: a strong look, this.
  Meredith Sproull: This has a strong look. Although
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: it's plastic, it's
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: it's
  Dana Holden: it still
  Meredith Sproull: grey
  Dana Holden: has a strong
  Meredith Sproull: to
  Dana Holden: look.
  Meredith Sproull: to
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: to give it iron look.
  Kathleen Dooley: And it's round.
  Meredith Sproull: That's uh
  Dana Holden: But then you are losing your fruity colours.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah. Well we have to make
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Meredith Sproull: a
  Kathleen Dooley: you can make th th th that middle ring can you you can make another colour.
  Dana Holden: That's true.
  Kathleen Dooley: So uh those
  Meredith Sproull: Well we
  Kathleen Dooley: kind
  Meredith Sproull: can't
  Kathleen Dooley: of
  Meredith Sproull: really
  Kathleen Dooley: things
  Meredith Sproull: make
  Kathleen Dooley: you can
  Meredith Sproull: a round
  Kathleen Dooley: you can combine.
  Meredith Sproull: uh a round remote control. I don't think that's very practical, but
  Kathleen Dooley: No, it isn't.
  Meredith Sproull: But uh it's important to to uh to think about
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay.
  Meredith Sproull: the colour. Because if we make it grey or or silvery looking, it it does make it a lot more uh does make it looking a lot more stronger.
  Dana Holden: Yeah
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Meredith Sproull: 'Cause
  Dana Holden: but
  Meredith Sproull: if you look at
  Dana Holden: the
  Meredith Sproull: this, it it doesn't look very very strong, becau But this is plastic,
  Dana Holden: But
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Dana Holden: it
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Dana Holden: doesn't
  Meredith Sproull: this too,
  Dana Holden: have to
  Meredith Sproull: but
  Dana Holden: look strong. The the results are, the feel of the material is expected to be strongy.
  Meredith Sproull: The feel?
  Dana Holden: The
  Meredith Sproull: Uh
  Dana Holden: feel.
  Meredith Sproull: alright. Well
  Kathleen Dooley: So, if
  Lakita Stowers: And
  Kathleen Dooley: you
  Lakita Stowers: it
  Kathleen Dooley: ti
  Lakita Stowers: it doesn't have to be strong, also.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Dana Holden: Nah yeah the feel
  Kathleen Dooley: You you
  Lakita Stowers: Only the feel.
  Kathleen Dooley: Maybe you should have uh some some coloured titanium or something. So it it looks pretty but it feels strong.
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Lakita Stowers: Oh.
  Dana Holden: I
  Meredith Sproull: And
  Dana Holden: agree.
  Meredith Sproull: I Then I have some more findings. Um uh about the energy energy source of the of the device, uh I uh suggest uh the basic battery. I uh got some other um uh uh energy sources of course. But solar energy is not very practical inside a house, because you don't have a have a lot of uh sun. And uh kinetic and and and dynamos are are not very practical, I think, for uh for a simple remote, that's a bit, oh, that's a bit uh
  Kathleen Dooley: No titanium.
  Meredith Sproull: That's a bit uh much. Uh the disadvantage of that that you can use no titanium. That that's the information I received. If you use the curved case, uh a curved case, double curved then you
  Kathleen Dooley: What do you exactly
  Meredith Sproull: can't use titanium.
  Kathleen Dooley: mean with double curved?
  Meredith Sproull: Now uh this uh to give it a more modern look. And uh now the the shape, yeah, a curved case. Um yeah I think uh sort of triangle-shaped bottom or something. Uh a more modern look not plain, long box style, but
  Kathleen Dooley: Double curved?
  Dana Holden: I dunno.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: It
  Meredith Sproull: I'll draw
  Kathleen Dooley: it mean
  Meredith Sproull: it, but
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah, well
  Meredith Sproull: maybe
  Kathleen Dooley: okay.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: later. And it makes uh it gives it a more u user friendly shape, than if you have uh. Um anyway Um f as uh for the buttons, simple push buttons. No uh otherwi uh no um difficult scroll things or some uh things like that, because it makes more complex and expensive. And, uh as we agreed, we don't use a speaker or a sensor or um uh speak uh speech uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah right.
  Meredith Sproull: controlled device. Because it makes it also more complex and expensive. But we do use an L_C_D_ screen, so we uh we do have to consider uh of we have to use a more advanced chip, which is more complex and expensive. But
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Meredith Sproull: It's worth the trouble I think,
  Lakita Stowers: The buttons
  Meredith Sproull: because
  Lakita Stowers: can be made of an uh a soft material. Because people like that.
  Kathleen Dooley: This soft material thing
  Meredith Sproull: Uh rubber
  Kathleen Dooley: from
  Meredith Sproull: is a
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: soft material, I guess.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Lakita Stowers: Right.
  Meredith Sproull: soft
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: enough. So that's uh basically what I
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: want to talk about.
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay. We will take that. And then uh Mike?
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah. Well um nah the method um we will um include the buttons as we discussed uh earlier. Um an L_C_D_ s screen will be implemented. Um we must decide where, this meeting. Um there are new developments in speech recognition um systems, um and they are already being uh used on uh coffee machines. And um well they're cheap, so we could use them
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh
  Lakita Stowers: now. Um
  Kathleen Dooley: That's interesting.
  Lakita Stowers: it's not really speech recognition, it's more um like you can um talk to the chip, uh record the message and record an answer, and then once you uh talk to the remote, then um he will a answer with the the prerecorded message that you left. So if
  Meredith Sproull: Oh,
  Dana Holden: Oh
  Lakita Stowers: I say
  Dana Holden: okay.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah, I understand. Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: hi Mike, and you have recorded uh hi Mike back, then you
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay.
  Lakita Stowers: will get that.
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Kathleen Dooley: But you can also say that, when you say something, it does some function.
  Lakita Stowers: No it doesn't
  Dana Holden: No.
  Lakita Stowers: does not
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh.
  Lakita Stowers: do anything. But
  Kathleen Dooley: That's
  Dana Holden: But that
  Kathleen Dooley: a bit
  Lakita Stowers: i
  Dana Holden: that
  Lakita Stowers: it's
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Dana Holden: makes
  Lakita Stowers: just
  Dana Holden: it cheap.
  Lakita Stowers: a
  Dana Holden: It's
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: it's
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Dana Holden: just
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Lakita Stowers: it's
  Dana Holden: a an
  Lakita Stowers: it's cheap.
  Dana Holden: extra
  Kathleen Dooley: I
  Dana Holden: function,
  Kathleen Dooley: understand.
  Dana Holden: and it's cheap.
  Kathleen Dooley: But it has no functionality
  Dana Holden: No
  Kathleen Dooley: for our remote
  Dana Holden: but
  Lakita Stowers: No but
  Kathleen Dooley: at
  Lakita Stowers: that's
  Kathleen Dooley: all.
  Lakita Stowers: the gadget they want,
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: or the
  Dana Holden: right.
  Lakita Stowers: gimmicks.
  Meredith Sproull: But it
  Dana Holden: Young
  Meredith Sproull: it's
  Dana Holden: people
  Meredith Sproull: n
  Dana Holden: love
  Meredith Sproull: nice
  Dana Holden: them.
  Meredith Sproull: for young
  Lakita Stowers: Yes,
  Meredith Sproull: people. They
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Meredith Sproull: like
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: gadgets. Yeah.
  Dana Holden: ple
  Lakita Stowers: we should really uh include that one, I think.
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Meredith Sproull: If
  Kathleen Dooley: Hmm.
  Meredith Sproull: it's
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Meredith Sproull: cheap. Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Well, as I said uh earlier I think the uh L_C_D_ screen should be uh positioned at the lower end of the remote. Um the buttons for screen width and general settings and uh and that kind of stuff um we can also do let that kind of functions um be shown in the L_C_D_ screen,
  Kathleen Dooley: So you
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: put a menu
  Lakita Stowers: instead
  Kathleen Dooley: in the
  Lakita Stowers: of
  Kathleen Dooley: L_C_D_?
  Lakita Stowers: uh extra buttons. I think young people and yeah w well every user would like that. Um the buttons um should be positioned uh positioned the same way as they are on a, well, conventional remote, I think. For the learnability and uh well to keep it recognisable. A voice recognition can be uh implemented. And uh I drew an example, but it did not work quite the well uh the
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Lakita Stowers: way I
  Meredith Sproull: Can you
  Lakita Stowers: wanted
  Meredith Sproull: draw
  Dana Holden: How
  Meredith Sproull: it
  Lakita Stowers: it
  Meredith Sproull: now
  Lakita Stowers: to do.
  Meredith Sproull: of uh
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm?
  Meredith Sproull: Can
  Kathleen Dooley: Ah.
  Dana Holden: How
  Meredith Sproull: you
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Meredith Sproull: draw it now?
  Lakita Stowers: I have the I can draw it again, and I know what I did wrong. I didn't tick the note bo box in
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Lakita Stowers: the.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Dana Holden: How do you uh uh give input to the menu on the L_C_D_ screen?
  Lakita Stowers: Um with the uh the up and down and and well
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Lakita Stowers: buttons
  Dana Holden: So you have
  Lakita Stowers: and
  Dana Holden: a
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Dana Holden: menu button, and then you can go up
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: But
  Dana Holden: and down.
  Lakita Stowers: I will draw what
  Kathleen Dooley: then
  Lakita Stowers: I
  Kathleen Dooley: we should
  Lakita Stowers: had drawn
  Kathleen Dooley: also have
  Lakita Stowers: on
  Kathleen Dooley: an
  Lakita Stowers: the screen.
  Kathleen Dooley: uh an Okay button.
  Dana Holden: Yeah right.
  Lakita Stowers: Yes. Um I shall draw this.
  Meredith Sproull: button, yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: If it uh works.
  Kathleen Dooley: Just uh There is already a blank. Yes? So
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Mm so have I. Nah.
  Dana Holden: You have to push hard.
  Meredith Sproull: I suggest a banana shape. Because
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: of the fruity uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: fashion.
  Kathleen Dooley: No m
  Meredith Sproull: Yellow
  Kathleen Dooley: Next
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Kathleen Dooley: year that's out.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah alright, yeah. Just a hunch.
  Lakita Stowers: Well these little buttons are a bit difficult to uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: draw uh
  Meredith Sproull: Those are the
  Lakita Stowers: correct.
  Meredith Sproull: the cha the channel buttons of course?
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah just uh the numbers.
  Meredith Sproull: And then below is the L_C_D_ screen?
  Lakita Stowers: These these will be bigger in the the real
  Meredith Sproull: Alright,
  Lakita Stowers: design.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: This must be the Okay button used to uh interact with the L_C_D_
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Lakita Stowers: screen. And with this you can uh,
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: yes, go to through the menus and that can Um
  Dana Holden: You've
  Lakita Stowers: the video button should be uh an
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Lakita Stowers: apart button, because you want it to uh t, yeah,
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Lakita Stowers: to use it fast within one uh click.
  Kathleen Dooley: And
  Dana Holden: And you
  Kathleen Dooley: what's
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Kathleen Dooley: the
  Dana Holden: you
  Kathleen Dooley: menu
  Dana Holden: need
  Kathleen Dooley: button?
  Dana Holden: a you
  Lakita Stowers: it's
  Dana Holden: need a speaker. For
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm?
  Dana Holden: the
  Lakita Stowers: This button can also be the Menu button, we use in the
  Kathleen Dooley: But
  Lakita Stowers: menus
  Kathleen Dooley: how
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: did
  Lakita Stowers: we we can
  Kathleen Dooley: How do
  Lakita Stowers: add
  Kathleen Dooley: you get
  Lakita Stowers: another
  Kathleen Dooley: out
  Lakita Stowers: button
  Kathleen Dooley: of the menu
  Lakita Stowers: here,
  Kathleen Dooley: then?
  Lakita Stowers: but
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. Maybe I you could
  Meredith Sproull: Uh
  Kathleen Dooley: j
  Meredith Sproull: by
  Kathleen Dooley: just
  Meredith Sproull: pe
  Kathleen Dooley: do
  Meredith Sproull: pressing
  Kathleen Dooley: an an
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Kathleen Dooley: exit
  Meredith Sproull: menu button
  Kathleen Dooley: with Okay.
  Meredith Sproull: again. By pressing
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh
  Meredith Sproull: the menu button again, you
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: go uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: out. It's usual the the the d kind
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes,
  Meredith Sproull: of
  Kathleen Dooley: well but
  Meredith Sproull: the way
  Kathleen Dooley: bec because
  Meredith Sproull: it
  Kathleen Dooley: when you
  Meredith Sproull: works.
  Kathleen Dooley: push Menu
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah?
  Kathleen Dooley: you get in, and
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah?
  Kathleen Dooley: then you have to push Okay when you get to
  Lakita Stowers: Ah
  Kathleen Dooley: a choice.
  Lakita Stowers: right.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: And
  Meredith Sproull: But
  Lakita Stowers: you
  Meredith Sproull: you can
  Lakita Stowers: you
  Meredith Sproull: men you can press menu again to get out.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well that's also the Okay button. That's
  Lakita Stowers: No no,
  Meredith Sproull: No.
  Kathleen Dooley: you
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Kathleen Dooley: you
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Kathleen Dooley: should have
  Lakita Stowers: we should
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Lakita Stowers: uh add uh a extra Menu button and this
  Kathleen Dooley: Or you
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Kathleen Dooley: can
  Lakita Stowers: Okay button.
  Kathleen Dooley: put in the L_C_D_'s uh window an option Get Out.
  Dana Holden: Exit.
  Kathleen Dooley: Exit.
  Lakita Stowers: Ah once you have an extra Menu button, you don't need that that extra option.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well,
  Lakita Stowers: You
  Dana Holden: But
  Lakita Stowers: have
  Kathleen Dooley: it's
  Dana Holden: we
  Kathleen Dooley: just
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Dana Holden: need
  Kathleen Dooley: a
  Dana Holden: a
  Lakita Stowers: redundancy.
  Kathleen Dooley: choice.
  Dana Holden: we need a a recording recording button for the speech uh part. Or don't
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, if we decide to uh to implement that,
  Meredith Sproull: Why
  Lakita Stowers: maybe
  Meredith Sproull: would
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Meredith Sproull: you
  Lakita Stowers: should.
  Meredith Sproull: put it uh then, and where is the recording uh the microphone? Where would
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Meredith Sproull: you put
  Lakita Stowers: they
  Meredith Sproull: it?
  Lakita Stowers: that could be anywhere. That's very small. It could be uh down here.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh-huh.
  Lakita Stowers: Um. Well, not here. I yeah I suggest here. But that's just a little
  Dana Holden: Right, and
  Meredith Sproull: Microphone,
  Dana Holden: spea
  Lakita Stowers: gap.
  Dana Holden: speaker
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: at the back, or something.
  Lakita Stowers: Well the speaker and the microphone, I think, are the same uh little hole thingy.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah I understand.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: but uh we could uh d do, but it's perhaps more expensive, uh the
  Lakita Stowers: Well i
  Meredith Sproull: speaker on the back or something.
  Lakita Stowers: Um there are a all already being implemented in in coffee machines, so they won't be uh very expensive. But
  Kathleen Dooley: Huh?
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah? Okay.
  Lakita Stowers: This is my suggested
  Kathleen Dooley: Well,
  Lakita Stowers: design.
  Kathleen Dooley: okay, alright.
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Kathleen Dooley: Um then let's
  Lakita Stowers: Yes.
  Kathleen Dooley: have a look at the decisions we are going to have to make.
  Lakita Stowers: And oh I think as you can see so, the L_C_D_ screen does look better uh at the lower end, or
  Kathleen Dooley: I'd
  Lakita Stowers: at the bottom.
  Kathleen Dooley: I agree.
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: But
  Dana Holden: fine.
  Kathleen Dooley: Fine.
  Dana Holden: Move on.
  Meredith Sproull: Well yeah yeah yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Oh, um I had some uh examples.
  Meredith Sproull: I can live with
  Lakita Stowers: You
  Meredith Sproull: it.
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes?
  Lakita Stowers: uh But I did not like it very much, but Well these are
  Kathleen Dooley: Too big.
  Lakita Stowers: quite obvious, very ugly remote.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: They do
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Meredith Sproull: they don't look fruity enough.
  Dana Holden: Nei
  Lakita Stowers: No,
  Dana Holden: They're n they're not
  Kathleen Dooley: They're
  Lakita Stowers: well
  Dana Holden: trendy.
  Kathleen Dooley: all
  Lakita Stowers: th
  Kathleen Dooley: black.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah. Well not all.
  Kathleen Dooley: Hey, that one I like.
  Lakita Stowers: Uh
  Meredith Sproull: Tho
  Lakita Stowers: this is
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah
  Lakita Stowers: for children
  Meredith Sproull: those
  Lakita Stowers: but
  Dana Holden: It doesn't
  Lakita Stowers: th
  Dana Holden: look strong.
  Kathleen Dooley: No.
  Lakita Stowers: No.
  Meredith Sproull: But it doesn't uh the
  Lakita Stowers: W but with the colours i it's a
  Kathleen Dooley: The
  Lakita Stowers: bit the way
  Kathleen Dooley: remote.
  Lakita Stowers: we're going to.
  Dana Holden: Yeah right.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah, ok Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Well this is a
  Kathleen Dooley: Terrible.
  Dana Holden: This
  Lakita Stowers: terrible
  Dana Holden: is just crazy.
  Kathleen Dooley: It's it's
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Kathleen Dooley: all
  Lakita Stowers: this
  Kathleen Dooley: too
  Lakita Stowers: looks
  Kathleen Dooley: much
  Meredith Sproull: But it
  Kathleen Dooley: buttons.
  Meredith Sproull: it must
  Kathleen Dooley: Too many
  Meredith Sproull: not look
  Kathleen Dooley: buttons.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: too childish
  Kathleen Dooley: That's
  Meredith Sproull: of course huh?
  Lakita Stowers: This uh these are the L_C_D_ screens. I think we should, if it's um possible, uh one with colours, but
  Dana Holden: Nah th
  Lakita Stowers: I don't know
  Dana Holden: It's
  Kathleen Dooley: Well,
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Dana Holden: too expensive.
  Kathleen Dooley: that's too expensive
  Lakita Stowers: Too expensive?
  Kathleen Dooley: I think.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Alright. Well
  Meredith Sproull: But
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: it Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Nah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. Okay.
  Lakita Stowers: Ha,
  Kathleen Dooley: Huh.
  Lakita Stowers: even more. N
  Kathleen Dooley: Mm no.
  Dana Holden: But
  Kathleen Dooley: 'Kay.
  Dana Holden: are we going for a strange uh form?
  Kathleen Dooley: No,
  Dana Holden: 'Cause
  Kathleen Dooley: not
  Dana Holden: people
  Kathleen Dooley: very
  Dana Holden: like that.
  Kathleen Dooley: strange.
  Meredith Sproull: Not not too strange.
  Dana Holden: Not too strange.
  Meredith Sproull: No.
  Dana Holden: You
  Kathleen Dooley: It still
  Dana Holden: can make
  Kathleen Dooley: has
  Dana Holden: the
  Kathleen Dooley: t
  Dana Holden: the underside, you can make it more round,
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Dana Holden: where
  Kathleen Dooley: Th
  Dana Holden: the L_C_D_ is.
  Kathleen Dooley: a a kind of bridge. So it
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: f falls over the hand. Yeah? Yeah? Yeah.
  Dana Holden: You know?
  Kathleen Dooley: Well I have at home a remote with a bridge. It's just a half round half half circle at And then it falls exactly over the hand, and that's very nice. That's It feels comfortable.
  Dana Holden: Yeah, but people like something uh new
  Meredith Sproull: Exotic
  Dana Holden: you know.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: We
  Dana Holden: different.
  Meredith Sproull: have t Yeah, yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: I will
  Dana Holden: Y
  Meredith Sproull: design
  Dana Holden: yis
  Meredith Sproull: it, we design it later. So we'll get
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: to that later I guess.
  Dana Holden: Great.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah, alright. Um where did I put it?
  Meredith Sproull: The specific shape. The
  Kathleen Dooley: I got this from our friends. So
  Meredith Sproull: Our sources.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh yeah the conceptual design. These are a few examples which we have to decide about. All the the materials from the case, uh the electric cable that's all your uh your side of the story. Um
  Dana Holden: Your bag.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. Um now from the user interface, your uh package? Um where No well, that's more like the buttons where they have to come. And um B a bit of, yeah well, a bit of uh design.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, this is what we've just done.
  Meredith Sproull: But
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes,
  Meredith Sproull: uh we
  Lakita Stowers: Right?
  Kathleen Dooley: but
  Meredith Sproull: should
  Kathleen Dooley: we have
  Meredith Sproull: decide
  Kathleen Dooley: to decide
  Meredith Sproull: now.
  Kathleen Dooley: about these now.
  Lakita Stowers: Ah right.
  Dana Holden: Yeah. Materials
  Kathleen Dooley: And uh
  Dana Holden: are the most,
  Kathleen Dooley: the trend-watching.
  Dana Holden: most impor
  Kathleen Dooley: So as you said, fruity is in, well sells good. Wow.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh these things.
  Meredith Sproull: So we have to uh put it in one uh document.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh yes. Um so if we uh go through
  Meredith Sproull: Copy
  Kathleen Dooley: them
  Meredith Sproull: paste uh this story into a into a Word document, and then uh put the answers after the subjects. Yeah. Well we have to decide all these things?
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah but all these examples are uh of a coffee machine.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah well uh
  Meredith Sproull: W
  Kathleen Dooley: Why
  Meredith Sproull: we can
  Kathleen Dooley: should
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: I uh
  Meredith Sproull: override them?
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. So
  Meredith Sproull: Well a case? Uh that's Dana Holden. Uh I suggest Well what do I
  Kathleen Dooley: What
  Meredith Sproull: suggest actually?
  Kathleen Dooley: what kind of properties should it have? Well we just listened.
  Lakita Stowers: I
  Meredith Sproull: Uh
  Lakita Stowers: think
  Meredith Sproull: s solid,
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Meredith Sproull: yeah. Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Why don't we um use uh titanium or or a hard, yeah, some kind of metal for the uh the
  Dana Holden: Do you know the
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Dana Holden: new
  Lakita Stowers: whole
  Dana Holden: uh
  Lakita Stowers: remote except the front. That Just like um
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: most
  Dana Holden: No
  Meredith Sproull: I understand.
  Lakita Stowers: cell
  Dana Holden: no
  Lakita Stowers: phones are.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah. So we have titanium.
  Dana Holden: The front is the most important.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah but the non-removable elements of the of the remote, so not the front, could be titanium, to give
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: that uh strong look.
  Kathleen Dooley: You know what?
  Meredith Sproull: And then the front is made of plastic. And you can put that on and off, and switch it.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: But the feel of plastic isn't strong.
  Meredith Sproull: No but you
  Lakita Stowers: No but
  Meredith Sproull: have
  Lakita Stowers: you you
  Meredith Sproull: titanium
  Lakita Stowers: have this
  Meredith Sproull: of course.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh you have
  Dana Holden: Yeah alright,
  Meredith Sproull: the best
  Dana Holden: alright.
  Meredith Sproull: of both worlds.
  Dana Holden: 'Kay.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, you have the re remote in your hand like this. So you feel titanium.
  Meredith Sproull: And of course, yeah, you have the the the plastic front end. But
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: you also have the
  Dana Holden: Fronts
  Meredith Sproull: titanium.
  Dana Holden: are are cheaper than
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: when
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah
  Dana Holden: they're
  Meredith Sproull: of
  Dana Holden: from
  Meredith Sproull: course,
  Dana Holden: plas
  Meredith Sproull: but yeah you have to make a
  Lakita Stowers: And I don't
  Meredith Sproull: decision.
  Lakita Stowers: know if you can make steel just any way you want it to.
  Dana Holden: Yeah, but it it's expensive.
  Meredith Sproull: I guess so. Uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: titanium I sh I think
  Dana Holden: Bendable.
  Meredith Sproull: uh Huh?
  Dana Holden: Bendable.
  Meredith Sproull: Well, well the
  Lakita Stowers: Well any colour
  Meredith Sproull: According to my sources, uh it's it's totally possible to make an entire uh uh uh Titanium is available, and uh we can uh make uh an entire remote out of it, if we
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: want.
  Lakita Stowers: then you you paint it in the colour you want
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: it.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Lakita Stowers: The plastic is
  Dana Holden: Paint spray.
  Lakita Stowers: is the colour you want
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Lakita Stowers: it.
  Dana Holden: Yeah alright.
  Lakita Stowers: So Yeah.
  Dana Holden: So,
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright.
  Dana Holden: we're going for a titanium back and a
  Kathleen Dooley: I've
  Dana Holden: plastic
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Dana Holden: front?
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Meredith Sproull: I think
  Kathleen Dooley: Titanium
  Meredith Sproull: that's a nice
  Kathleen Dooley: back, plastic
  Meredith Sproull: trade-off.
  Kathleen Dooley: front. Okay. Um well I am going to put it in here, uh because we can
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Dana Holden: great.
  Kathleen Dooley: look.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: I
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Um solid feel and trendy look. So material, um hard plastic
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: for
  Meredith Sproull: for
  Kathleen Dooley: the front?
  Meredith Sproull: the front and
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: then titanium for the back. For the non-removable uh part.
  Dana Holden: But then you have the problem, when you have a titanium back, you can't switch it. When you want an other colour on the front, it doesn't match.
  Meredith Sproull: Well
  Dana Holden: You know?
  Meredith Sproull: but
  Lakita Stowers: Well titanium is neutral.
  Meredith Sproull: The titan titanium isn't isn't v very Yeah, i it doesn't uh curves. No uh I nei.
  Dana Holden: I
  Meredith Sproull: Titanium is very
  Dana Holden: understand.
  Meredith Sproull: No no no, but you
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: know
  Dana Holden: yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: b Titanium
  Dana Holden: yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: is very basic colour, and it doesn't
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: really matter if we have a purple front on it or
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: a orange
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Meredith Sproull: front. I dunno if if you disagree,
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Meredith Sproull: but I think
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: it's
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Lakita Stowers: Our customers will
  Meredith Sproull: doesn't
  Lakita Stowers: use
  Meredith Sproull: matter
  Lakita Stowers: those
  Meredith Sproull: very
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Meredith Sproull: much.
  Lakita Stowers: funky uh trendy colours, and they don't
  Meredith Sproull: And even
  Lakita Stowers: use
  Meredith Sproull: if it
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Meredith Sproull: does uh doesn't
  Lakita Stowers: wood.
  Meredith Sproull: match, it will uh People
  Dana Holden: Funky
  Meredith Sproull: like
  Dana Holden: customers.
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Meredith Sproull: mm
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay. And
  Meredith Sproull: colours
  Kathleen Dooley: well
  Meredith Sproull: that
  Kathleen Dooley: the
  Meredith Sproull: don't match.
  Kathleen Dooley: the electrical cable is just normal
  Meredith Sproull: Cop copper
  Kathleen Dooley: uh.
  Meredith Sproull: uh material.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Excuse Dana Holden?
  Lakita Stowers: The electrical cable
  Kathleen Dooley: It's
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah copper
  Kathleen Dooley: from
  Meredith Sproull: i
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: just
  Lakita Stowers: does
  Kathleen Dooley: our
  Meredith Sproull: a
  Kathleen Dooley: coffee
  Meredith Sproull: ba basic
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: No we don't use an electrical cable. Yeah inside, but this is for
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Meredith Sproull: in
  Lakita Stowers: coffee uh machine.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah well inside the remote control we use a
  Kathleen Dooley: Of course.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: couple
  Lakita Stowers: but
  Meredith Sproull: of uh
  Lakita Stowers: that's not what's meant here, I think.
  Dana Holden: Nei. So external.
  Meredith Sproull: Oh external?
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Well A coffee grind doesn't have Na ja. Never mind the coffee grind.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well uh all the all the inside work of our remote is uh standard work. So
  Meredith Sproull: Right?
  Kathleen Dooley: The chip is normal silicon. Uh the buttons are normal, etcetera. Okay?
  Meredith Sproull: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: So that's just easy.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh we decide about that just by looking at our competitors and our earlier uh remotes. The conceptual specification of the user interface? Um well we have our beautiful drawing.
  Lakita Stowers: Well I got a better one here and I will um
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well you can put that in uh
  Lakita Stowers: The shared
  Kathleen Dooley: into
  Lakita Stowers: folder.
  Kathleen Dooley: the shared folder, and then I'll put it in our end report.
  Lakita Stowers: I will work this out uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes,
  Lakita Stowers: for
  Kathleen Dooley: you can
  Lakita Stowers: the uh next meeting.
  Kathleen Dooley: Mm yeah. You can uh put some uh which button is what.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah yeah yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Okay. Um the trend-watching included these days. And what do we? We thing that fruit and bright colours are
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah the the the front
  Dana Holden: I think
  Meredith Sproull: w
  Dana Holden: we can launch a couple of packages. You can buy
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: a different kind of of of machine, but it's the same thing, but with another front.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Meredith Sproull: Mm-hmm.
  Dana Holden: So
  Kathleen Dooley: We can also uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Kathleen Dooley: implement
  Lakita Stowers: that's the
  Dana Holden: And
  Lakita Stowers: whole
  Dana Holden: you
  Kathleen Dooley: um
  Lakita Stowers: idea
  Dana Holden: can
  Lakita Stowers: of the
  Dana Holden: you
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: front.
  Dana Holden: can
  Kathleen Dooley: we can also implement
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: fronts from um movies that are very hot. Uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yes.
  Dana Holden: Yeah right.
  Lakita Stowers: But
  Kathleen Dooley: those
  Lakita Stowers: that's
  Kathleen Dooley: kind
  Lakita Stowers: for later
  Kathleen Dooley: of things.
  Lakita Stowers: on. The fronts y you can do anything with them.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah but if you if you launch uh five different packages like
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah,
  Dana Holden: iPod
  Lakita Stowers: right
  Dana Holden: mini
  Lakita Stowers: For the uh initiative uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: launch.
  Meredith Sproull: For the for the launch, yeah.
  Dana Holden: It's
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Dana Holden: good marketing.
  Kathleen Dooley: Launch
  Meredith Sproull: So e
  Kathleen Dooley: different
  Meredith Sproull: th then
  Kathleen Dooley: lines
  Meredith Sproull: a c
  Kathleen Dooley: at once.
  Meredith Sproull: couple of basic colours. Not not very uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah, n not too
  Meredith Sproull: sim
  Dana Holden: heavy.
  Meredith Sproull: Not
  Dana Holden: You can always take another pick.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: We should not give them the m the most lovely front
  Dana Holden: They have
  Kathleen Dooley: when
  Dana Holden: to
  Kathleen Dooley: they
  Dana Holden: buy
  Kathleen Dooley: buy
  Dana Holden: it
  Kathleen Dooley: it
  Dana Holden: later
  Kathleen Dooley: for the first
  Dana Holden: on.
  Lakita Stowers: Oh
  Kathleen Dooley: time. Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah
  Lakita Stowers: yeah.
  Dana Holden: right.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Come on.
  Dana Holden: More basic.
  Kathleen Dooley: We still have to make those fifty
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: million,
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Very
  Kathleen Dooley: yeah?
  Meredith Sproull: boring, yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Meredith Sproull: The most
  Lakita Stowers: you can you
  Meredith Sproull: boring
  Lakita Stowers: can give
  Meredith Sproull: fronts
  Lakita Stowers: them uh s
  Meredith Sproull: possible.
  Lakita Stowers: s three
  Kathleen Dooley: The most
  Lakita Stowers: or so, so that they
  Kathleen Dooley: ugly.
  Lakita Stowers: can uh experiment with it and
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: that
  Dana Holden: right.
  Lakita Stowers: they want more.
  Kathleen Dooley: Two.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah but you you can have some basic colours, and
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: then we come with the special patterns on them,
  Lakita Stowers: Red
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: red,
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Lakita Stowers: blue
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: and
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: green you give them
  Meredith Sproull: And
  Lakita Stowers: or something,
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: and then you can give them
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Alright.
  Lakita Stowers: other ones.
  Kathleen Dooley: Um well the buttons etcetera, we get from Mike. Uh this fruit and bright colours, yeah well I think we'll have to in the next uh half an hour, we'll have to uh s s specify the different uh types we want to launch, when we uh well
  Meredith Sproull: Uh we
  Kathleen Dooley: introduce
  Meredith Sproull: still have
  Kathleen Dooley: our
  Meredith Sproull: to make
  Kathleen Dooley: remote.
  Meredith Sproull: We have still have to make the es the the real basic design. Because
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah we have the
  Dana Holden: But we
  Meredith Sproull: sketch but
  Dana Holden: we must remember that fancy look-and-feel is the most important thing.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Dana Holden: Else it w won't sell. So
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Meredith Sproull: Alright, yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well I'll have to, before I get another warning for five minutes, I'm going to get Where is my mouse? Uh where is my mouse?
  Dana Holden: Lost my mouse.
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh yeah. Um this is it.
  Dana Holden: Unbelievable.
  Kathleen Dooley: Well, um this we have.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Uh basic stuff. Interface we have. Supplements, L_C_D_. Maybe a a cheap voice recording. Well
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah we should
  Meredith Sproull: The price?
  Lakita Stowers: do that.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes. Alright. Individual actions.
  Meredith Sproull: We all agree on that. Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Kathleen Dooley: Industry designer, User Interface, Mike. You're going to work together on a prototype drawing on the SMARTboard.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, we can do that.
  Meredith Sproull: Together or uh Yeah
  Dana Holden: Yeah
  Meredith Sproull: together.
  Dana Holden: togeth
  Meredith Sproull: How Yeah yeah, but
  Kathleen Dooley: That's
  Meredith Sproull: how
  Lakita Stowers: But
  Kathleen Dooley: what
  Meredith Sproull: do I
  Lakita Stowers: bu
  Kathleen Dooley: I got
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Lakita Stowers: stay
  Kathleen Dooley: to
  Lakita Stowers: we
  Kathleen Dooley: hear.
  Lakita Stowers: stay here or something?
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes well we'll get it to hear that I think. But I think so. Th they're saying SMARTboard
  Dana Holden: You can
  Kathleen Dooley: and
  Dana Holden: take
  Kathleen Dooley: that's
  Dana Holden: the
  Kathleen Dooley: it
  Dana Holden: SMARTboard.
  Lakita Stowers: Ah
  Kathleen Dooley: This
  Lakita Stowers: right.
  Kathleen Dooley: is the SMARTboard, so
  Lakita Stowers: And take it to our rooms and uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Um so you can uh you you are going to make a prototype, and y Well that's includes uh specifying the buttons
  Lakita Stowers: Ah, specific
  Kathleen Dooley: etcetera.
  Lakita Stowers: instructions will be sent to you by your
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: personal coach.
  Kathleen Dooley: So you'll get it on your em on your laptop. Um well you will go and do something else uh on the project
  Dana Holden: Have fun.
  Meredith Sproull: Some
  Kathleen Dooley: yeah project
  Meredith Sproull: Some
  Kathleen Dooley: evaluation.
  Meredith Sproull: non functional tasks.
  Kathleen Dooley: So um,
  Dana Holden: 'Kay.
  Kathleen Dooley: what are you going to do? Uh I don't know what product evaluation exactly means, but uh you'll get uh the specifications.
  Dana Holden: We don't have produ product yet, so
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. That's why I uh
  Dana Holden: kind of difficult.
  Kathleen Dooley: But uh
  Meredith Sproull: You're fired. No but
  Kathleen Dooley: How long do we still have?
  Meredith Sproull: Well, can we talk about something else? Uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: Uh no I don't know anything, but maybe uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: anyone
  Dana Holden: Ajax.
  Lakita Stowers: Um
  Meredith Sproull: else uh Yeah?
  Dana Holden: Nah.
  Lakita Stowers: Will we use uh round buttons or square ones for the
  Dana Holden: Um
  Meredith Sproull: Round I think.
  Lakita Stowers: for
  Dana Holden: round.
  Lakita Stowers: the numbers?
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Dana Holden: Round.
  Lakita Stowers: I I I also
  Meredith Sproull: To make it
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Meredith Sproull: as
  Lakita Stowers: thought
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: as round as possible.
  Lakita Stowers: And these uh these s these buttons
  Kathleen Dooley: Why
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: does
  Lakita Stowers: are more uh triangle-ish
  Dana Holden: Curvy.
  Lakita Stowers: shaped
  Dana Holden: Yeah. So you can
  Lakita Stowers: with
  Dana Holden: see
  Lakita Stowers: a square
  Dana Holden: you have
  Lakita Stowers: one in
  Dana Holden: to
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Kathleen Dooley: Ah
  Lakita Stowers: middle.
  Kathleen Dooley: f fuck
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: up or down.
  Kathleen Dooley: you.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: But now I see
  Dana Holden: And
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Dana Holden: this must be uh volume I think,
  Kathleen Dooley: Heh?
  Dana Holden: and this programme.
  Lakita Stowers: Mm. Well
  Kathleen Dooley: We
  Lakita Stowers: most
  Kathleen Dooley: can't
  Lakita Stowers: of the time
  Kathleen Dooley: get
  Lakita Stowers: uh up and down is programme and left and right are volume, I think.
  Meredith Sproull: Well th th th th
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: th that
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, it depends, but
  Meredith Sproull: depends uh. Well we
  Lakita Stowers: If
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: you turn up the volume, you always see this thingy
  Meredith Sproull: We
  Lakita Stowers: go
  Meredith Sproull: we j
  Lakita Stowers: up.
  Meredith Sproull: we'll just give
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: them
  Dana Holden: that's
  Meredith Sproull: an
  Dana Holden: right.
  Meredith Sproull: uh We'll design it, and then they
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: can give comments on it.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: Ts
  Dana Holden: Okay.
  Kathleen Dooley: It doesn't work any more. We can't save them. So we'll just have them uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Kathleen Dooley: standing
  Dana Holden: I noticed.
  Kathleen Dooley: there.
  Dana Holden: You can't uh click the corners.
  Kathleen Dooley: No. It's a bit uh
  Dana Holden: It's a
  Kathleen Dooley: bit
  Dana Holden: real
  Kathleen Dooley: a pity.
  Dana Holden: real
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Dana Holden: great
  Kathleen Dooley: we still
  Dana Holden: thing.
  Kathleen Dooley: have uh more than five minutes. Um So what are we going to do? I as Project Manager ha don't have a clue.
  Dana Holden: Let's start the design.
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh we can uh decide how we implement the feeling from our company into the remote.
  Meredith Sproull: Well
  Lakita Stowers: Mm.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah. Um I think um a logo, our company logo, and the slogan should
  Kathleen Dooley: Also
  Meredith Sproull: be or
  Kathleen Dooley: the slogan?
  Meredith Sproull: could be
  Kathleen Dooley: On the
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah, why not? If there's enough space, you can put
  Lakita Stowers: Uh
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Lakita Stowers: I
  Meredith Sproull: We'll
  Dana Holden: O
  Lakita Stowers: I'd
  Meredith Sproull: we'll
  Lakita Stowers: say only the logo.
  Dana Holden: Yeah. Dana Holden too.
  Lakita Stowers: Too much text and it gets
  Meredith Sproull: Well,
  Lakita Stowers: too
  Meredith Sproull: our
  Lakita Stowers: too
  Meredith Sproull: slogan
  Lakita Stowers: busy.
  Meredith Sproull: is not very long. It's just a simple What
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: We
  Meredith Sproull: is it?
  Kathleen Dooley: put the
  Lakita Stowers: it's
  Kathleen Dooley: fashion
  Lakita Stowers: quite
  Kathleen Dooley: in electronics.
  Lakita Stowers: a long phrase.
  Kathleen Dooley: We put the
  Dana Holden: But
  Kathleen Dooley: fashion in electronics.
  Dana Holden: we kree we
  Meredith Sproull: You
  Dana Holden: keep
  Meredith Sproull: c
  Dana Holden: adjusting to the fashion with our fronts. So
  Meredith Sproull: But you can put it on the back, on the titanium part. The logo and the
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: Ah
  Dana Holden: right.
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Meredith Sproull: and
  Lakita Stowers: logo
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Lakita Stowers: should be on
  Dana Holden: The
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Dana Holden: logo
  Lakita Stowers: top I think.
  Kathleen Dooley: On the top. Yeah. Well
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah they do.
  Kathleen Dooley: in
  Meredith Sproull: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: in
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: in
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: the right top corner?
  Lakita Stowers: Right corner, yes.
  Kathleen Dooley: And well you
  Meredith Sproull: Right
  Kathleen Dooley: c
  Meredith Sproull: corner,
  Kathleen Dooley: On the back,
  Meredith Sproull: or
  Kathleen Dooley: you can put
  Meredith Sproull: maybe
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: here
  Kathleen Dooley: h
  Meredith Sproull: in the middle?
  Kathleen Dooley: At the bottom, you can put the logo with the
  Lakita Stowers: uh the text?
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: But
  Kathleen Dooley: Just
  Dana Holden: the
  Lakita Stowers: Uh yeah,
  Dana Holden: logo
  Kathleen Dooley: just
  Lakita Stowers: at
  Kathleen Dooley: small.
  Lakita Stowers: the back?
  Dana Holden: the logo shouldn't be exchangeable, when you get
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah
  Dana Holden: off the
  Meredith Sproull: it
  Dana Holden: front.
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Meredith Sproull: it
  Lakita Stowers: you
  Meredith Sproull: should
  Lakita Stowers: c
  Meredith Sproull: be
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah
  Meredith Sproull: hard
  Kathleen Dooley: well
  Meredith Sproull: on
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Lakita Stowers: Yes.
  Meredith Sproull: on the on
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: the board, and
  Lakita Stowers: You
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Meredith Sproull: you can
  Lakita Stowers: The logo
  Meredith Sproull: remove
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Meredith Sproull: the front.
  Lakita Stowers: be on on every uh
  Dana Holden: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: front.
  Dana Holden: but you can scratch it off or something. It's better if you have it uh
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, but then you must uh really
  Kathleen Dooley: Carved
  Lakita Stowers: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: into the material.
  Lakita Stowers: yeah push it in or something.
  Kathleen Dooley: No, you you can carve it into the titanium at the back.
  Meredith Sproull: I l I like the idea of the of the slogan on the on the on the thing. But
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah,
  Meredith Sproull: am
  Lakita Stowers: on
  Meredith Sproull: I the
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Meredith Sproull: only
  Lakita Stowers: backside.
  Meredith Sproull: one, or uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Well, management
  Lakita Stowers: Well
  Kathleen Dooley: would
  Lakita Stowers: n
  Kathleen Dooley: like
  Lakita Stowers: n not
  Kathleen Dooley: it.
  Lakita Stowers: not on the front side, I think.
  Kathleen Dooley: The front side,
  Meredith Sproull: No
  Kathleen Dooley: no
  Meredith Sproull: not
  Kathleen Dooley: no
  Meredith Sproull: on
  Kathleen Dooley: l
  Meredith Sproull: the front,
  Kathleen Dooley: no
  Meredith Sproull: but

  Lakita Stowers: so that it is
  Meredith Sproull: I think
  Lakita Stowers: always
  Meredith Sproull: it's a nice
  Lakita Stowers: be
  Meredith Sproull: idea,
  Lakita Stowers: there.
  Meredith Sproull: to make it more recognisable,
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: that the
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: next to the logo you have the slogan.
  Dana Holden: I agree.
  Meredith Sproull: To make more uh
  Dana Holden: But
  Meredith Sproull: of
  Dana Holden: not
  Meredith Sproull: an impression.
  Dana Holden: too big. Just
  Meredith Sproull: Not
  Dana Holden: uh
  Meredith Sproull: too big. No, very small. Not
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: on the entire back, but uh just very small. But readable enough of course.
  Dana Holden: Okay.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes,
  Meredith Sproull: But
  Kathleen Dooley: slogan
  Meredith Sproull: we'll uh we'll
  Kathleen Dooley: from
  Meredith Sproull: take that uh with us
  Kathleen Dooley: company
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Meredith Sproull: into
  Lakita Stowers: I
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Lakita Stowers: think
  Meredith Sproull: design.
  Lakita Stowers: over here the logo.
  Meredith Sproull: Lo Uh yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: on the
  Meredith Sproull: Or
  Kathleen Dooley: back
  Meredith Sproull: maybe here in the middle, but we'll decide
  Kathleen Dooley: with
  Meredith Sproull: later.
  Kathleen Dooley: logo and logo also on the front but not exchange uh Uh? Hmm? Uh when changing fronts. Alright,
  Meredith Sproull: Do you do you see
  Kathleen Dooley: that's
  Meredith Sproull: a
  Kathleen Dooley: decided.
  Meredith Sproull: bit of the of the um
  Kathleen Dooley: Five minutes left.
  Meredith Sproull: of the uh titanium? O on the front? Uh maybe if we
  Lakita Stowers: Yes we
  Meredith Sproull: make this
  Lakita Stowers: could
  Meredith Sproull: this this lower part titanium, the front is the the upper part, and the the bit with the with the L_C_D_ screen. So
  Kathleen Dooley: So a bit of titanium between?
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: No no betwe of
  Kathleen Dooley: That's
  Meredith Sproull: between
  Kathleen Dooley: a bit
  Meredith Sproull: we
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh
  Meredith Sproull: can
  Kathleen Dooley: that
  Meredith Sproull: do
  Kathleen Dooley: that's
  Meredith Sproull: but
  Kathleen Dooley: that's pretty cool.
  Meredith Sproull: But then you have two parts
  Lakita Stowers: No, they
  Meredith Sproull: of
  Lakita Stowers: have
  Meredith Sproull: front,
  Dana Holden: No
  Lakita Stowers: two
  Dana Holden: no
  Lakita Stowers: fronts,
  Dana Holden: no no.
  Lakita Stowers: that.
  Meredith Sproull: two
  Dana Holden: You
  Meredith Sproull: fronts
  Dana Holden: have to
  Meredith Sproull: that
  Dana Holden: make
  Lakita Stowers: You
  Dana Holden: this
  Kathleen Dooley: No?
  Lakita Stowers: you
  Dana Holden: titanium
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Dana Holden: too.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah. Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: This enti
  Dana Holden: Else
  Meredith Sproull: entire
  Dana Holden: you you
  Meredith Sproull: bottom?
  Dana Holden: get problems
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: with the L_C_D_.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yes.
  Dana Holden: Like dust in it and so things like
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: that. When you exchange all the fronts and it's open.
  Kathleen Dooley: I already
  Lakita Stowers: No, you
  Kathleen Dooley: have
  Lakita Stowers: can
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Lakita Stowers: you can
  Kathleen Dooley: all
  Lakita Stowers: just
  Kathleen Dooley: kinds of uh
  Lakita Stowers: And then not a
  Kathleen Dooley: filth
  Lakita Stowers: straight
  Kathleen Dooley: between
  Lakita Stowers: line
  Kathleen Dooley: the
  Lakita Stowers: but uh
  Kathleen Dooley: mobile.
  Lakita Stowers: some sort of wave
  Meredith Sproull: And then the lower part
  Lakita Stowers: or
  Meredith Sproull: is titanium?
  Lakita Stowers: something. This is titanium.
  Meredith Sproull: I think
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: And
  Meredith Sproull: that's
  Lakita Stowers: this
  Meredith Sproull: nice,
  Lakita Stowers: is uh
  Dana Holden: Some
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Dana Holden: some kind of wei weight
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: in it. Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Round forms.
  Lakita Stowers: F front.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah. I like that bit of uh titanium also
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: on
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Lakita Stowers: With the
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yep.
  Lakita Stowers: with the
  Meredith Sproull: A bit
  Lakita Stowers: curved
  Meredith Sproull: like uh
  Lakita Stowers: edge.
  Meredith Sproull: a bit like your mobile phone. Maybe you can show
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: it. It also has the
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.

  Meredith Sproull: Maybe
  Dana Holden: a
  Kathleen Dooley: where?
  Meredith Sproull: a nice touch, yeah.
  Dana Holden: little corner
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah,

  Dana Holden: this
  Meredith Sproull: going
  Dana Holden: is
  Meredith Sproull: to buy
  Dana Holden: the
  Meredith Sproull: it.
  Dana Holden: exchangeable part.
  Kathleen Dooley: We want

  Kathleen Dooley: it.
  Lakita Stowers: is the front.
  Kathleen Dooley: And it's only f twenty five Euros. Come
  Lakita Stowers: This
  Meredith Sproull: That's
  Kathleen Dooley: on.
  Meredith Sproull: a bit too much, but No,
  Kathleen Dooley: No that's nothing.
  Meredith Sproull: no no no, but
  Kathleen Dooley: The Phillips
  Lakita Stowers: is
  Meredith Sproull: I think
  Kathleen Dooley: remote
  Meredith Sproull: uh
  Kathleen Dooley: uh costs
  Meredith Sproull: this
  Lakita Stowers: the
  Meredith Sproull: looks
  Kathleen Dooley: more.
  Meredith Sproull: uh pretty nice actually. Of course,
  Dana Holden: Right.
  Meredith Sproull: because it's my design but No
  Lakita Stowers: My design.
  Meredith Sproull: our d our design, alright.
  Dana Holden: Taking
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Dana Holden: all the
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Dana Holden: credit.
  Kathleen Dooley: you two are going to work together. You'll get your uh specifications on your uh laptop, and then
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Lakita Stowers: We'll stay here I guess?
  Dana Holden: But
  Kathleen Dooley: you
  Dana Holden: there's
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Dana Holden: a problem. We can't uh take a blank one. Or can we?
  Kathleen Dooley: Well I think we can, I just
  Lakita Stowers: Well we
  Kathleen Dooley: It's
  Lakita Stowers: can uh erase an animal I guess.
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Uh the
  Dana Holden: Nah
  Lakita Stowers: fourth
  Dana Holden: that's
  Lakita Stowers: one.
  Dana Holden: alright,
  Meredith Sproull: But don't
  Dana Holden: that's
  Meredith Sproull: erase
  Dana Holden: alright.
  Meredith Sproull: my cat.
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah,
  Lakita Stowers: Uh the
  Kathleen Dooley: o
  Lakita Stowers: fourth one is empty, isn't it? Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh
  Meredith Sproull: I want to preserve it.
  Dana Holden: This one is empty.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: You have to empty one huh?
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh, we have a one.
  Meredith Sproull: What are you doing chief?
  Kathleen Dooley: So, you
  Dana Holden: Alright.
  Kathleen Dooley: can uh draw a
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: I think we have to wait?
  Kathleen Dooley: Well
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah
  Dana Holden: No
  Kathleen Dooley: I'll
  Meredith Sproull: until
  Kathleen Dooley: get a
  Meredith Sproull: the
  Kathleen Dooley: I'll get the
  Meredith Sproull: until the beep
  Kathleen Dooley: message.
  Meredith Sproull: goes. But I don't uh Do we have to stay here, or I think
  Kathleen Dooley: No,
  Meredith Sproull: we have to return
  Kathleen Dooley: I
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: think
  Meredith Sproull: first.
  Kathleen Dooley: uh Well you'll Maybe you can uh keep your uh laptop here.
  Lakita Stowers: Maybe.
  Kathleen Dooley: Or get your mouse. Because it's little
  Meredith Sproull: The
  Kathleen Dooley: bit
  Meredith Sproull: high powers
  Kathleen Dooley: uh
  Meredith Sproull: from above
  Kathleen Dooley: hard to work with these uh plates.
  Meredith Sproull: will have
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: to tell us, yeah.
  Dana Holden: It's not relaxing.
  Kathleen Dooley: I always have a mouse next to my laptop. I hate
  Dana Holden: I
  Kathleen Dooley: these
  Dana Holden: I don't
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah,
  Dana Holden: have
  Meredith Sproull: touch-pads,
  Dana Holden: a laptop.
  Meredith Sproull: yeah.
  Kathleen Dooley: Ugh.
  Meredith Sproull: We can uh do a touch-pad on our remote.
  Dana Holden: Yeah right.
  Meredith Sproull: No
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: just kidding.
  Dana Holden: Dream on.
  Meredith Sproull: Well we have uh b you have to have a bit of humour in the in the discussions too, because it becomes too
  Kathleen Dooley: And in your remote control.
  Meredith Sproull: too too
  Kathleen Dooley: So we put
  Meredith Sproull: too
  Kathleen Dooley: a
  Meredith Sproull: stressy.
  Kathleen Dooley: touch pad on it, and say ha ha.
  Lakita Stowers: Aha. This has no function.
  Dana Holden: Half
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah. We know you'll you'll you'll hate it but
  Meredith Sproull: But uh th youth doesn't care about functio functionality,
  Dana Holden: No.
  Meredith Sproull: so
  Kathleen Dooley: But they do want some gadgets.
  Dana Holden: It's
  Kathleen Dooley: So
  Dana Holden: all about cool things.
  Kathleen Dooley: that's wha what we're doing.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah.
  Dana Holden: And it will sell. We will be rich.

  Kathleen Dooley: Mm.
  Lakita Stowers: Its the best remote ever.
  Kathleen Dooley: So
  Lakita Stowers: Pinball.
  Kathleen Dooley: Oh. Oh he's totally off again. Well
  Dana Holden: No man. You just have to push harder.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah you have to push harder.
  Kathleen Dooley: But when I start here,
  Meredith Sproull: Mm.
  Kathleen Dooley: it's here. So
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: Yes,
  Kathleen Dooley: is
  Lakita Stowers: but

  Lakita Stowers: you you get really close to the screen with your hand, and I don't think that's
  Dana Holden: Mm.
  Lakita Stowers: Hmm.
  Dana Holden: Recalibrate
  Kathleen Dooley: Nope.
  Dana Holden: it.
  Meredith Sproull: Where's the good old chalk board with the
  Dana Holden: Yeah.
  Meredith Sproull: the green board with the, how do you call it, chalk, yeah.
  Lakita Stowers: We can better uh draw a design on this.
  Meredith Sproull: Yeah, maybe.
  Lakita Stowers: Yeah, but we can't.
  Meredith Sproull: Maybe if i if that thing is recalibrated, we can draw a thing quick, and then before it uh
  Kathleen Dooley: Yeah.

Updated Content: For the conceptual design, Dana Holden talked about the public's preference for looks and texture over technological innovation; however, they both seem to be more important than ease of use. The current fashion among younger people favours bright colours and fruit and vegetable themes: pertinent exchangeable fronts can express such trends on the remote. Materials also need to be strong: Dana Holden suggested an iron-plate or titanium front. Meredith Sproull suggested they use rubber push buttons (and no scroll wheel), simple battery (instead of solar cells or kinetic dynamo), and advanced chip. Speech recognition can be implemented, but it does not link speech commands to remote control actions. He also advised that the users within the target group prefer primary colours, soft textures and curved shapes. The team drew a provisional prototype. They placed the LCD below the buttons. If it is implemented, a recording button, microphone and speaker need to be included in the design. Finally, they decided to have a titanium case with plastic front and the company logo and slogan engraved. Packages with a variety of changeable fronts will be launched.
