Industrial Designer: I will go first Can I grab the Thanks What do I have to press ? Oh F eight ? Yep there we go this is the working design presented by me the Industrial Designer extraordinaire Kay this is where I went a bit mad with PowerPoint so What the first thing question I asked was what are we trying to design ? Well a device which basically just sends the signal to the TV to change its state whether that be the power or the channel or the volume everything is just some sort of signal to change the state of the TV or other appliance that it is sending the signal to so I decided I would have a look at what th other people have designed and try and take some inspiration from that But although we will want to be taking ideas from other people we want to make sure that our design stands out and I thought that was something that well it was not really my area because I am dealing with the inside really So I ran out of time so I could not do this one as fun as the last one and I found out that most controls use some form of infrared to send signals to the TV presumably because of the cost issue of something like the same thing that computers use wireless and you do not need to send very much information most of them are powered by some form of battery Now our one I am I am not sure whether we want to look at the size issue because most of them are powered by triple A batteries but those can be quite bulky so I d I did not know if you wanted to look at something else so we could shrink down the size of the control
Marketing: Mmhmm Could I can I interject to ask a question there is that appropriate ? You are saying the triple A batteries are small or the surrounding it ?
Industrial Designer: no no if you if you look at if you look at most remote controls they are quite they are quite chunky and that is because of the size of the batteries they have to be obviously this certain size to fit those batteries in
Marketing: Right the triple As are the smallest you can get are they not right ?
Industrial Designer: well you can you can get the sort of circular round ones but I am just wondering about power consumption and how much you need to send the data across and d which leads sort of onto the next point about them being small and easy to carry round now the ones at the moment are small but I was just wondering if we could look at something a bit smaller Now the main components I came up with were obviously the power source for the batteries because otherwise it is not going to work as I said about the w which batteries we were going to choose we can discuss that later and then you obviously need something to decode the information that you are putting in from from the controller Now these have a wireless range of up to about five metres which is sort of suitable for anyone who is watching the TV unless they are in a cinema which not most people do so as we are applying to the most audience that should be fine And then I was just had a quick look at the external design but I d I left that mostly to the interface designer And so this is what I had as the basic idea of what we want to do It is not a proper circuit I am not sure if it would work or not I am not even confident that those are the real the real way you would wire it up but anyway we have just got the the power going to the infrared bulb with the chip and the UI interface which would basically when you when you pressed anything it would the chip would convert it into some form of IR data which could be decoded by the TV receiver which obviously means that we are going to have to conform to whatever whatever form of communication that the TVs are already using and since that that is another use and reason to use that infrared because that is what all TVs use at the moment And then finally we want the it to be available to a wide audience at a low cost so all the components that I have put forward are low in cost so that that should be good it should should be different enough from the alternative products to get a good consumer base we were talking about it before and also just something that I was thinking about because they are small they are also easy to lose so if we could look into some way of d do not know some antigoing down the side of the sofa thing that you could have I th that was just sort of a general point there
Marketing: That is a very important part it came up in our market research findings too so I can refer to that whenever you like me to present
Industrial Designer: Alright and that is that is what I came up with there so if you want to
Project Manager: would you like to continue on from that ? Or maybe move the laptop over
User Interface: that is with me further Oops Why is it not working ? F eight right ? Mm why is it in the right ?
Marketing: No The plug has not come out at the bottom has it ? No
Industrial Designer: No no it is just
User Interface: Actually mm some of my points might overlap with what Williams just mention but basically my method was like whatever brainstorming we did in the last meeting just a couple of valuable points and started developing on that and there might be some missing loops in this thing which I think we will take a feedback from the marketing because I have not had some marketing data and basically every product is marketable So purpose as William already said I would put it to simplify the interaction with TV to make make it as simple as possible And to summarise I I would say it is it should be userfriendly by being easy to use rather than having a lot of complex button because you can have an engineering maybe having hundred buttons and maybe having a remote control which has the main features like volume control or channel ch changing the channel or whatever But we are to to make it unique so that people want to buy it will this two features together So what the concept is to have a fliptop model The main functions such as which are like often used will be on the top and the complex functions which say you you can say like the y young generation or trendy generation want to pr say programme their favourite channels or whatever can be put in the middle part of the f fliptop So it is like it could be accessed by a wide ra range of audience and we can punch in new f features such as added features such as shock proof body and maybe a design to appeal to a lot of people Findings most people prefer us userfriendly rather than complex remote controls because there are times like people have used a remote control for say a year or something and they they are not used maybe thirty to forty percent of the buttons so it is not of no use of punching in the trying to put in those things in on the top of the remote control and try to confuse the user As we saw we we have to make a profit also so we we can maybe go for an economies of a higher production mm by fifty million we said ? with that I think we will be able to achieve economies of scale also so we can give in add in more features and make it less costly that is so this is if you ask me personally I would make fliptop with a trendy design and s maybe we we should look at also like the buttons whe whether they are like soft or little hard because they are times when the buttons tend to be a bit hard after continuous use usage and all that So in overall a simple and userfriendly design any comments like if you want ?
Project Manager: Kay I think we will chat about it at the end | On battery issue, Industrial Designer expressed a desire to minimize the size of the battery. Meanwhile, cost, power consumption, wireless range and data transmission were supposed to be considered. User Interface's presentation followed. The remote control design would be simplified and user-friendly. To make the style more trendy, User Interface decided on a flip-top model. |

Marketing: Ha Mm Right I have been searching the current trends both on the web and via fashionwatchers and the findings are that the first thing to aim for is a fashion fancy look and feel Next comes technologic technology and the innovations to do with that And th last thing is the easy to use factor fancy look and feel goes far beyond the functionality of the thing but I suppose that is included in in the ease of use our fashionwatchers in Milan and Paris have decided well noticed that f the fruit and vegetable theme is the is the current trend and and therefore we need to go for that if we want you know wh whatever our motto is For fashion we go for fashion The fashion in electronics So we want to put the fashion electronics we need to go fruit and vegetables And also go for a spongy feel so the the question of our technology whate is Industrial Designer As to the material should be limited to I do not know how spongy it can be should discuss this together I do not know how spongy can be achieved but apparently that is the way to go I I have been thinking about this fruit and vegetable thing and I prefer fruits to vegetables but that is just a personal opinion I think people like to have a fruit instead of a vegetables in their sitting room those are just suggestions and also we need to decide whether this should be printed so that still has to do with the material discuss should we print the fruit stuff or should the actual remote look like a fruit ? and finally again with the spongy It has to be technologically innovative so maybe again our Industrial Designer should look into that or find come up with a solution that is better than mine to summarise these are the points that need to be touched in order to get a good decision and hopefully our User Interface has more to say about the matter Thank you for your attention
Project Manager: I think it is the next it is the blue one
User Interface: Oh there we go Well so that fruit and vegetables thing huh I actually was not aware of the new trends in electronics
Marketing: Neither was I Well it is a trend in fashion in clothing and fabrics
Project Manager: but you are not going to wear your remote control | Marketing proposed that the fancy look and feel were more important than the functionality of the product. The fruit and vegetable theme was the current trend, and marketing himself preferred fruits to vegetables. Therefore, how spongy the material could be should be taken into consideration when choosing the materials. The potential materials to accomplish the fruit and vegetable theme could be a sort of rubber, which was used in the stress balls. The alternative option was to use a cover for it, and choose a colour that fits one's sitting room. |

Sandra: What do you think?
Olivia: Hm, not sure. It sounds really cool, but isn't it dangerous?
Sandra: Well, it can be, yes, but I don't think it's much more dangerous than driving a car.
Sandra: Accidents happen everywhere. I get your point, I was thinking about it as well.
Olivia: And? Aren't you afraid?
Sandra: A bit, yes, but I always wanted to learn horse riding, so I thought that as soon as it isn't anything that requires me to, I don't know, go abroad or a lot of money, I may at least give it a try.
Olivia: Makes sense. I'm just worried ;)
Sandra: I know <3 Pity though as I wanted you to join me :>...
Olivia: Me?!

#Person1#: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?
#Person2#: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr. Gruby being left-handed himself, thought of the idea to try to promote a few products for left-handers.
#Person1#: And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?
#Person2#: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market which were very few. And then contacted the manufactures with the idea of having products produced for him, mainly in the scissors range to start with.
#Person1#: Right. So you do commission some part of your stock.
#Person2#: Yes, very much so. About 75 percent of our stock is specially made for us.
#Person1#: And the rest of it?
#Person2#: Hmm, the rest of it now, some 25, 30 years after Mr. Gruby's initial efforts, there are more left-handed product actually on the market. Manufactures are now beginning to see that there is a market for left-handed products.
#Person1#: And what's the range of your stock?
#Person2#: The range consists of a variety of scissors from children scissors to scissors for tailors, hairdressers etc. We also have a large range of kitchen ware.
#Person1#: What's the competition like? Do you have quite a lot of competition?
#Person2#: There are other people in the business now in specialists, but only as mail-order outlets. But we have a shop here in central London plus a mail-order outlet. And we are without any doubt the largest supplier of the left-handed items. | #Person2# tells #Person1# how their business for the left-handed began and developed. Then #Person2# tells #Person1# about the commission and the range of their stock and explains the competition on the market. |
animal: That was precisely my idea! Steal the pitchfork and he'll have to leave me alone. Fire from a torch cannot hurt me or my bridge.
horse: Tell me, do you charge a toll to cross your bridge?
animal: You speak of trolls in storybooks I've heard mothers reading to their children by my bridge. No...I just keep watch for creatures that may want to pass to another realm and make sure not just anyone can move through.
horse: Ah, I thought I might secure free passage for my friends the goats..... Another realm you say!?
animal: Kind animals are always my friends so I would be happy to guide them over the bridge to keep them safe. There can be bigger beasts out there that might hurt them so I can let you know what time of day they would be safe.

User Interface: We maybe you can have a speech recognition interface You just tell the television I want which channel Or or you can say for example I want to list all the programme tonight Y you know instead of remote control it is doing the some searching for you so you do not have to look for the channel you want Just say maybe I just want to press I want to have a button for all the movies tonight Or a button for all the magazines all the information documentary tonight And then you list a few and I will choose from the list So instead of pressing the channel number I am choosing the programmes directly that is one way of making it useful
Project Manager: I I think if we include a lot of technology on the remote control it will be very costly
User Interface: it is not very a lot Th this information exists For example you can get
Project Manager: Like s you you you say we can use speech
User Interface: You can use well for example anything The the idea of using speech to reduce the button but and it is more natural
Industrial Designer: I I think if you want t to choose from a list of programme or or something like that you you may have to to use w I do not know
Marketing: I mean the main function of remote control is to have something in the hand and we should be very careful about the size of the remote control If we are going to add a speech interface I am not sure with trendy slim size of the remote control it would be able to put a speech recog if you want to put a speech recognition system f interface for that I think the TV itself could have it And I could talk to the TV television itself
Project Manager: Except if if you are far from the TV
Marketing: I need not have an I mean we have some or something different technology but
User Interface: But th the main idea I wanted to s I wanted to say is that there should be a function instead of choosing the ch TV channel there is a option you can choose either TV channels or or pr or the or the contain or the contents of the programme
Industrial Designer: it is it is a good idea it is a good idea
User Interface: So it is more powerful
Industrial Designer: but I I think that technically it would be a little bit more tricky to to achieve this than just to
User Interface: No No because you see now all the TV programmes are available on the webs They they are they are they are available in XML format or whatever the format We do not care We just say that this are some content We just want to retrieve the content and then classi sort them by the types of programmes Some of the websites they already provide this service so we can just use the service available Download it to the to this remote control | User Interface thought there should be a function, instead of choosing the TV channel, users could choose TV channels or the contents of the programme.

Lynne Neagle AM: thank you very much We are going to go on now to some questions about mental health from Siân Gwenllian Siân
Sian Gwenllian AM: It is a because of great concern to us all of course in terms of the impact of this crisis on mental health and wellbeing among our children and young people So what assessment has the Government undertaken of the impact on these aspects in young people and what work is being done to understand the impact of the pandemic ? What longer term measures will be put in place and what support services will be put in place ?
Vaughan Gething AM: Again I think it is helpful that you have already heard from the education Minister last week because I think the first of her key principles for returning to school is the impact on the emotional health and wellbeing of children So childrens mental health was a central concern and remains so for both myself and the education Minister Part of the honest challenge again is that we do not fully understand the impact on the mental health and wellbeing of children but we do expect there will have been an impact So we are working together with both health boards and our own knowledge and analytical services across the Government to both try to further understand what that is and the difference Until we have more contact with families we may not fully understand that and that is a real point of concern for me In all of the unknowns within this the impact on mental health and wellbeing is absolutely one of them because we are looking at how we then develop not just a recovery plan for the economy but a recovery plan around mental health how we support people and that will have to be informed by the understanding of what is happening when we get more engagement with families about the level of need and then how we need to think about that Obviously it is a key factor for their return to school but actually for the life children and young people lead outside the school environment and that will be difficult because we are going to phase out of lockdown—it is not going to be a onehit measure That absolutely is not going to happen We are going to be looking at at each point what difference has been made what more we can do And again there are the efforts we are making to make sure that our online support services and our telephone support services—that we keep on reminding people that they are there and are available and we want people to make use of them because I know as this committee said we would much rather be able to support people and intervene earlier rather than wait until there is a much bigger problem in a period of months in the future
Sian Gwenllian AM: So in reality there is been no assessment undertaken because it is difficult to do that So the full picture in terms of the outcomes of the crisis—you do not know what they are at the moment as things stand
Vaughan Gething AM: We can not know because we do not have that level of contact There is a development— I would not say that no works being done but I could not tell you honestly that that work is finalised and we have a definitive understanding of the picture If I tried to say that then I am sure you would ask me How on earth can you say that ? If you are not having regular contact with people you can not possibly understand the picture And it is much better to say We do not understand the full picture We know there will have been an impact We are working alongside health boards and others but we will know more as we carry on having more contact with families I will look at a variety of different areas again both to reform the recovery plan but also then to understand what we need to do at various points in the future and the picture that we are seeing is not straightforward and we need to make sure that we do not try to pretend to ourselves or to the public that there is a oneoff measure that will allow us to be successful in all the areas that we would want to be
Sian Gwenllian AM: But can you give the committee an assurance today that this area of mental health and wellbeing is going to be a priority for you as health Minister ?
Vaughan Gething AM: Of course Not just on the work we have done in the past not just because it is one of the key principles for the education Minister about the reopening of schools but it is a real worry list for me about how we understand the impact on the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people and to move forwards that we do not end up with an entire generation of children and young people who grow up with a range of damage because we have not thought about what that will look like So the mental health recovery plan will of course be of very real importance to me In amongst all the other priorities I have I am certainly not going to allow the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people to be forgotten
Sian Gwenllian AM: And how does the current capacity in terms of child and adolescent mental health services compare to service capacity prior to the coronavirus outbreak in Wales ? Have you had to shift some resources over from CAMHS for example in order to deal with more general aspects of coronavirus ?
Vaughan Gething AM: No we have actually got— Maybe perhaps it might be helpful Chair if Tracey Breheny could say something about the way that we are monitoring the impact we have in terms of we have got a reporting tool but also weekly contact with leads in CAMHS services | When it comes to continuing mental health service during the lockdown, Vaughan Gething insisted that it was of great necessity to carry out a mental health recovery plan that with such a system, government can ensure the children could enjoy a healthy mental state during the school lockdown. However, at present they had not yet finished a detailed research in this job for that they were still under the cooperation with health boards to get a whole perspective of the situation. |
