We never use repeaters, they’re way to complex and old fashioned. It takes ages to assemble them which is not ideal in a fire. If they could make it easier to use then we would use them again because they are quite

Product Development
Rapid Prototype’s
Foam and Function
After sketching a wide range of shapes and designs allowed us to select shapes to take forward to 3D modelling. The models displayed a wide range of options to take forward to the final design.
Once final the shapes were selected the next stage was to test the products function. After developing a scale foam model with moving parts offered what parts needed redesigning.
Texture
Size and Shape
Once shaped and measurements had been finalized by the team the next stage was to develop a fully functional prototype for the ‘Nest’ concept and two white models for the ‘Wobble’ and ‘Collapse’ concepts.
The ‘Nest’ prototype was constructed using 3D printing and purchasing real antennas, buttons, and fabrics from local manufacturers. While both the ‘Wobble’ and ‘Collapse’ were made out of foam and white matt paint.
Collapse The Collapse concept is designed to focus on protecting both antennas while holding them at 90 degrees.
Wobble Designed to do exactly that, wobble when hit but never fall flat. This will keep the antenna at a constant 90-degree angle there by keeping the signal strong.
Nest The Concept Inspired by party cups the Nest concept is design to stack upon one another to allow the user to carry multiple devices easily. The cone shape decreases the chance of the device being knocked over and interrupting the signal.
Lighting A s well as including the six-inch antenna the ‘Nest’ also includes LEDs lights at the top end increasing visibility in dangerous situations.
Antenna The design allows the antenna to be flush with the curved structure of the device. This decreases the chance of the antenna braking off.

Game Play
After exploring a wide range of shapes and circle offered better ease of use. The next challenge and working the placement of all the electronics and how will they benefit the function.
The card prototypes offered and opportunity to test the game play and see weather or not the intended audience would enjoy playing with the product.
Assembling Parts
Adding Sounds to Electronics
Using 3D printing and vacuum foaming to construct the final model. The next challenge was to assemble all wired electronics and outer parts. Once the electronics where placed in the device the next challenge and to place the power and record button.

Lay flat Testing
After exploring the option of adding record and play capabilities to our card we wanted to seek a creative way to design the card to be unique.
Once the radio option was selected the next task was then to design it to lay flat to fit in a envelope. It would then pop up and stay up as well as record and play in the process.
User Ergonomics
Inside Parts
We tested this on a number of prototypes to see how enjoyable the experience was. This requires replacing the confetti cox and the cracker in different places for minimum effect.
After designing the shape of the wish bone we used a cracker to be attached to both sides of the product and a box of confetti to give a ‘magic effect when pulling the cracker.
Card Make it personal by recording your own sound when flat, then play your message to your loved one.
