Project 1 PROPOSAL
by Xiaofeng Huang (300263105)
Topic of
Focus
I opened the three electronic products
were a teddy bear with a cute button light, an alarm clock and a solar garden
light. Although they are simple structure electronic produces, but open them up
seems like lead me entering an unknown world. Then, I have a great idea when I
fiddle with them. But I always ignore the other ideas when I had a good one,
unless that idea fails I will never give.
In ancient China, the ancestors know the
time by the position of the sun. Today we know the time by a variety of watch
or clock. I want to design an object that can combine the timing ideas of
ancient and modern together and cause people to reflect. This could be
considered the first step after I known the critical design. I would like to
focus on the mode of interaction.
Production
Focus
I will focus on two electronic products
I already have and to make a clock can be light control. It sounds not
difficult, and the mass productions of solar alarm clock are all around the
world. But I think the product I going to design can control clock hand to move
forward or backward walking or accelerated running. Specifically, when the
light is on the clock hand clockwise walk; when light is off clock hand
counterclockwise walk. Some more detail, such as when the light clock lasted 20
seconds when the clock hand will slowly accelerate, when clock hand keep
running until one hundredth circle it will suddenly stopped, then the alarm
rang.
