  1. Product Archeology II: Camera Dissections Dr. Chris Williams Mechanical Engineering Engineering Education Dr. Matt Wisnioski Science and Technology in Society

  2. why are we here, again? Outcome H: Graduates must have the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.

  3. product archeology Reconstructing the lifecycle of a product – the customer requirements, design specifications, and manufacturing processes used to produce it – to understand the decisions that led to its development. www.productarcheology.org

  4. engineering is more than product functionalitydesign choices have global, economic, environmental and societal dimensions and consequences we can ‘read’ these in products themselves companies consider them in the design process!

  5. last month April 12 today

  6. Outline • Dissection and Function Analysis • Reconstructing Economic Design Choices • Reconstructing Environmental Design Choices • Is the Single Use a Relic?

  7. 1. Dissection and Function Analysis

  8. 2. Reconstructing Economic Design Choices

  9. Which components of the different cameras are identical? • Use an “X” to mark common parts between different products. X X? X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X

  10. How is variety offered in this product family? • Identify the “chunks” that make up the camera architecture

  11. 3. Reconstructing Environmental Design Choices Step 1 Step 2 Step 5 Step 4 Step 3

  12. Identify two Principles of Green Engineering the camera satisfies. • Describe how the camera design satisfies those principles.

  13. Describe why Kodak might have wanted the camera design to satisfy the principles you identified.

  14. 4. Is the Single Use a Relic?

  15. what needs/wants made single use cameras so popular? • how much of a market for these products still exists? • what do you think the future holds for single use cameras?
