User Interface: I is there a matter for a new remote control ? Project Manager: if it is trendy original I d fulfil the user needs User Interface: Is it a single device remote control or is it a multidevice remote control ? Project Manager: We have to discuss that point User Interface: this is not defined at all ? Project Manager: you you can suggest points like this So what what so we have to decide for example if it can control one device or multiple So what is what are your ideas about that ? Maybe I can have the your opinion from the marketing side ? User Interface: Well do we sell other stuff ? if if we bundle the remote control with something to sell then it could be a single device otherwise it could be programmable one otherwise who would buy a remote control from us Project Manager: so if it selled by its own i it it would rather be for multiple device So maybe it should be for multiple devices And do you have any ideas of design ideas or any technical requirement we we should fulfil ? Industrial Designer: I think we should not have too many b for my part I think User Interface: No I couldn I can not fi think of any requirements right now Industrial Designer: If we do not have so many buttons could be nice Project Manager: And do you have it also to be to be lighted in order to be used in the dark ? Might be a good idea And do you have any any idea of the trend the trend in domain what it should not it should look like or things like that ? Industrial Designer: Something which is not squarey maybe not a box User Interface: Something like that least fits in your hand Project Manager: So Fit in your hand And also it have i it may be it may be important for the remote control to be To to resist to various shocks that can happen if it fall Industrial Designer: And I think we should have a device Project Manager: Maybe it is original because you can use it in your in your bath whereas the others can not Maybe waterproof would be very original Havin having a waterproof remote control so that the people can use it in their bath User Interface: B it seems so but if you do not have an waterproof remote control it means you can just cover it with some plastic and you can sort of f Project Manager: but it is still something you have to buy and that is not maybe very User Interface: And and that is one of the that is one of the shock I mean there are people that have a remote control and they are worried that it is going to break and they put some extra plastic around it That is people they actually do it themselves Project Manager: But maybe we can bulk it with already this plastic thing and the waterproof stuff as well User Interface: I it will look a bulky in that case Project Manager: Maybe we can sell all that together so so plastic protection and and a waterproof box as well That might be good track to follow User Interface: Like as an optional thing Project Manager: Optional or selled with it ? Industrial Designer: And I I think we should have something most of the time I I lose my remote control We should have s special bu button on the TV to make the remote control beeping Project Manager: Maybe we can have But we do not design the TV Maybe we can have something you whistle and the remote control beep So we can have a whistle remote control ? I do not know whistleable ? Th Whistle tracking Whistle tracking remote control That is a good idea that is very original and that is can improve User Interface: That is that is quite cool but of course we you do not normally need any audio recording stuff on your remote control right ? So i it is just going to add t to the cost Project Manager: but s still we have to mm we have to have an advantage over our competitors I think this is a good advantage
Given the customer demand and conferees personal experiences, several designing requirements were proposed during the discussion. The remote control was decided to be adaptable to multiple devices with few buttons, be able to be lighted in the dark and held in hand, and be both water-proof and shock-proof along with a whistle tracking system, based on which advantage over competitors might well be gained at the price of a rising production cost.

Professor E: And and the I mean the other side to it was the what which is where we were coming from I will I will talk to you more about it later comment is that is that there s there s the radio stations and television stations already have stuff worked out presumably related to you know legal issues and and permissions and all that I mean they already do what they do do whatever they do So it s it s So it s so it s another source So I think it s something we should look into you know we will collect what we collect here hopefully they will collect more at UW also and and maybe we have this other source But I think that it s not unreasonable to aim at getting you know significantly in excess of a hundred hours I mean that was sort of our goal The thing was I was hoping that we could in the under this controlled situation we could at least collect you know thirty to fifty hours And at the rate we are going we will get pretty close to that I think this semester And if we continue to collect some next semester I think we should PhD C: Right I was mostly trying to think `` OK if you start a project within say a month you know how much data do you have to work with And you you want to s you want to sort of fr freeze your your data for awhile so right now and we do not have the transcripts back yet from IBM right ? Do Oh do we now ? Professor E: Well we do not even have it for this f you know forty five minutes that was PhD C: So not complaining I was just trying to think you know what kinds of projects can you do now versus six months from now and they are pretty different because Professor E: So I was thinking right now it s sort of this exploratory stuff where you you look at the data you use some primitive measures and get a feeling for what the scatter plots look like and and and and meanwhile we collect and it s more like three months from now or six months from now you can you can do a lot of other things PhD C: Cuz I m not actually sure just logistically that I can spend you know I do not want to charge the time that I have on the project too early before there s enough data to make good use of the time And that s and especially with the student for instance this guy who seems anyway I should not say too much but if someone came that was great and wanted to do some real work and they have to end by the end of this school year in the spring how much data will I have to work with with that person And so it s Professor E: i so I would think exploratory things now three months from now I mean the transcriptions I think are a bit of an unknown cuz we have not gotten those back yet as far as the timing but I think as far as the collection it does not seem to me l like unreasonable to say that in January you know ro roughly which is roughly three months from now we should have at least something like you know twenty five thirty hours PhD C: And we just do not know about the transcription part of that Postdoc B: we need to I think that there s a possibility that the transcript will need to be adjusted afterwards and es especially since these people will not be used to dealing with multi channel transcriptions

#Person1#: What kinds of Tv programes do you enjoy watching? #Person2#: I like current affairs programes and documentaries, especially wildlife ones. How about you? #Person1#: I like those kinds of programes too. They're very informative. I think that many people underrate the education value of Tv. #Person2#: I agree. People often criticize Tv for showing too much sex and violence. #Person1#: Yeah. And that's so funny because most people prefer watching sex and violence to watching something more educational! #Person2#: Right. You can't blame the tv stations for showing popular kinds of programes. They need to make money from advertisements shown during and between programes. #Person1#: In my country, there's a time limit on the advertisements that can be shown. I think it's about six minutes per hour. #Person2#: That's great idea. But don't the Tv station lose a lot of money because of that? #Person1#: No. they don't. they simply charge higher prices at peak times. Is there no limit on the amount of advertisements that can be shown on Tv in your country? #Person2#: Not as far as I know. We have so many advertisements . the interruptions are unbearable sometimes! That's one reason that many people prefer satellite or cable Tv, where you pay a fixed amount each month. #Person1#: Some people have satellite and cable Tv in my country, but people don't seem to keen to pay for their Tv programes. Besides, the terrestrial channels offer a good range of programes. #Person2#: Well, there's a wildlife documentary on Tv in a few minutes. Shall we?
#Person1# and #Person2# both like educational programs. #Person1#'s country has a time limit on the advertisements, and people aren't keen to pay for TV programs, while #Person2#'s country doesn't have a limit, but people prefer satellite or cable TV. #Person2# suggests watching a wildlife documentary on TV.

Project Manager: that it it it it stands up you have to put it on its So it is like a vase or something you put on a table no no put stuff inside it But it is like like a statue or something Industrial Designer: More like a joystick then Marketing: I see what you mean yep User Interface: It is like you have four phones Something like that Project Manager: but but you also can put it somewhere near the window in Marketing: If you do that but I do not know if that is possible within the production cost of twelve and a half Euros Project Manager: That it is it is fashionable Marketing: I in in the base we could like make a button and if you push it the remote control itself s makes noise That is probably stupid but as I found here fifty percent was it fifty ? Industrial Designer: But that is that is fun for the first time and then the second Marketing: fifty percent fifty percent often loses remote control Project Manager: but but when you when it gets lost how can you press the button to make it Marketing: No of the base the the the the the the the thing you put it in Project Manager: that is kind of nice Marketing: If an a button in in that Project Manager: And then also you do not even need batteries because you can make it chargeable Marketing: you can ma make rechargeable one Why not Project Manager: that w but the pro No well I think that it might be t p Well nee but we do not Maybe you but we do not know much about production cost but when you you can imagine that when you spend twenty five Euros on a remote control and it is a basic remote control then the then the money there must be money to spend on that kind of st you know rechargeable units Marketing: It should only cost twelve and a half Euros of course Aye ? Project Manager: but we would d ma we would do it in Taiwan and So it is not going to be that expen I I think it is a great idea User Interface: It should be possible I think it is a good idea Project Manager: S some kind of be I have never seen that before and you make it be you see it with the mo the mouses nowadays User Interface: To make a base or something ? Industrial Designer: Yes but is that handy ? Project Manager: Well I well it is really ch you can recharge it so you ha never have the battery problem That is one User Interface: It is it is it is it is Project Manager: And you can always find your remote control up User Interface: it is not the purpose to be handy it is Industrial Designer: But but remote controls remote controls nowadays can can last two years three years with with t two batteries Project Manager: Well maybe you could when that is when it is too costly you could probably skip the recharger but you will you do need also an also you would need a battery in the the base unit as well you know Does it makes it kind of Marketing: Well y you you could connect that to two hundred to twenty volts of course User Interface: Mm but that is not it is ugly I think Project Manager: but then it is very easy to make it also a rechargeab I do not think that is going to cost much to make it also a recharge function in it Marketing: On the other hand if you do not do it we can also make a nice bay I mean it looks trendy and still still put a bleep function in it but I think the bay is definitely Project Manager: I think it is a good idea And make it you know we we Well we it is it is not a t a most costly remote control We can save on the on the functions We just put some simple button in make it big and sturdy nothing more and just make s sure there is some noise that it can make or probably some kind of cheap light thing around it or that it that it lights up it is also nice And if you put it away I think it is w we have to we that is it is not a easy market We have to something special And for twenty five Euros people want something remote c special from your mote control and we can not deliver that in r with regards to the functions because we are not going to put Marketing: With eye candy ear candy whatever definitely Project Manager: And then when make it you know nice looking shape and this and then you also you got the standup thing I think I think it is a good idea User Interface: it must be must be a gadget to have Project Manager: Oh if it let us well we will see what is possible concerning the the costs and if it is possible we will do that And we even try to save up on other stuff to make sure we can do such a thing And the first thing we the most likeable thing to to n to skip is then probably the recharge function or something If that is too expensive we will not do that
Project Manager believed that money spent on the rechargeable units was necessary because other elements of the remote control were just basic. In addition, Project Manager thought it would not cost much if the product was produced in Taiwan. However, it was acknowledged that cost could probably be a concern so he/ she decided to only do that if the cost was fair.
