Project Manager: Uh 'kay . So {disfmarker}
Marketing: So so so .
User Interface: Put on your mic .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} So you forgot how this works again ?
User Interface: Boss .
Project Manager: Yep .
Industrial Designer: {gap} Boss .
Marketing: Maybe . Maybe maybe maybe .
Project Manager: Okay so we're here to talk about the detailed design of the product , 'kay ?
User Interface: Yep .
Project Manager: And here's the agenda for this meeting . Uh I'm just gonna open , say a few boring words to start with again , and start taking minutes afterwards . You guys are gonna give us a presentation of our wonder product that I can see some demonstrations of over there . Looks cool . And then we're gonna evaluate it .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Bra
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Then we're gonna talk about finance , and I've got a lovely Excel spreadsheet that I knocked up in the last five minutes for this . And uh
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Hmm you knocked it up ?
Project Manager: yep . And {vocalsound} we're gonna evaluate the product and close .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Got forty minutes to do this in . We should be fine . Let's try and keep this one on schedule .
User Interface: Alright .
Project Manager: So {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Your thing is in {disfmarker} where is it ? Is it in {disfmarker}
User Interface: Three , three .
Industrial Designer: Thi third third third . The end product thingy . Yeah .
Project Manager: Who wants it ?
User Interface: Pedro can have it .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: I like {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {gap} .
User Interface: I'll help talk .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Um yeah so what we ended up with . Production costs estimated by our manufacturing department and um the research department , which is us , is uh fifteen point eight Euros ,
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: someone forgot the {vocalsound} units there
User Interface: Unit price .
Industrial Designer: yeah , uh unit price {disfmarker} unit production price cost thing . Um we implemented the basic functions , which is just T_V_ functions plus the locator , which was one of the marketing things , cradle , scroll wheel for uh the {vocalsound} the channels , and uh we implemented the f the the way of putting the new and revolutionary zapping , your favourite channels functionality , in the scroll .
Project Manager: Zapping your favourite channels , eh ?
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
User Interface: Scrolling through your favourites list .
Project Manager: Oh okay okay .
Industrial Designer: Zapping you know zapping .
Project Manager: Ah 'kay okay , that's favourites .
Industrial Designer: Maybe it's just a Portuguese thing {vocalsound} . And um yeah that was the result .
Project Manager: Ah 'kay . I like the the the the logo on there as well .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: It's very prominent {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: It is very prominent . So this is the {disfmarker}
User Interface: So {vocalsound} here I'll give you the {disfmarker} so this is the cradle unit , and this is the actual remote itself . Um so the scroll bar is {disfmarker} or the scroll wheel is this this green little scrolly guy here , um and then the volume controls are here and here .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Uh you've got the keypad which is the numbers uh f from zero to nine and then ten . This is the power button . Uh we have our um {vocalsound} we have the enter button and uh what was the other button here ? This is the teletext .
Industrial Designer: Start s the the start uh to to to
User Interface: The programme button ,
Industrial Designer: programme yeah .
Project Manager: Ah , okay I see .
User Interface: yeah the programme button . So this bl this button will be used both for the favourites and for programming {vocalsound} your uh the um the type of television you wanna use . So um the plastic is the white area of this {disfmarker} of the model here , and the red area is like a rubber covering .
Project Manager: It's pretty cool .
User Interface: So you can see that when it lays like this or like this {disfmarker} and the buttons are all gonna be rubber , so it's pretty hard to actually damage it um {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Is that {disfmarker} could that be easy to {disfmarker} for the scroll wheel to be rotated if it lands on it ?
User Interface: Yeah that might be a possible a mi uh possible problem , but if you drop it {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Not helping {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: yeah {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: Oh well I guess it depends on the stiffness a little of it .
User Interface: Yeah and it depends on if it's sliding , but I think it's pretty ergonomic . You can feel it .
Project Manager: Mm . Feels good .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I take it that this is gonna be slightly lighter in the final design as well .
User Interface: Yeah of course . Well this is clay {vocalsound} .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Yeah it's kinda cool . You have to reach a little bit don't you .
User Interface: Yeah the the power button is a bit of a reach , but I think we might scale down the final model a bit .
Project Manager: Ah yeah that wouldn't make sense .
User Interface: {vocalsound} These {disfmarker} this is a bit larger than it would be , but {disfmarker}
Project Manager: It's cool . I'm impressed .
Industrial Designer: Don't have no one to handle that .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: And hold it so {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
Marketing: Mm that's {disfmarker}
Project Manager: wh what's the marketing perspective ?
Marketing: oh that's {disfmarker} oh I like it . I mean you guys gave me more than I was asking for , so I'm happy because we've got some really marketable features in this . Yeah I think it's good . Good good good job .
User Interface: Mm Pedro can demonstrate the the paging ability .
Industrial Designer: Yeah . So you ha you have like the the base station with um the little button for the where's my remote .
User Interface: Beep beep beep .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Uh pla
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: The locator function .
Marketing: I'm ha
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Okay .
Marketing: It's great . That's great . It's a great feature .
User Interface: Um beep beep beep {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Mm it's impressing .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Wicked isn't it ? {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} So let me get it ,
User Interface: so {vocalsound}
Project Manager: if I press this button {disfmarker}
User Interface: beep beep beep {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I see . That's pretty cool . Hang on . {vocalsound}
User Interface: beep beep beep {vocalsound} be shut up . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: So you can take this ho take this home with you tonight and you can push that and he'll be across town {disfmarker}
User Interface: Beep beep beep {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} {vocalsound} I plan to do that as well .
User Interface: okay . Um no no no tha that's alri
Project Manager: {vocalsound} So the the two blue {disfmarker} are are those for the the it to charge off of {disfmarker} in ?
User Interface: Exactly that's exactly what those are for .
Project Manager: Ah okay okay .
User Interface: And um there's one other feature that we were debating , but we decided to go against it , is um {disfmarker} you could
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: beep beep beep {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: we were thinking that it might be interesting to have a trigger button here because you have this finger {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah {vocalsound} it's the right shape isn't it ?
User Interface: it it's it kinda feels like there should be something there , but we couldn't figure out what button is important enough to put there . And we we don't wanna accidentally be hitting the power button like that so {disfmarker}
Project Manager: But maybe if you had a trigger plus the scroll then that would get past the the problem of it landing and scrolling ,
User Interface: Mm .
Project Manager: 'cause then it would need to be hit on both sides {gap} .
User Interface: Right . So maybe in a final design phase we might tweak that a little bit ,
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: but {disfmarker}
Marketing: Uh , I can see that .
Project Manager: But it's definitely got options for like different types of models and things as well based on that , hasn't it ?
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: Yep I like . Good job .
Project Manager: So is that the the final colour scheme as well or ?
Marketing: {vocalsound} No no .
User Interface: Oh no this is {vocalsound} just what we had to work with at the time .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: So we'll leave the colour scheme up to the marketing people .
Project Manager: The {disfmarker} hmm .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Careful .
Project Manager: It came off . The scroll wheels , {gap} a problem with them not being sort of {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I don't think the user interface guy wants to touch it anymore .
Marketing: Well I mean of course , I mean {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: My my s my suggestion is we're gonna go go to the silvers and blacks like most of the televisions .
Project Manager: Mm .
Marketing: You know some blend of silvers and blacks .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Beep beep beep . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Okay enough of that .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Well i it's cool guys . 'Kay so are we done with the this presentation ?
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Ja .
Project Manager: Okay . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Now now .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: So you're not gonna find my uh my folder up there I gotta do mine up at the board .
Project Manager: Have you ? Okay .
Marketing: Yeah yeah . So {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Can I not get your get at stuff from your shared folder now ?
Marketing: No it's not in there because I had the computer problem and I I I cou I couldn't create it .
Project Manager: Oh I see I see .
Marketing: I couldn't create it in the PowerPoint ,
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Marketing: and I think I've got this really strange cable . So what I had , basically going from the PowerPoint format , is that uh yeah yeah I like this a lot . Is this one of the tests is to see how we can adapt to s changing situations in the in the meeting room ?
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Nah .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: So what we had is we had the method . That's not how you spell method , is it ?
User Interface: No way .
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Marketing: No A_ {vocalsound} . {gap} . {vocalsound} So this doesn't go so fast this way . And when I speak about method I speak about the marketing of the product huh . And uh to me with this product we got uh {disfmarker} we got {vocalsound} basically three things to market . We've got the features , we have the uh characteristics , and we have the {vocalsound} I I don't know what we would call the other part {disfmarker} what we call you know the the {vocalsound} the corp corporate {disfmarker} Help me . The the corporation stands behind the product , okay . So the features I think {vocalsound} we got the scroll , we've got the uh the locator , we've got the durability , we've got the dependability ,
Industrial Designer: It fell off .
Marketing: we've got you know the features that make this a unique product . Um
User Interface: Beep beep beep .
Marketing: {vocalsound} the characteristics I talk about , we have reliability , we have comfort , we have ergonomics , we have environmentally s sensitive . Uh and the corporation , we're talking about {disfmarker} we're we're a new we're a new company . We're wanting to make a name for ourself . We're wanting you to uh find our product so we're gonna give you a good product at a fair price . One thing I would want to to see is uh is can we can we get a lifetime uh guarantee on this product , a normal use guarantee , which means that this product , for the for the life of of {disfmarker} the life use , if it should have a technical problem , that we could re replace it at no cost ? That was something I would be interested in . Um so {vocalsound} yeah without uh going into great details , we have a we have a product , it has the features and the characteristics , and the background , I believe , to make it marketable I believe at a cost of of of thirty thirty five to to fifty Euros . We're gonna be competitive , and we're gonna we're gonna have a market niche . Um w
Project Manager: Do you {disfmarker} would you a argue that that we're better going for the higher cost than bringing it down into twenty f five as we probably could , but lowering our profit margins ?
Marketing: That that would be uh that would be I think a decision best made by corporate um I I m for my evaluation , based on what our competition is , I th I think that that we can go after this and and and go after more of the uh exclusivity sense than the mass market sense .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm . Mm 'kay .
Marketing: But I'm sh I'm sure open to to market this in either direction . But you guys came up with a great product , and at that cost I think it uh {disfmarker} there's nobody else that's putting this this combination of of ingredients together . The only limitations I see to this is that we're focused on television only . Uh that's the only that's the only drawback I see to this . But with all of these other features I think people c {vocalsound} one thing I'm I'm hoping for is people are not gonna even notice . There's gonna be somebody going home and say oh sh this thing doesn't work for my D_V_D_ and my {disfmarker} but I like these other things , so they keep it , they don't take it back .
Project Manager: And we're actually quite open to be able to expand the product for a later version with those features quite simply anyway , aren't we ? Th there's no fundamentally different technology to do that .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Well one of one of the thoughts that I had is can can this unit be be produced in a way that makes it upgradable ?
Project Manager: Hmm .
Marketing: You know uh like like a um a sim card in a in a um in a telephone . You know is there a card in th can we make a card and so after {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: W we need we need we need s some more buttons if it would to work on some other stuff , but {disfmarker}
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: Mm-hmm , but you follow what I'm s I'm s
Industrial Designer: We we w yeah we could get another version of it that actually works . But uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah 'cause if if we can make this unit upgradable then we're {disfmarker} {vocalsound} yeah but then we talk about changing the warranty concept and everything , but that's that was just an idea I had . Uh to me the only additions {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah , the plus there's the the risk of making it unusable as well , or making it less {disfmarker} b because at the moment it's actually very straightforward to look at all the buttons , you know what they do , it's very simple , and it just works .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Mm there's a risk of that .
Marketing: Yep . But anyway that's uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Okay so we can talk about finance now . So I have a little spreadsheet for us where {disfmarker} I I was wondering , you {disfmarker} when you talked about the fifteen point eight Euros , I was wondering how you came up with that figure ?
User Interface: Well , that was just just our technical team added up the um production costs of the individual units .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Okay so I have bit of a spreadsheet here for this . {vocalsound} Now
User Interface: Oh .
Industrial Designer: Very co very colf colourful .
Project Manager: I've made a f few assumptions here in that I'm assuming that our power adaptor we can make for a cost of four Euros ,
User Interface: {vocalsound} Uh-huh .
Project Manager: equivalent to solar cells , which I think is probably fair considering that we have in-house manufacturing of power adaptors already .
User Interface: Uh-huh .
Project Manager: Uh {vocalsound} and I'm assuming that the locator beacon , the you know the {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: beep beep beep .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Can be made for {disfmarker} it sounded different that time {disfmarker} uh can be made for a similar price to uh an L_C_ display ,
User Interface: Oh , sorry . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: uh an uh {gap} {disfmarker} {vocalsound} Uh do you think that's fair coming from a {disfmarker} m the manufacturing ?
User Interface: Yeah um I do think we that we we {vocalsound} uh don't need the events chip on print , we only need the uh the regular chip on print ,
Project Manager: {gap} . Okay .
User Interface: so there may have been a m miscalculation in there .
Project Manager: Yep . Okay . So we're down to sixteen point four , yeah .
User Interface: And we and we have a single-curved uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Is that a single-curved rather than a double-curved ?
User Interface: Uh I think that {disfmarker}
Project Manager: We're not entirely sure what single-curve versus double-cur
Marketing: {vocalsound} We've got a we've got a curve and a droop . I don't know whether that {vocalsound} .
User Interface: It's single-curved ,
Project Manager: You think ? Okay
User Interface: yeah .
Project Manager: I'm {gap} convinced . But we save one Euro that way , yeah ? So we come {disfmarker} bring it down to {disfmarker} {vocalsound} Fifteen point four .
User Interface: See it's a little bit more than f single-curved . So yeah it's fifteen point eight , that's where we came up with it {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Well hang on .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Do don't speak so {disfmarker} it's in here , in that {vocalsound}
User Interface: Okay .
Project Manager: w do we have any {disfmarker} we have special form don't we ?
User Interface: Yeah we do .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: So that's {disfmarker} yeah .
User Interface: Ah . What do you know {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: But the the the {disfmarker} we haven't talked about any special colour though uh I don't th
User Interface: {vocalsound} Oh it's {vocalsound} a that's not very special , it's pretty {disfmarker}
Project Manager: if we're going for greys and silvers then I don't think we're {disfmarker} {vocalsound} O okay so we're {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound} If th {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: Push-button , scroll wheel , we're {disfmarker} basically we have uh th
Industrial Designer: We don't {disfmarker}
Project Manager: is this intended to be a button as well or just a scroll ?
User Interface: That's a scroll .
Industrial Designer: It's a scroll .
Project Manager: Just a scroll ? It's not one of the scrolls where , for example , with this one you could push it down to be a button ?
User Interface: Uh no we just use it as a scroll .
Marketing: Ooh .
Project Manager: Okay then we have fifteen point eight Euros .
User Interface: It was a pretty accurate estimate I would say .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} It wasn't bad .
Industrial Designer: Yes .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Yeah {vocalsound} .
Industrial Designer: We're wicked . Awesome .
Project Manager: Okay so we're on to the {disfmarker}
User Interface: S 's kind of s frighteningly accurate {vocalsound} .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: We're on to the pat-on-the-back part of the presentation , where we have a look at the criterias th that Paul {vocalsound} the criterion criteria that Paul has has given us {vocalsound} , and we can use that to tell {disfmarker} How's it going ? {vocalsound} Anyone got any thoughts ?
User Interface: What ?
Project Manager: How how have we done today ?
User Interface: I think we did pretty well .
Project Manager: I think we did pretty well too .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: That looks pretty spectacular .
Marketing: No , I think we come up with a with a attractive marketable um product and and concept .
Project Manager: Any other chang uh thoughts ? Okay so th th what about um room for creativity ?
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Is it the {gap} .
Industrial Designer: That was mm-hmm {disfmarker}
User Interface: Sh I think there was plenty of room .
Project Manager: I {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: I think we we ended up being quite creative there .
User Interface: We got a couple innovative i
Marketing: Yeah
User Interface: Couple innovative ideas .
Marketing: well we we we kinda broke {vocalsound} {disfmarker} we kinda at least adjusted every every criteria they gave us
Project Manager: Mm .
Marketing: because we d we still have the the teletext capability in this thing right ,
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: No .
Marketing: we raised the price of it , we've added two t new technology to it .
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Marketing: So you know you know if this thing flies then we've we've adjusted or broken every every idea they gave us .
Project Manager: Not every idea necessarily ,
Industrial Designer: Basically .
Project Manager: it's still a remote control {vocalsound} .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah yeah yeah yeah .
Project Manager: Uh no yeah but {disfmarker} we did we did break with the specs a little bit I guess ,
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: but the uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: But I like {disfmarker} I mean when I say we have we had {disfmarker} I believe we have room for creativity 'cause w this is {disfmarker} we did it .
Project Manager: 'Kay leadership , what do we report back to the bosses ? No th th I think they were r reasonably flexible with us over the whole changing the specs thing .
User Interface: Yep .
Industrial Designer: It was more of a teamwork thing then really leadership based project was
Project Manager: I agree .
Industrial Designer: Teamwork .
Marketing: Cohesive yeah .
Project Manager: Synergy .
User Interface: {vocalsound} There was a lot of synergy .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yes synergistic yeah .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Teamwork , yeah he is uh .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: What did we think of the meeting room , I guess is an important thing here . Mm .
User Interface: These cables suck {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: Yeah , this falls off
Industrial Designer: Yeah .
Project Manager: and uh the white board worked really well without any pro
User Interface: Yep .
Industrial Designer: And that's {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: D you must have very long shirts . That's way far down lapel mic .
Project Manager: Mm-mm , lapel . Wha okay , oh , alright {vocalsound} .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Lapel lapel lapel {vocalsound} .
User Interface: Lapel .
Industrial Designer: That's almost a crotch {vocalsound} mi cr {vocalsound}
Project Manager: That's it's down , it's quite close .
Marketing: {vocalsound} You know you know what they're gonna have on the recording in there from that microphone is your lunch digesting you know th {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Keep it , keep it calm . {vocalsound} Oh dear {vocalsound} . No more pizza for me {vocalsound} .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Oh dear oh dear {vocalsound} .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: So yeah the the pen came in alright and it's a little uncomfortable to use but I guess it works .
Industrial Designer: 'Cause this is {disfmarker} you were using it o upside down . Still that {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound} That's our boss {vocalsound} .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Nah , I'm I'm not convinced of that at all .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I've been wor I've been wondering about that all day , but see these look like they're {disfmarker} that looks the oth that looks like it would be that way around ,
Industrial Designer: Use them like that .
User Interface: Pedro's right .
Project Manager: but it feels more comfortable , wh what you call upside-down .
User Interface: Pedro's right .
Project Manager: I don't care . Uh okay so that data might be slightly invalid . What new ideas have we found ?
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: Oh wel
Marketing: New ideas f uh for the product or for the the the the environment or {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Well let's do both then .
Marketing: what are we ta
Project Manager: Uh for the product ?
User Interface: Well we had the favourites list , and the scroll bar , and we have the cradle , and the r uh remote call feature .
Marketing: Oh .
Project Manager: Yeah we came up with quite a bit .
Industrial Designer: Bunch of new ideas .
Project Manager: And for the meeting room , Has anyone got any more {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Yeah comfortable headsets would be nice .
Project Manager: Yeah less sore on the ears .
Marketing: Well I I mean {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Mm .
Marketing: clearly remote control microphones would be the would be a nice solution to all these cables , but I'm sure that there's there's some justification for these things that I don't know about . And of course I did not have so much fun with my computer this afternoon .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: It's not been uh it's not been cooperating so well , but {vocalsound} I don't think that's the that's avoidable .
Industrial Designer: Coulda been worse .
Project Manager: Okay {vocalsound} so {disfmarker} Are the costs within the budget ? {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Mm n {vocalsound} no .
Project Manager: Nope .
Marketing: No .
Project Manager: Oh hang on it really {disfmarker} that's something we {disfmarker} that the costs were under twelve fifty Euros . No requirements are changed . We're still under twenty Euros to build , so we're good .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: And the costs within the budget ? Not the original budget , but they are now . Is the project evaluated ? Mm I think so yeah , then celebration as it says .
Industrial Designer: Hooray .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Okay .
Industrial Designer: Free coke provided at the cafeteria .
Project Manager: Oh I don't know how that got there .
User Interface: All right .
Project Manager: Uh anyway .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Who wrote that one ?
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Thank
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Thanks guys .
Marketing: So we need to close this meeting ,
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: yeah bravo . Congratulations .
User Interface: Good job guys .
Industrial Designer: Cool .
Marketing: S I've got a lot of paperwork to catch up on so let's close this and come back and {disfmarker} 'kay .
Project Manager: Yeah , I've got a lot of paperwork to catch up on too . Oh .


Project Manager: Okay , all set ? Welcome to the conceptual design meeting .
User Interface: Uh , okay .
Industrial Designer: Yes .
Project Manager: The agenda . The opening . I'll again be the secretary and make minutes , take minutes , uh and it will be three presentations , just like the last meeting . So um , {vocalsound} who wants to start off ? Technical uh designer again ?
User Interface: {vocalsound} Again .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Hmm .
Project Manager: Uh , yeah . Uh , before we begin it , I want to say I've I've put the minutes of the uh second meeting in the shared folder , but they're still not uh quite okay . It uh it uh still some technical difficulties so the the first part of the minutes are very hard to read , because there are two documents that uh were layered over each other .
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: So {disfmarker}
Marketing: Okay .
Project Manager: But uh , from now on I won't use my pen anymore , so will be p just {vocalsound} ordinary keyboard .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: Uh , may be better , yeah .
Marketing: Keyboard work . Yeah .
Project Manager: I think it {gap} will will be more uh easy for you to read the minutes .
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Alright .
Industrial Designer: Okay , when we talk about uh components design , um it's really about the material and the {disfmarker} and uh uh really the stuff we build uh the remote controls of . Um , a remote control consist of uh components and the components of a remote control consist of uh properties and material . We have to choose th uh these uh wisely and it could affect uh uh a kind of grow of {disfmarker} in uh in buying uh the remote controls . Um , the components of a remote control are of course uh the case . Uh the properties of the case , um it has to be solid uh in hard material like uh hard plastic uh with soft rubber for uh falling and and uh uh {disfmarker} yeah , it feels uh good in your hand .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Mm the buttons has to be uh solid too , and the material is soft rubber . Uh I've got a uh email from the possibilities of Real Reaction . Um uh they're telling me that um when we build uh a remote control of um of plastic or rubber , the uh buttons have to be uh rubber too . Mm {disfmarker} It's okay . Yeah . I when we use a rubbled {disfmarker} a doubled curved case , we must use a rubber push-buttons to {disfmarker} uh the the rubber double-curved case is a is a t uh three-dimensional uh curve in the in the design , which is uh necessary when we want to be trendy . Uh {disfmarker} Um
User Interface: Oh .
Industrial Designer: the energy source , uh I've got a lot of possibilities for that too . Um , uh the basic battery , which I thi prefer because of its uh its non uh non-depending of of of uh um {disfmarker} Uh here you have to have a hand uh {disfmarker} yeah , kinetic uh energy . Also in uh this one , like in the watches , but a remote control can lie on a table for a day , and then you push uh a button and {disfmarker} so you don't have to uh walk with it all the all the time . Mm , solar cells are also uh a bit weird for uh remote controls .
Marketing: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Um uh also the case material , uh I think that plastic is the is the best with rubber , because uh wood or titanium would also be a bit weird .
User Interface: Oh titanium is probably trendy , I think . {gap} .
Marketing: That's true , I guess . Yeah .
User Interface: Well , maybe a little bit expensive .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: I don't know .
Industrial Designer: Uh , they don't tell anything about the cost of uh titanium .
Marketing: Huh .
Industrial Designer: Um the chip {disfmarker} uh the chip set uh and the board is uh all off the shelf . Also , the speaker in the remote control , when we want to retrieve it . Um , the base station is also off the shelf , all the materials and the components are uh just available in uh in our uh factory . Mm , I've told about uh the three first points . Mm , the simple electronical chip uh is is available uh with the LED transmitter uh transmitter . Uh , it's all uh off the shelf and even the speaker and the wireless retriever are all uh available in our company . Um , another possibility . I uh yeah , I looked up on was uh the L_C_D_ displays . Could be uh something special to our uh remote control , and it's possible , but it only cost a bit more , but maybe it can be uh within the limits of twenty five Euros .
Project Manager: Twelve and a half . Actually {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Ah yeah .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: Yeah , production cost .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} I th I got an email with uh some examples and it {disfmarker} these were were the most trendiest one .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: You see uh a covers , which can be {disfmarker}
Project Manager: What are those , t tooth uh brushes , or so
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Um , I don't know . Um {disfmarker}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: But it's actually kind of uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: I {disfmarker}
Project Manager: well , it resembles the design I had in mind for this proj
Industrial Designer: Yes .
Project Manager: You know the the cartoonish {vocalsound} Alessi kind of design .
Marketing: Yep .
Industrial Designer: Yes , maybe we can uh bri uh bring a couple of uh couple of types of uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: And we can we can steal their ideas .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: maybe a kind of uh whole uh um a whole set of uh different uh remote controls .
Project Manager: Huh .
Industrial Designer: Maybe we can bring a whole line uh with uh with a {gap} huge variety of uh
Project Manager: Well , it's a possibility , too .
Industrial Designer: uh house uh stuff .
User Interface: Different colours also .
Industrial Designer: Like uh {vocalsound} maybe radios and uh television also uh in this in this {disfmarker} in the same style , but {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Uh-uh .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah , that'll be for the future , I guess .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Yeah . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Next time we're here . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Yes , because we have to uh {disfmarker} we have to {disfmarker} {vocalsound} we have to bring the logo and all the stuff uh back into it .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Oh , okay .
Marketing: Yeah . Definitely .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Okay .
Industrial Designer: Thank you . {vocalsound}
Marketing: Alright .
User Interface: {gap} uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah . That's okay .
User Interface: Ah .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: Well , I shall go to the next slide . Um
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: um , I still don't have any information about user requirements .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: I was thinking about just uh the basic functions and I got uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Oh , we decided upon that in the last meeting . Didn't we ?
User Interface: Yeah , but but then wh I don't know when there are new user requirements .
Project Manager: Oh , okay . Well , tha I didn't receive any new requirements or somethi
User Interface: I ha I ha I have the I have {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Just {disfmarker}
User Interface: nothing .
Project Manager: no , but we decided to use only b basic functions only .
User Interface: Well , I have here a couple of basic functions I could think of .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: I dunno if they're {disfmarker} maybe a little bit more , but {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Well we {disfmarker} maybe we can think of that later . W just {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: these are the ones you already summed up in the {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah , I I uh {vocalsound} well , I pointed them out here , just to make it a little bit easier .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Um Another function uh is {disfmarker} of course we already discuss it on the side . Um , I don't know what costs of it . Uh , I've no idea about it . Uh , I was also looking for what you said , for {disfmarker} I got an email uh uh about uh L_C_D_ in in in front of the remote control . I don't know if that's a good idea , or maybe it's a little bit too much for twelve and a half . Production .
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: If we got already uh something like a base .
Industrial Designer: Uh-huh .
Project Manager: That might get redundant also maybe . I don't know what kind of information it would {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah , I don't know . I d I uh ju I was just thinking about it . Then I got a pop-ups to go to the meeting . But {disfmarker}
Marketing: Mm yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah . Yeah , it's okay .
Industrial Designer: Maybe we can bring t uh uh teletext to the t {vocalsound} to the remote control . {vocalsound}
User Interface: The remote control .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Then you {disfmarker}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound} {gap} a little uh too {disfmarker} {vocalsound} A little bit {disfmarker}
Marketing: and then you've got a flag s {vocalsound} Very big R_C_ . Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay . {vocalsound} That's not {disfmarker} {vocalsound} It was not a good idea .
User Interface: A little bit too big , I think . Exactly .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Um , yeah . Well , the functions are are not more to discuss , I think .
Project Manager: No . No .
User Interface: It's it's just the base things we already discussed that the {disfmarker} no V_C_R_ or that kind of {disfmarker}
Marketing: No .
User Interface: uh , so that's very easy . Um {disfmarker}
Project Manager: But you do mention the next and previous uh button .
User Interface: Mm-hmm .
Project Manager: {gap}
User Interface: Well , that's next channel . I mean {gap} next channel .
Marketing: Next channel , previous channel .
Project Manager: Oh , okay , o okay okay .
User Interface: Uh {disfmarker} Um {disfmarker} oh , I I got an email with {disfmarker} {vocalsound} with an uh a remote control with a base .
Project Manager: Huh .
User Interface: So , it's uh just an idea . And I um {disfmarker} {vocalsound} uh thinked of the button sizes and I'm not sure uh if they have to be big or uh just small {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: But you're the expert . {vocalsound}
Marketing: I think it depends on the function .
User Interface: Well , I'm not a e I'm the expert for user-friendly , but not for trendiness .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: Maybe it {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Marketing: Well , if you save uh {disfmarker} Perhaps uh s tiny buttons aren't user-friendly , then we wouldn't im implement that of course .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound} Well uh {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: okay , that's your point . Um , yeah . Yeah , okay .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
User Interface: Yeah , I've nothing to {vocalsound} s
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Well , w when we only use basic functions , we have the possibility to make the buttons larger .
Marketing: Oh , that's right .
User Interface: Uh , with a little bit larger , yeah .
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: I thought so , but maybe with the {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Well , I think we already agreed upon the fact that the the the skip buttons and the cha and the volume buttons , th th those two have {disfmarker} yeah , they have to be large .
User Interface: Yeah , that groups .
Project Manager: Uh , I mean th th the the two two basic buttons , you know , the {disfmarker} to skip channels and to uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: Large ? Yeah .
Marketing: Yep .
Project Manager: I think {disfmarker} yeah , I don't know why , but I think that is {disfmarker} that's t trendy too ,
User Interface: Most {disfmarker} the most used uh buttons .
Marketing: Those are probably the the th
Project Manager: because that's the mo it {disfmarker} it {disfmarker} you know , it's uh acc acc um accentu uh , how do you say it ? It puts an extra accent on the the on the simplicity of our remotes to j to make these two most basic functions extra big , like t
Marketing: Yes .
User Interface: True . Yeah .
Marketing: Those are probably the b four most most used buttons on the th in the remote control .
Project Manager: Yeah . And you want to acc accentuate that , you know .
Industrial Designer: You did the research .
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} It's from your research . {vocalsound}
Marketing: Sorry ? Yeah , sure . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} So {disfmarker}
User Interface: Okay . Uh , that was all y
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: uh personal preference I didn't have .
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: I didn't had any time left .
Project Manager: No uh , that's coo it's cool .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} You don't care . No , {vocalsound} sorry . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Oh . Go away .
User Interface: It's there .
Marketing: Come on .
User Interface: Yeah , click on it .
Marketing: {gap} .
User Interface: Couple time .
Marketing: Oh , great . Well , I've done some research again about trends on the internet . Um I've done some investigation , and uh well I uh got some information from fashion watchers from Paris and uh Milan . {vocalsound} Some uh some findings {disfmarker} the most important thing is fancy look and feel of the remote control . Uh , well , we were going to imply that , so that's nice . The second important thing is uh innovative technology in the R_C_ . Uh , our market really likes really likes that . And uh the third point there in this uh order if {disfmarker} of importance , the third point , is a high ease of use . And uh , well , for the idea , I've put some trends uh for the market of elderly people .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Dark colours , simple recognisable shapes . So we probably won't do that .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: The younger market likes uh {disfmarker} Well , {gap} the {gap} themes of of this year are uh surprisingly fruits and vegetables and spongy material .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: I found this image , which is uh {disfmarker} Well , it symbolises the idea of fruits and vegetables . I don't see the spongy part in it . But with a little bit of fancy {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Well maybe c {vocalsound} then we have to do something with Sponge Bob then . {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Exactly . I got some ideas {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Uh well , yeah , pictures isn't really good word , but um
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: some symbols of fruits or vegetables maybe . Uh , catchy colours .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Fruit is uh yellow , green , red , whatever .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: So , remote controls in in catchy colours .
Project Manager: It doesn't stroke with the with the dark colours .
Marketing: Uh , no , we don't want dark colours .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Not the dark colours ? Okay .
Marketing: {vocalsound} No , I just put them there to uh , yeah , uh for general idea .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: And uh , the docking st
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: uh I think the spongy material is is very irritating for the uh remote control itself . But to {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , the {disfmarker} {vocalsound} To implement some spongy thing , maybe we can do it in the in the docking station . At the bottom of the docking station or whatever . And uh , we could bring one line with a dark colour uh to um uh p uh yeah {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: uh uh v how do you say ?
Project Manager: For diversity or something . Uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah , also a bit for elderly people who are a little bit crazy and want {vocalsound} maybe want a little younger design but still the dark colour .
User Interface: Well , how uh {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: I mean it it it reaches a different market uh , but it it it doesn't cost really much effort to b to uh bring uh like a black R_C_ on the market or whatever . Yes .
User Interface: But how do we use uh fruits and vegetables in Christ's {vocalsound} sake with {vocalsound} remote control ?
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: No , but I I I think that uh our design already resembles so a piece of fruit .
Marketing: Yeah , there's there's always a
User Interface: Uh , make it a banana ?
Project Manager: It's like a pear or something .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Well there there's always empty space of course on a remote control . I mean I think this part of the R_C_ uh well {vocalsound} the upper the upper part or whatever is uh is not not used with buttons , I guess .
Project Manager: No , I don't think you have to do it like {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: So you you can put some fruity things {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah , but it that doesn't have to remind you , you know , like explicitly of s our f of a of a specific piece of fruit , but just , you know , like the the the the round curves .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: No , of course not .
Project Manager: And so y I I think this {disfmarker} y it already sem resembles uh something like a pear to me or something .
Marketing: Especially i
User Interface: Yeah , but th {vocalsound} yeah , but that {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , yeah . Yeah , exactly .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah .
User Interface: Yeah , but that's {disfmarker}
Marketing: If we make it little bit greenish .
Project Manager: You do get the idea , eh ? The fruity kind of round {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah uh uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: 'Kay .
Marketing: A {vocalsound} and we could use {vocalsound} one of these for the uh w what is it ?
Project Manager: Yeah , uh {disfmarker} yeah , I don't know .
Industrial Designer: Grapes .
Marketing: Uh {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Uh , this is a b yeah . {vocalsound}
Marketing: Isn't {disfmarker} Wha whatever .
User Interface: But d don't we need a creative artist or something like that to m make it to feel like a a a a vegetable or fruit ?
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah , yeah . Of course we have uh {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , sure .
Project Manager: we have a very big uh the s
Marketing: Yeah . Well , w we can uh {disfmarker} w we can we can produce multiple uh multiple things .
Industrial Designer: For a big team of artists . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Of d design team , yeah .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: This is then the uh pear . I don't know the English word , so forget it .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Yeah , but {disfmarker} {vocalsound} It's pear , I guess .
Marketing: {vocalsound} And um , maybe , yeah , a b a banana is uh is n {vocalsound} not easy for a remote control , but m yeah .
Industrial Designer: But uh but I think we don't have to make
Project Manager: {vocalsound} No .
Industrial Designer: we can't make all uh ten designs . We have to make one design I th I I think .
Project Manager: No , but I think it's it's already what we were were up to .
Marketing: Mayb maybe two or three .
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: Uh , it's {disfmarker} it doesn't have to resemble uh what I already said , a specific piece of fruit , but just , you know , like a fruity thing going on .
User Interface: {gap}
Marketing: Yeah . No sure , but but {disfmarker}
Project Manager: And it's {disfmarker} it looks fruity to me .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: B but that's great , and and and what I was {disfmarker}
Project Manager: And uh , but I do like the {disfmarker}
Marketing: what what I was saying , the catchy colours {disfmarker}
Project Manager: yeah , I do like uh the f uh to {disfmarker} the idea of making a a y uh , a catchy colour design and a d because I do {disfmarker} I think a dark colour would be nice too .
Industrial Designer: But pictures of fruit , vegetables vegetables {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Maybe it's too much , you know .
User Interface: But , we we have to um {disfmarker} There have to be the the the the firm colours , our own uh colours has to be in it .
Marketing: Yeah , uh not really . Pictures was a was a bad word , but {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Okay , but what are the {disfmarker} This is yellow .
Marketing: Well we c yeah .
User Interface: Yellow , a Real Reaction .
Industrial Designer: Yes , you can put a logo on top of it .
Project Manager: But I don't think our our company colours are this fashionable .
Marketing: Yeah , sure .
User Interface: Uh , yeah .
Marketing: Maybe we can if if we got our docking station over here .
User Interface: {vocalsound} We uh f
Industrial Designer: Yes , it's really fruity . {vocalsound}
Marketing: I can't draw with this thing , but I'll try .
User Interface: A yellow do
Marketing: If this is our docking station , we can make our logo over here .
User Interface: Uh , yeah .
Marketing: It doesn't work . And then {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah , and the button then .
Industrial Designer: With a strawberry on top .
Project Manager: Yeah , on uh n uh on the bottom of the remote you can do {disfmarker}
Marketing: Well , the button button over here or whatever ,
User Interface: Okay , yeah .
Marketing: I don't know . On the front , of course , because else you can't find it .
User Interface: Okay .
Marketing: Well , that were my ideas a little bit .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: I'll close 'em down . Um , go away .
Project Manager: Okay , you {disfmarker} can you open the conceptual design presentation ?
Marketing: Conceptual design , yes .
Project Manager: See what was on the agenda .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Lazy . {vocalsound}
Marketing: The agenda .
Project Manager: This is his own remote . Because um , maybe we can start with the technical uh functions ,
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: but I don't think it's there {disfmarker} uh , yeah um , do we want to um use an L_C_D_ display , for example ?
Marketing: Well , it's nice , of course . But I don't I don't know what to display on it .
Industrial Designer: Only if we {disfmarker}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Me neither .
Industrial Designer: Maybe maybe we can make a T_V_ guide on it , for the channel you're on .
Marketing: I mean {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah , but it's so {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah , but it should be li like this big , and I don't think {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: No , no , only the T_V_ channel with the {disfmarker} with uh with {vocalsound} uh four programmes .
Project Manager: I don't think we should do it .
Industrial Designer: You can uh zap through them with the page up page down button .
Marketing: Yes sure , but it it has to to show an entire title of a programme or at least a q a quite quite large part of it and then you get a very large L_C_D_ screen , because {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Yes , it can {disfmarker} On your {disfmarker} No , on your mobile phone you can y you can read text also . So why not on your remote ?
Project Manager: Yeah , but {disfmarker} no . I do I think it's a bit redundant , actually .
Marketing: Yeah , I don't know .
Project Manager: And it's also not {disfmarker} I don't th even think it it looks s like sexy or something ,
User Interface: Well well what would you display on it then ?
Project Manager: it's {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Uh , programme uh information or or or or g or a guide
Marketing: Programme information .
User Interface: But is it {disfmarker} isn't that a already on T_V_ , a lot of new T_V_s ?
Marketing: But {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: on t on teletext , yes . Also on the internet .
Marketing: Well a lot a lot of T_V_s indeed show uh when you uh zap to a {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: But {disfmarker}
Project Manager: But you're already watching the T_V_ , you're not gonna watch your remote control .
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yes , but you also want to know what's next .
Marketing: But then we also uh w need to bring out a line of T_V_s which we were planning to ,
User Interface: Yeah ,
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: and we also have to {disfmarker} yeah .
Marketing: but whatever . Because the T_V_ has to send information back to the R_C_ , and I don't know if that's possible .
Industrial Designer: Yes , that's uh really possible . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yes , yes , o of course it's possible ,
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: but you gotta uh implement it in the T_V_s , and I don't think everyone's gonna buy a Real Reaction T_V_ within a month after the release of our uh remote control .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I really understand you want to make your job more exciting {vocalsound} by putting an L_C_D_ in it ,
User Interface: And I also {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: but I I really don't think it's a good n goo because it also doesn't stroke with {disfmarker} we wanted uh c When we talk about the materials , uh it's a good idea to use these plastic materials with soft rubber stuff on it . It was our idea , you know , to give it a more sturdy look and that you ca like you can throw with it .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: But I don't think a L_C_D_ display fits in that image . You know , it's like more vulnerable , and it adds nothing really , you know .
Marketing: That's true , that's true , it breaks f yeah , it it it's not very solid , it's uh frag fragile .
Project Manager: Yeah , yeah . You could make it , but it's just {disfmarker} it it doesn't {disfmarker} I don't think it {disfmarker} it's coherent with the design we're after .
Marketing: No . No . I don't think so ei either .
Project Manager: But that's my opinion . Well , you you y Okay , we can vote for it . You want the L_C_D_ display . I don't want to and {vocalsound} he doesn't , so it's up to him .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} No .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} If we wanna {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah , I dunno .
Marketing: {vocalsound} . Ah . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: And I've read somewhere that I've got some kind of veto veto uh rights .
User Interface: {vocalsound} . Oh , okay .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Bastard . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} So I can also say {disfmarker}
User Interface: We can {gap} you away .
Project Manager: But did we skip the {disfmarker} Yeah , you could do {disfmarker}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: m but what what i so what i but do you think we should {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound} Yeah , I don't know . Uh , uh I {disfmarker} i if it's it's a simple p
Project Manager: We're not even sure what what information we want to display on it . So {disfmarker}
User Interface: No , that that's right ,
Industrial Designer: No uh um {disfmarker}
User Interface: and uh I also have to think about new functions , maybe buttons or something like that to control it . Kind of L_C_D_ or something or {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Y yes , you can use uh buttons uh uh w that are already uh on the remote control for double functions .
Marketing: Yeah , I guess .
User Interface: But how does it display then ? W when I go to the second channel , what what does it show me ?
Industrial Designer: Uh , then you push a button . The title and the information about the programme .
User Interface: About that programme ?
Industrial Designer: But but uh {disfmarker} yeah , what he said was right , about the televisions , they have to be uh customised to the {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Nah , that's not gonna work .
Industrial Designer: But maybe in future it will be a giant hit , and when you are the first
Marketing: No .
Project Manager: Yeah . Oh , well uh I've seen it done before .
Industrial Designer: you have the biggest uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Do you know th like the the bigger rem uh universal remotes , they have d L_C_D_ displays ,
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: but then it's very functional to indicate which {disfmarker} what uh uh device you are controlling . So it's {disfmarker} that that's what I've seen .
Industrial Designer: Yes , you can put uh a little L_C_D_ display on it with uh with lots of information .
Marketing: Yeah , that's true , if you uh {disfmarker} Yeah .
Project Manager: But it just {disfmarker} it j it doesn't doesn't match with the {gap} our whole basic concept .
Industrial Designer: But uh I haven't thought about it . But whe but when you put a a a transparent uh plastic uh uh screen on top of it , it i it isn't vulnerable .
Project Manager: Well yeah , yeah , okay . That's maybe not the most important ,
Industrial Designer: You can throw with it and {disfmarker}
Project Manager: but it's just {disfmarker}
User Interface: Is it fashion ?
Project Manager: I don't think so .
Industrial Designer: When when you put uh maybe a colour L_C_D_ t uh screen on it , it's very special and very trendy to have uh a remote control from {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound} I don't know . That's not up to you . That's up to market if i if it's trendy .
Project Manager: Yeah , well do you ha do you have to {disfmarker} {gap} You haven't looked after the trendiness of L_C_D_ displays , have you ?
Marketing: {vocalsound} No . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound} {gap} {vocalsound} Because our our motto is we put fashion {disfmarker}
Marketing: Well , I think it's uh I think it's pretty trendy , to be honest , uh but um I don't know if if if {disfmarker} well , I'm coming back to the costs again , but I think uh we gotta build a b pretty cheap design to to stay within our limits . And I think uh especially colour L_C_D_ , which is indeed pretty trendy . But I don't think {disfmarker} Uh , I think it will be too expensive .
Industrial Designer: But uh I've got a {disfmarker} the email with uh with the possibilities . {vocalsound} And L_C_D_ was a possibility for the remote control .
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah yeah yeah .
Industrial Designer: So why don't we use it .
Project Manager: Yeah , but we're gonna {disfmarker} if it {disfmarker}
Marketing: Uh , did it say a price also uh for for uh monogramme uh L_C_D_ or uh coloured L_C_D_ ?
User Interface: Yeah , if you want to be trendy you have to be coloured . Coloured {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah really ,
User Interface: If you have black and white or something , or grey , that's {disfmarker}
Marketing: if y if you c i
Project Manager: Then uh then you better don't {disfmarker} yeah , d
Marketing: I in in two thousand and four you can't uh put something on the market which is a monogramme .
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Really . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: No , but it doesn't sa say anything about a colour or {disfmarker} But , mm , I alf I also got a possibility to put uh a scroll button on it . But {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Uh uh I really don't feel the whole idea of an L_C_D_ display .
Industrial Designer: I didn't think that {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Marketing: {gap}
Project Manager: I'm sorry . It can't co you cannot convince me . I don't know how {disfmarker} well how to {disfmarker} with you guys , but {disfmarker} I don't really feel it . We already {disfmarker} we're uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound} It's too much uh maybe uh with with the L_C_D_ and the docking station and {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah , we already have the the th th th base station gadgets ,
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: and want {disfmarker} and it {disfmarker} uh uh , do {disfmarker} it has to be a simple design , which sturdy , which soft {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Yes , but o on the {disfmarker}
Marketing: W we've we've gotta find a balance , of course .
User Interface: With one thing special .
Marketing: And I think {disfmarker}
User Interface: Not a whole package of specialty .
Project Manager: I don't think {disfmarker} I j uh , and really , I don't see how the the L_C_D_ display is gonna add anything , you know , on a design level . Uh , I think it's slicker to have no L_ CEDs .
Industrial Designer: No , when y
Project Manager: Y we want to {disfmarker} it's simplicity , w you have two big buttons and you can do whatever you want with these two buttons , so you don't need an L_C_D_ .
Industrial Designer: But it look {disfmarker} Yes , but that remote controls are already on the market . The simple {disfmarker}
Project Manager: It doesn't fit in our philosophy uh behind the whole remote .
Industrial Designer: Yes , but but when you want to have something special {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah , but we already have the docking station , which is {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Yes , but you had a picture of it from another company .
User Interface: And uh the {disfmarker}
Marketing: We have a pear .
Project Manager: {vocalsound} {gap} It has to be developed ,
User Interface: {vocalsound} Yeah . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: but {disfmarker} no , but it {disfmarker} that's {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
Project Manager: that's our that's our killer feature .
User Interface: It's just an it's just an idea .
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: That's our {disfmarker} what makes it special .
User Interface: It's a it's {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Yes , it was already made . Tha the remote control on the docking station .
Project Manager: Yeah , we're gonna develop our own r n docking station .
User Interface: True .
Marketing: Is that so ? Was it {disfmarker} {vocalsound} it wasn't just a prototype ?
User Interface: Well uh I uh {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: Yes , he have a picture of it .
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
User Interface: Yeah , I dunno .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
Marketing: Exactly , I've never seen it in a store .
Project Manager: Uh , but re we really have to cut this off ,
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: I re I know you {disfmarker} I I I I {vocalsound} I get the idea you really like it , you know , the the L_C_D_ thing , but I I think it's it's not a good idea , and we have already mentioned all the arguments . I don't {disfmarker} uh , do you guys agre How do you guys think ? I d
User Interface: No , it's too much .
Marketing: I think it's a little too much , yeah .
User Interface: It's overdone .
Project Manager: Okay , we s skip the {vocalsound} L_C_D_ display .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Okay . {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Okay .
Project Manager: I'm sorry , maybe you can do something if we are at your own place , or make it make it make it happen in your basement or something .
User Interface: {vocalsound} Democratically .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} No .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Mayb {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} {gap} . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: But {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} I will rule the world with it . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Probably so .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah .
Project Manager: Okay . But for the technical part . The m material , I think uh it was a good idea to use the plastic and uh the rubber . Uh
Industrial Designer: Yes , maybe a bit of a cushion is {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Yeah yeah yeah , p Exactly . This is what it w Yeah , but it it was already what we're uh we're after , you know , to give it uh , you know , the soft touch in your hands
Marketing: Yeah , for the spongy uh feel . {vocalsound} Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Yes .
User Interface: With a spongy Bob feel .
Project Manager: and also to , know , like {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: Yeah , that is y the b airbag kind of thing .
Industrial Designer: Like a b yes .
Project Manager: You can st throw it at your little brother's head .
User Interface: Yeah , you just can drop it . Yeah .
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah , airbag . If you drop it if you drop it the airbag comes out , yeah . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah . No no no , not that comfy .
User Interface: Yeah . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Maybe it {disfmarker}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: but then we have to look that it uh w uh will not um be too childish to see .
Project Manager: Yeah yeah . Yeah . Okay , that's a that's a good point . And that's why I like the dark t col dark colour bit , you know , because it may be {disfmarker} the design uh , it's uh maybe it is a bit of the {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
User Interface: But not black I think .
Project Manager: it's a bit nineties maybe , what we're what we're up to rat fun to this point .
Marketing: No .
User Interface: Well if if it's fruit and vegetables , it have to be colourful .
Project Manager: Yeah , that's that's true , but but it has to be a little big solid .
Marketing: Yeah , b yeah , that's what w I I was pointing at .
User Interface: But can we ge uh uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: It mustn't be too , n you know , th too overwhelming , then when you put it on your {gap} just {disfmarker}
User Interface: Can we combine it or something ? Uh with uh yellow and black ?
Project Manager: Yeah . Yeah , maybe so .
User Interface: Make it a bee ? {vocalsound} A bee . {vocalsound}
Marketing: What ? Oh , a bee . Oh . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: No , uh I don't like the yellow and black combination {gap} . But it is our company colours . Apparently . {vocalsound}
User Interface: Yeah , {gap} it's our {disfmarker} yeah . We we have to use yellow .
Industrial Designer: Yes , real real good colours . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Yeah . Hmm .
Industrial Designer: Hmm .
Project Manager: I don't like yellow , and uh maybe {disfmarker} I don't know .
Marketing: Well , we can as as I
Industrial Designer: But that's not really fruity .
Marketing: draw really nicely over there . {vocalsound} We can put the logo on our uh on our base station . Uh , yeah . And maybe very very tiny on the remote control itself .
Project Manager: But {disfmarker}
Marketing: But , i
Project Manager: Okay , but what {disfmarker} uh , what are other tef technical things we have to discuss ?
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: Uh fronts of the {disfmarker} We can have uh different uh uh fronts of the
Project Manager: Should we do that ?
Industrial Designer: telephone .
Project Manager: I don't think you {disfmarker} we should do that . Maybe just bring it out in different colours ,
User Interface: Different fronts .
Project Manager: but not af that you can switch fronts afterwards , that's also too much .
Marketing: Yeah . I guess that's that's enough .
Project Manager: People don't wanna spend more money on their remote {vocalsound} control , I guess .
Marketing: That's way too Nokia .
User Interface: Yeah . Uh , you can you can l uh let choose the customer which colour he wants , yeah .
Industrial Designer: Are these designs ?
Project Manager: Yeah , yeah .
Marketing: Yeah , definitely . Just bring more designs on the market .
User Interface: Yeah , Three three or four uh four uh colours , or something like that .
Project Manager: But uh , without {disfmarker} gon uh
Marketing: Why not , yeah .
Project Manager: okay . So , are we through the technical part then ?
Industrial Designer: Yes .
Project Manager: Okay . So we uh agreed upon uh n uh well , not u unanimously or how you call it , but {disfmarker} Yeah .
User Interface: Well , yeah ,
Industrial Designer: It {disfmarker} this a real uh young young and dynamic uh uh styles .
User Interface: the {disfmarker} Three to one . {vocalsound} That's {disfmarker}
Project Manager: The materials you uh mentioned in your your personal preferences were all {disfmarker} were quite okay .
Industrial Designer: {gap} Yes .
Project Manager: O o only only the last point your {disfmarker}
User Interface: And tita uh titanium , is {disfmarker} uh is is it a no ?
Industrial Designer: Yes , {gap} {disfmarker}
Project Manager: no titanium's not not out of question , I guess .
User Interface: Is {disfmarker} It's just like that , th this titanium .
Industrial Designer: But also w Yes , b bu but when we use s soft
Project Manager: But is it possible to use both the the plastic and so uh soft things and t p titanium , as well ?
Industrial Designer: mm {disfmarker}
Marketing: Sure .
Project Manager: Makes it in a homogeneous uh design .
Industrial Designer: Mm .
User Interface: No , not all , not all of them .
Industrial Designer: But it it {disfmarker} then it uh {disfmarker} you can't throw it it . It will uh make a huge noise or break other stuff
Project Manager: {vocalsound} {vocalsound} It will it will break other stuff w {vocalsound} when it's plastic , as well .
Industrial Designer: when you throw with uh titanium {disfmarker} {vocalsound} with your remote control .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: No uh ,
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Yeah . {vocalsound}
Industrial Designer: titanium is a bit uh it's a bit harder .
Marketing: Yeah , that's true .
Project Manager: No , but uh uh , you should ma Yeah .
Industrial Designer: But also on the colours , the young {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Okay , think of the possibilities and make it in {disfmarker} completely titanium . Well would it be more trendy ? More chic ?
Marketing: Yeah , I think it I think it does .
User Interface: Uh , I think titanium nowadays is way more often used than plastic .
Industrial Designer: Yes , but a titanium remote control , when you're uh watching T_V_ uh or your hands are a little bit sweaty , and the {disfmarker}
User Interface: In trendy things .
Marketing: Yeah , o On the other hand , if you want to make fruit {disfmarker} fruity stuff with uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah . It's cold in the winter . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah , but I I really like the idea of the the the plastic and the big kind of thing .
Industrial Designer: Yes . {vocalsound}
Project Manager: But the question is i then it's , you know , is is {disfmarker} it fits in our s philosophy to make it uh sturdy and simple and uh , know , like uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah , that's true , that's true .
Industrial Designer: Sports and gaming . Define
Project Manager: When you make it titanium , it becomes more like some kind of gadget you actually don't need . And when it's big and plastic , it's like some fun stuff you can always have around . It's always fun to have something big and plastic around .
User Interface: You have that uh M_P_ three player of Nike , I saw .
Marketing: Yes . Yeah .
User Interface: Isn't that titanium with a little bit of rubber ?
Industrial Designer: Yes , it's w but it is uh plastic .
User Interface: Isn't it {disfmarker} Is plastic ? Well , it's titanium looking .
Industrial Designer: Yes , w we can do that on the on the {disfmarker}
Marketing: What ?
User Interface: Yeah , he is . Here he is . Uh , the {disfmarker} I don't know if you know the M_P_ three player of Nike . 'Kay , uh that that's very uh with rubber , so it's very
Marketing: Oh , yeah . Okay , yeah .
Project Manager: {gap} Yeah , that's beautiful .
Marketing: Yeah , I see .
Industrial Designer: We can make this as a style too .
Marketing: Yeah , but but but {disfmarker}
User Interface: rough .
Industrial Designer: Uh , this is uh just a {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Oh , maybe th maybe this is an {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , I th I think that's difficult , because uh that's different material , and then you gotta have like uh uh uh two material lines of of of {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: No , we c we can make it from the same kind of plastic .
Marketing: Yeah , if it's just a colour uh which you uh which you change then , I guess it's it's nice to have one of these .
Project Manager: No , I do like the idea of maybe a t titanium kind {disfmarker} type of body w and then with s plastic colouration {gap} around it .
Industrial Designer: Uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Uh {disfmarker}
Project Manager: You know , like the the soft stuff ,
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: but I don't know if it's possible .
Industrial Designer: I don't have the information . Uh , I I didn't got it {disfmarker}
Project Manager: But you can't make the plastic give uh the ti titanium look .
User Interface: {vocalsound} True .
Industrial Designer: Yes .
Project Manager: But make it just like shiny .
Marketing: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: Yeah yeah , true .
Project Manager: Maybe we should uh shou
Industrial Designer: Like the M_P_ three player .
User Interface: Yeah , maybe that's good idea , yeah . But if you want to la uh yeah , last longer than two weeks or something like that , you can maybe {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: And uh and
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: maybe we sh should we t {gap} I don't know if we should talk about {disfmarker} uh , how how much time have we got left ?
Industrial Designer: Uh , in a lot of other uh
User Interface: I don't know .
Project Manager: Forty minutes .
User Interface: What time does {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: in a lot of other product uh categories like uh even in b in bags industry . Uh , they began with uh t typical uh leather bags , but then they became stylish , with all all si all sort of colours , and w kind of fon {disfmarker} of uh of fronts , like we can use on the telephone and it {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay .
Industrial Designer: Like Eastpack uh began a revolution with it with all this uh kind of bags and and colours and and {disfmarker}
Project Manager: {gap} You putting in different colours .
Industrial Designer: Yes , and and styles .
Project Manager: Okay .
Industrial Designer: They have uh also uh a kind of uh um uh roses on it , a and uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Uh yeah , yeah .
Project Manager: Okay . Yeah , but w yeah .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Well , it is . It's a possibility . But , let's think about the bas
Industrial Designer: Then we can always uh use the same design for a greater resemblance , but with new uh with new colours , new {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yes . New prints on it . Yep .
Project Manager: Mm-hmm , mm-hmm .
Industrial Designer: yes .
Project Manager: But wha th our basic idea {disfmarker} y I mean , you gonna {disfmarker} we're probably gonna have like two type of materials , like the d d b the plastic uh enclosure and then the the pads that surround it . And and pro and lights . We have to incorporate the lights too . But , uh do w gonna {gap} gonna {disfmarker} are we going to give it a two-tone colour look , like the the plastic mould is in in one colour and the s the cushion pads around it are in another colour ? Is that the idea ? Is that a good idea ?
Marketing: How do you mean ? Th th the uh base in a in another {disfmarker}
Project Manager: How many colours are we {disfmarker} how many colours are we gonna {disfmarker} we're uh uh f uh f
User Interface: The rubber .
Project Manager: Only five minutes left , by the way . How many colours are we gonna give it ?
Marketing: Yes .
Project Manager: Like two-tone colour ? T
Industrial Designer: There there are three uh components three components type .
User Interface: Yeah . Uh no , not too much I think .
Industrial Designer: You have the buttons , the the case uh itself , and the rubber and th
Marketing: How the buttons {disfmarker} yeah .
Project Manager: I think maybe the case itself should be in one colour and then the rubber of the buttons , {vocalsound} and the cushions as well should be in another colour .
Industrial Designer: Yes .
User Interface: Or you just make uh one colour , uh maybe with a a z a kind of like a big wave or something like uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay , but not more than {disfmarker}
User Interface: In in another colour .
Project Manager: Well , yeah , it's {gap} {disfmarker}
User Interface: Not more than two colours I think .
Project Manager: No .
User Interface: It's a g a little bit too flashy .
Marketing: No , definitely not .
Project Manager: Maybe we should talk about it on a l in a later meeting .
Industrial Designer: Yeah , or or when you use the buttons as black , it {disfmarker} you can use two colours as well uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yes , definitely .
Project Manager: Okay . But we have to uh think of some other uh important things .
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Uh {disfmarker} oh yeah , the the functionalities of the the buttons .
User Interface: The funct yeah , I was I was thinking about th the st do we still want a joystick idea .
Project Manager: No . {vocalsound}
Marketing: No , I think that's too vulnerable .
Project Manager: I think this is okay ,
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: the {disfmarker} so we have the basic . Then we have the numbers . We have the power button . We have we have a teletext button .
User Interface: The volume , teletext and {disfmarker}
Project Manager: And maybe want to access a a menu or something . Most T_V_s have a menu .
Marketing: Yeah , but that's that's {disfmarker} I was thinking that's gotta be on the television .
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Yeah , but I think you ha I really need a menu button .
User Interface: Yeah yeah yeah yeah , b
Project Manager: That's just i the only button {disfmarker} only {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah , but wha what kind of menu ?
Project Manager: You know , I {disfmarker}
User Interface: Is uh {disfmarker} isn't that different from every television ?
Project Manager: {vocalsound} No , I think most T_V_s have an uh a menu nowadays to access the uh uh screen settings . And so {disfmarker}
Marketing: Mm . {vocalsound} Yeah , if it's c if {disfmarker} Yeah , I think it's okay to to add a menu button for uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: But that that covers all the all the other settings . It covers everything then .
Marketing: and if the T_V_ doesn't have a menu , then {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: But then you have to put uh up and down and uh left and right {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: No , you can use the {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah , you can put that on the two eight four and six or whatever .
Project Manager: And you al can also use the normal skip buttons for that .
Industrial Designer: Okay .
Project Manager: Th in that way we have like only the numbers , the power button , skip and volume , and then uh uh ten uh rem
Marketing: Mm , yeah . A mute and a teletext and a menu .
Project Manager: uh yeah , mute . A teletext and a menu , and then then i that's it .
User Interface: Mute .
Project Manager: It's all we need .
Marketing: That's all .
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Hmm .
Project Manager: Okay , uh another stuf some stuff {vocalsound} about the the the design of the docking station .
Marketing: Great . Yeah .
User Interface: Okay , that's not mu not much functions . So {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Something important about a s uh , no , uh which sh uh should remind us of the remote itself , I guess .
Marketing: Yeah , definitely .
Project Manager: Uh , in one colour .
Marketing: Are we gonna do something with the uh spongy thing there ?
Project Manager: Just use {disfmarker} I think the spongy thing already um comes forward in the in the in the cushions , pads and things on the s uh side .
Industrial Designer: Uh {disfmarker}
Marketing: Yeah , that's true , that's true .
Project Manager: And we will make it spongy and {disfmarker} and uh and uh well , the fruity thing is just the shape should be fru i did {disfmarker} I think this is kind of fruity , you know . Just round shapes with uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , it's kinda fruity , and with th with catchy colours uh uh w
Project Manager: {vocalsound} Yeah , but we're gonna have to {disfmarker} we really have to think {disfmarker} I think colours is very important , because it has to be flashy , but {disfmarker} and but it d it doesn't have to be annoying , that when you uh , know , some things is just over the top , and when you have it on your table for more than two weeks , you {disfmarker} {gap} it just gets annoying , because it's so big and flashy .
Marketing: Yeah , definitely .
Project Manager: Uh , it has to be some level of subtlety , but we have to {disfmarker} still have to think of how we manage to uh to get to that .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Okay . Guess we're through then .
Marketing: Okay .
User Interface: Okay .
Marketing: I guess so .
Project Manager: But we {disfmarker} I think also we just {disfmarker} so we have to do something with colour but also , I I think we have to keep the dark colour thing in mind . I think that's uh adds to the {disfmarker}
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yes .
Project Manager: too much colour maybe m um {disfmarker}
User Interface: Too much colour , i it uh {disfmarker} when you got it in a living room , it's too much maybe
Project Manager: But our des design experts will uh work that out .
Marketing: Yea yeah .
User Interface: . It has to be {disfmarker}
Project Manager: Okay , well I think the meeting will be over within a minute .
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yep .
Project Manager: So we will wrap up .
Marketing: Something like that .
Project Manager: Or is there anything we'd like to discuss ? That's right .
Marketing: I guess not .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: Do you , guys ?
User Interface: No .
Marketing: No ?
Project Manager: Okay . Well , you will read the minutes uh in the {disfmarker} you can find them in the {disfmarker}
User Interface: Oh , okay , yeah .
Marketing: In the shared folder .
Project Manager: pro probably . Yeah {disfmarker} uh no , for su for sure because I'm will now type them out .
Industrial Designer: What are we going to do now ?
Project Manager: Uh , y yeah .
Marketing: You'll see in you email , I guess .
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: I think uh {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
Marketing: Yeah , I don't know . I don't know .
User Interface: {vocalsound} I hope so . And the other thing is that you don't have kind of prototype or something like that . You see a kinda prototype you can {disfmarker} a little bit more uh {disfmarker}
Industrial Designer: I will make one in the next uh twenty minutes . {vocalsound}
User Interface: Yeah . {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound} Construct one , yeah .
Project Manager: But {gap} toilet paper roll and uh {disfmarker}
User Interface: With you laptop ? {vocalsound} Yeah . {vocalsound}
Marketing: {vocalsound}
Project Manager: Okay .
User Interface: Oh my God .
