false | Uh - huh. | QMSum_45 |
false | but , uh , you know , a again , if if you if you | QMSum_45 |
false | Oh. | QMSum_45 |
false | um , and this was this was literacy , which actually is somewhat different problem. | QMSum_45 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_45 |
false | Maybe easier. I don't know. So this is reading , rather than teaching Another project we started on , and and didn't get funded for was , uh , to try to build an automatic tutoring program , for kids whose first language wasn't English. Which is like half the school population in California. Something like that , | QMSum_45 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_45 |
false | isn't it ? Yeah. So , enormous problem in California , and the idea was if we 're so smart about language understanding and speech understanding , couldn't we build uh , programs that would be tutors for the kids. We think we could. Anyway. So so But this is a slightly different problem , | QMSum_45 |
false | Mm - hmm. | QMSum_45 |
false | and um , I know none of us have the spare time to look at it right now , but it i it 's it 's interesting and I may um , talk to him some more about is em somebody already doing this , and stuff like that. So anyway , that was that was today 's little story. | QMSum_45 |
false | Hmm. | QMSum_45 |
false | OK. So I I did manage to get pull my head out of the sling by sidetracking into CITRIS , | QMSum_45 |
false | No , no. | QMSum_45 |
false | but uh or a temporarily putting it out of the sling | QMSum_45 |
false | Right. | QMSum_45 |
false | but , I I 'll volunteer to put it right back in by stating that I am n uh among some other things in the process of writing up stuff that we have been discussing at our daily meetings , | QMSum_45 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_45 |
false | and also revising , thanks for all the comments , the c the original construal proposal. And , if I put one and one together , I may end up with a number that 's greater than one and that I I can potentially present once you get back. | QMSum_45 |
false | Greater than two ? | QMSum_45 |
false | You 're good. | QMSum_45 |
false | Nnn. s sometimes , you know the sum is not uh less than the | QMSum_45 |
false | Uh , right , right. | QMSum_45 |
false | Right. Right. Anyway. Yeah , so OK , so that 'd be great , but I 'd I think it 's it 's time again , right ? | QMSum_45 |
false | Absolutely. Yeah. | QMSum_45 |
false | Yeah. OK. | QMSum_45 |
false | But um , and hopefully all sidetracking um , other things will have disappeared , soon. | QMSum_45 |
false | Good. Yep. Done ? | QMSum_45 |
false | Is everyone ready to start ? | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yes. | QMSum_79 |
false | Okay. Great. Well , welcome to the third meeting of conceptual design. I'll just get the PowerPoint presentation up and running. Okay. Um , on the agenda for this , um , for this particular meeting , we'll have your three presentations on what you've done since our last meeting , after we came up with um some general ideas of our design. And , um , then we have to make some key decisions on , on our remote control concept , and how we're gonna make it , what uh materials we're gonna use , and that sort of thing. | QMSum_79 |
false | The meeting will be forty minutes long. | QMSum_79 |
false | Okay. | QMSum_79 |
false | And um we will once again have Poppy as our first presenter. | QMSum_79 |
false | Okay. | QMSum_79 |
false | Alright , and I will switch up PowerPoint. | QMSum_79 |
false | Thank you. | QMSum_79 |
false | Okay. | QMSum_79 |
false | Should be just loading. Okay. Oh , although I can't see it on my screen. That says go here. Okay. I've been doing some research into the different components that we could use , um what's available to us f to actually make the remote control. Um , first of all we have to look at how the remote control is actually made , and what is it happens inside the casing , which is more your field. Um , thes main internal feature is a circuit board , which contains all the elec electronics and also the contacts with the power source. | QMSum_79 |
false | Which is not necessarily a battery , as we're about to see. Um , there are several components of , um , the circuit board that we need to consider , where we'll be getting them from , what they'll be made of. Um , including the integrated circuit , which is also known as the chip. Which is where all the main information is uh contained. Um , diodes , transistors , resonators , resistors , and capacit capacitors all need to be considered as well. Um , and all their positioning in the circuit. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um Are they all included , like mandatorily , or r are these different options ? | QMSum_79 |
false | Uh , these , they're all different options , they're all separate , apart from the chip , which we will probable decide whether we buy a simple , a regular , advanced. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | We can go into that later. Um , all the other things are individual components that we'd have to get in separately , and work out the most , like , effective um circuit , including all the wires and everything like that. And the L_E_D_ of course , that's a light emitting diode. So , we could , so we've got flex flexibility with colours and things , with that as well. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm. | QMSum_79 |
false | Okay , there are lots of different possibilities for the energy source. We could use a basic battery , but that brings with it , like they need to be recharged and the bulk , the size of it as well. And they're not so great to dispose of , environmentally. There's a hand-powered dynamo which is a sort of thing that was used for torches fifty years ago. A bit out of date. Kinetic energy is something that's been recently developed. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um What is a hand-powered dynamo ? | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , where you manually charge up the power. | QMSum_79 |
false | Just every , every once in a while ? | QMSum_79 |
false | Like you wind up something. | QMSum_79 |
false | Just every once in a while or constantly ? | QMSum_79 |
false | Sorry ? Yeah. Every once in a while I think | QMSum_79 |
false | Alright. It'd be kind of strange to always be cranking it I think. | QMSum_79 |
false | . But it's Yeah. It would be like going a step back in time. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | I don't think it would really be with kind of cutting edge technology. | QMSum_79 |
false | No. | QMSum_79 |
false | Whereas kinetic energy is a new idea that's being used by some watches and other devices , where you just shake the device and it gives it power. I mean , the kinetic energy is transformed into power to make the circuit work. Um , or there's solar power , which we've been considering inside a building , which is where it's gonna be used , might not be quite so useful. | QMSum_79 |
false | Right. | QMSum_79 |
false | But , good to look into , renewable energy , always the way. Um , lots of considerations for the case , like what sort of shape it would be , curved or flat. That's got a lot to do with the ergonomics. Like how it's comfortable and s sits in the hand. We don't want something that's huge and you can't pick up. Or too small. Or too slidy. I know I've had a remote control before which you couldn't tell which was the front and the back , | QMSum_79 |
false | 'cause it had so many buttons on , and the shape was so symmetrical that I'd be pressing like a volume button instead of the on button. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm. | QMSum_79 |
false | Because you can't really see which way round it is. | QMSum_79 |
false | Right. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , we also can choose what materials um , the we could use metal , we could use rubber which might be more um ideal for the anti-R_S_I_. It's like the same sort of rubber that's used in stress balls and things like that , so it's very like soft , not so stressful on your hands. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm-hmm. | QMSum_79 |
false | Wood. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , again , stepping back in time again there. | QMSum_79 |
false | I don't think that's quite up to date with what we're looking for here. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , titanium is not gonna be possible , even though it just it beyond our budget really. But , would've been maybe for future projects. Um right our choice for buttons as well. We've developed some we've got some good advances in technology , with our research team have found some uh new multiple um option scroll buttons. I think that was brought up for , um , they're basically quite a flexible design , modern , you don't have to use individual buttons. You can just slide up and down. I'm sure we're all quite familiar with those on mobiles or computer laptop pads. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm-hmm. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um one thing with the scroll buttons though. It , it | QMSum_79 |
false | we would have to have an L_C_D_ um | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. That's true. | QMSum_79 |
false | display , and the glow in the dark thing might be difficult. | QMSum_79 |
false | And that would lead to an advanced yeah. If we have yeah. We're going on to that later with the advanc with the L_C_D_ that means we'd need a really advanced chip. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | And it's unlikely that that's gonna be in our budget. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm-hmm. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , also we've got the integrated pushbutton , which is what we're most familiar with. It's the most straightforward. But you can in like incorporate that with a scroll button as well. . Got decisions to make there. And this is what I was just saying before. Linked in the different depends on what type of buttons we have and the inputs. Um simple would go with the pushbutton. Um , regular you could link with the scroll button. And the advanced we'd have to go with a L_C_D_ s display. | QMSum_79 |
false | Right. | QMSum_79 |
false | My personal preferences ? I think we could go for the kinetic energy source. I don't , I think that's quite um an advanced kind of technology. It's not been seen before , so it could be quite a , a novelty factor , attractive as well. And also energy saving 'cause you're producing the energy , you don't need an external sort of battery supply or solar panels. You just give it a shake. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Sounds brilliant to me. | QMSum_79 |
false | Uh. | QMSum_79 |
false | Rubber casing I thing would probably the best , if we're going for the anti-R_S_I_ and like more choice with um aesthetics. Like it could be pretty much any colour we want. Um , and gives you , yeah , more flexibility there. And probably the regular chip as opposed to the simple , | QMSum_79 |
false | then we could possibly have the scroll and the push , but no L_C_D_ , 'cause we probably can't afford that one. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. Um , one concern with the rubber casing is that it would be rubber encapsulating all of these chips and diodes and delicate technology as | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm-hmm. | QMSum_79 |
false | like as the exterior. This is the one thing that's protecting its innards. | QMSum_79 |
false | I think that would , uh there would be an in sort of more internal casing. And the rubber would just be the , what's in contact with the human. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. Another thing is it might be more difficult if it's a rubber exterior talking about putting on interchangeable plates. | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Um , is it | QMSum_79 |
false | Yeah. | QMSum_79 |
false | Mm-hmm. | QMSum_79 |
false | I don't see how a like a rubber plate going on top it would stay there. Like if it was sort of like a clip-on plastic plate. It would work that way. | QMSum_79 |
