ECE 477 Group 13Beethoven’s EarPackaging Considerations David Duemler Martin Pendergast Nick Kwolek Stephen Edwards
Overview • Updated Block Diagram • Packaging Design Considerations • Analyzed Products
Design Considerations • Device will be small and relatively portable but powered directly. • Box style shape for use on a flat surface. • Connections on the rear face, interface and controls on the top face. • Most of the internal space is taken by the PCB and arrangement of external connections. • External space mainly used by an LCD with some controls.
Analyzed Product: Roland WAV/MP3 Recorder • Simple Portable WAV/MP3 Recorder • Symmetric controls on the top face with menu navigations centered • Connections on back face (SD Card layered to save width) • Some connections (Power/USB) on the side • Maximizes usability by providing useful physical controls to reduce GUI navigation and complexity.
Analyzed Product: JL Cooper ES-450-JE • Audio/Video Editing tool via Ethernet connection • Symmetric controls centered on the top face. • Minimal to No GUI, almost all controls exist physically • Each control is designed to work as intuitively as possible w/o a true GUI. • Box style packaging with an angled top face for easier use on a flat surface. • Connections (Power/Ethernet) on the back face.
