  Project Manager: {vocalsound}
  User Interface: {vocalsound}
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: Here's the project finance uh which, of course, we all have to think about when we design this thing. Um selling price is supposed to be twenty five Euro. Uh profit aim for the company is fifty million Euro,
  Marketing: Mm-hmm. {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: the market range unlimited meaning international
  Marketing: Okay.
  Project Manager: and the production cost should not exceed {disfmarker} hopefully should be less than twelve fifty Euro.
  Marketing: Mm'kay that should keep everybody on their toes and challenged.
  Project Manager: Mm-hmm.
  Marketing: Profit. Um is fifty mm.
  Project Manager: So these are all things, of course, to remember with the budget and when you design {vocalsound} to materials, cost, etcetera. Now, uh the discussion I guess is um does anyone of you have experience with remote control?
  Marketing: Oops.
  Project Manager: I exp I s'cause we we use'em {disfmarker} we use'em, right, everyday.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, of course, using remote control. Yeah.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Project Manager: And um now having used a remote control for years does anybody already have like an idea like things you didn't like with it, things you would like to change, things you would like to improve with this thing ye any first ideas? Would you like it to be smaller, bigger,
  Industrial Designer: Uh.
  Project Manager: have more have more buttons on it or maybe clearly {disfmarker} better marked buttons, you know, things like that?
  User Interface: Yeah, I {disfmarker}
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  User Interface: Yes, I I feel that all the remote should be very compact.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  Project Manager: Small, right. Mm-hmm.
  User Interface: Yeah, those which we get here nowadays it's very long.
  Project Manager: Mm-hmm.
  User Interface: And um and it should have multi-purpose. Like uh the remote control which we use for T_V_, it shou uh it should be used f uh for some other purpose also, like controlling the uh temperature inside the house or for air-conditioners, or for heating system.
  Project Manager: Mm-hmm.
  Industrial Designer: Audio player. Oh. Okay.
  Project Manager: So it should be a multi-functional uh gadget that would um control all your household uh uh machines basically.
  User Interface: Yes, exactly Yes.
  Industrial Designer: Hmm.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Divides us {disfmarker}
  User Interface: Yeah. Exactly.
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound} Yeah. Yeah.
  Marketing: {vocalsound} At um twelve fifty Euros per {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
  User Interface: {vocalsound}
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: Well.
  Marketing: Well who knows if we get a really good designer maybe we can do that.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  Marketing: {vocalsound} We certainly can try to {disfmarker} I agree with her that to market something successfully it should do some more things.
  Project Manager: It should be something new {disfmarker} it should be s it it should do something different than than just what we have.
  Marketing: That's right.
  Project Manager: Now, of course, the other thing to think there is maybe the design.
  User Interface: Yeah.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, of course.
  User Interface: Yeah, design should be, yeah {disfmarker} it should be different. All the {disfmarker} almost all the remotes {disfmarker}
  Project Manager: Like trendy no like f for earlier we saw maybe it should be something trendy you know. Maybe it should {disfmarker} different colours or materials or you know.
  User Interface: Yes, exactly.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, maybe ten {disfmarker} I do yeah, colours
  User Interface: Are different shapes.
  Industrial Designer: and al shapes also. Yeah.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Project Manager: Um so yeah shapes right, you know, like kidney shape feels better in your hand or something, you know.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah of course yeah.
  Marketing: Yeah okay, friendly shape, that would help.
  Project Manager: Yeah.
  Marketing: I think another thing that would help is um if it beeps when you clap,
  Project Manager: Yes.
  Marketing: because I think one of the big things that happens is people lose them. They can't find it.
  Project Manager: {vocalsound} That is true,
  User Interface: {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: because they put a newspaper or they put it behind a plant or, we you know, whatever.
  Marketing: {vocalsound}
  Industrial Designer: Yeah. {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: And and they {disfmarker} suddenly the phone rings and they want to turn the T_V_ off and they say, where the hell is my {vocalsound} my remote control yeah?
  Marketing: Mm-hmm.
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: Well or yeah or if it's really, if it's really in a dark spot that it gives out a a sound or a signal.
  Marketing: So some {disfmarker} {vocalsound}
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, some beep or something like that,
  Project Manager: Yeah. Mm-hmm.
  User Interface: Or a b
  Marketing: Uh so, so it's really the beep or, or a light should blink.
  Industrial Designer: so that we can go {disfmarker}
  Project Manager: So if lost {disfmarker} If lost uh signal with b throw signal, you know.
  User Interface: Should ha
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  User Interface: A fluorescent signal, yeah.
  Marketing: Mm'kay.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, maybe it should have a light so that we can, we can just recognise where it is.
  Project Manager: Exactly, I mean just {vocalsound} that's what I'm saying.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, yeah. May not be beep.
  Project Manager: I'm just saying throw signal meaning just whether it's a beep or whether a light or {disfmarker}
  Industrial Designer: Beep or uh it's a light, maybe it's a light.
  Marketing: And do you think a good c c um clue for that is that it would respond to a clap or it would respond to your voice or it would respond {disfmarker} what what should you have to do to make it beep or blink?
  Project Manager: Okay, my {disfmarker} my idea is maybe that the minute it's really hidden, in in other words if it's like in a dark spot, uh meaning you know like a newspaper is on top, a sweater is on top or it it's behind a plant, at that moment it's it's like, it's like um, what you call it {disfmarker} a light s sensors, you know?
  Marketing: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
  Project Manager: In in that moment it has a sensor, i it it gets a certain darkness, it ge has a sensor and it gives out a signal whether that be a light signal or a beep,
  Marketing: Okay so {disfmarker}
  User Interface: Yes.
  Marketing: Okay.
  Project Manager: I mean, that we can discuss that later, you know.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, probably {disfmarker} yeah, probably it's a {disfmarker} yeah, yeah.
  User Interface: Yeah. And uh {disfmarker}
  Marketing: So the light sensor would activate the signal.
  Project Manager: That's right. You know there would be {vocalsound} {disfmarker}
  Industrial Designer: Mm-hmm.
  Project Manager: right you have to have some kind of sensor and I I think uh voice or clapping it's not specific enough. Uh I know there are the lamps and stuff, you know, you can clap on and off,
  Marketing: Mm-hmm.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Project Manager: but I think they only work to certain degree and {disfmarker}
  Marketing: But it could be someplace really obvious and you still wouldn't be able to find it.
  Project Manager: What with {disfmarker}
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, of course, that didn't {disfmarker}
  User Interface: Then, in that case {disfmarker}
  Marketing: Well, because you're s because you're silly. Because people are silly.
  Industrial Designer: I i we can't do it.
  Project Manager: Oh yeah well, but then those people {disfmarker} we can't help everybody. {vocalsound}
  Marketing: I mean it could be on {disfmarker} well, i if it were like on top of your bookcase and you usually kept it on the coffee table
  Industrial Designer: {vocalsound}
  Marketing: um {vocalsound},
  Project Manager: Okay we have uh {disfmarker}
  Marketing: you know, well {disfmarker} maybe we have to move along, okay.
  Project Manager: yeah, we have to move along, but I think we have some good good points to start with here.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, good point.
  Project Manager: Okay, the next meeting will be in thirty minutes. I think you all {disfmarker} did you get uh notices on your computer for this? Okay so well, you got the notice um
  Industrial Designer: Me yeah.
  User Interface: Yes.
  Project Manager: {disfmarker} uh. The working design, I guess that's the function I_D_ {disfmarker} uh who is this? The industrial designer {disfmarker} That's you.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah. Yeah, it's functional de yeah, exactly, technical.
  Project Manager: Okay. So, we looking for a working design when we come back.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  Project Manager: {vocalsound}
  Industrial Designer: Uh working design, yeah, it's it's uh mainly technical-functional design.
  Project Manager: Then {disfmarker} And then the technical funct you are the technical function,
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, functional design,
  Project Manager: so so you are the working design.
  Industrial Designer: and you {disfmarker}
  Project Manager: So you have a working design and then a functional design.
  User Interface: Okay.
  Project Manager: And the marketing manager is coming up with some user requirement specification, like friendliness, and what we just discussed in general. That would be your idea. And, of course, price. That it, that it, that the price is a good price. I mean, the price is given, but, that was {disfmarker}
  Marketing: Mm-hmm. We have to justify that price by having sufficient features to make it sell at that price.
  Project Manager: That's right. That's right.
  User Interface: {vocalsound}
  Project Manager: And, you know, specifi you you will get specific um instructions for that. I think that's the end of the show. Yeah. So um {vocalsound} we have {disfmarker} well, we have a twen two two two three minutes. Um any questions at this point? Or uh suggestions?
  Marketing: Mm.
  Project Manager: I think {disfmarker} basically basically you will get instructions to work with and if you have any questions uh, uh I guess, you can uh {disfmarker}
  User Interface: Okay.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah.
  Marketing: Okay, I think I have enough to think about'til our next meeting.
  Project Manager: Mm-hmm.
  Industrial Designer: Yeah, even I have.
