Industrial Designer
Industrial design involves creating designs
that are appealing and that function easily and efficiently. An industrial
designer and an industrial engineer explain how mathematics is an essential
component of creating good designs. Bicycle designers demonstrate how the
designs of mountain and road bicycles differ mathematically, and why the
differences are important to the function of the bike. Math Concepts include:
computation/estimation, decimals, percent, scale models, ratio/proportion, and
measurement.
In short: the Industrial Designer (ID)
focuses on the utility, the components, the material, the characteristics and
the form of the remote control.
