Conceptual Design 

How to specify the user interface of a remote control

 

In this second design phase your team will work on the conceptual design.

You, as user interface designer, have to come up with the conceptual user interface.

Remember from the explanation of the general design method (check your mailbox) that the conceptual specification of the user interface of the coffee machine was: on/off switch and on/off light. The user interface of a remote control may be somewhat more complicated, however.

You are asked to:

  1. Search the web for inspiration from similar devices (go to the home page of the web browser).
  2. Put your findings down in the pre-structured PowerPoint slides, which will be sent to you by e-mail.
  3. Save the PowerPoint slides in the shared folder on your desktop.
  4. Prepare your presentation for the next meeting.
