Design Brief and Action PlanWrite a simple sentence that explains what you are making, who for and why it is needed.

My action plan:

1. Need to look at trends over time of similar or existing products2. Need to analyse first hand a hand held game i.e PSP or bop it3. Need to look at how my design can be sustainable – eco considerations4. Need to ask for more information from potential clients - interview5. Need to identify suitable electronic components6. Need to put together a control system design proposal - design ideas

Client InterviewsHomeowner 1 is married and has recently had her first babyHomeowner 2 is a retired engineer

Where and when would they use my door alarm?She said that she would use it on her conservatory door if they are inside the house, it’s the most likely place of entry since intruders can climb over the door to her garden or climb over the fence and get easy access to it. He said that he would also use it on his back door because he already has one for his front door. He would use it when he is asleep so that he is woken up if anyone breaks in.

If you were to use my door alarm, would you want it to use a buzzer?She said that she wouldn’t want a buzzer at this time because it would wake up the baby and frighten him, but when he gets older she would be fine with one.He wanted it to use a very load buzzer so that he would be woken up and a robber would be deterred from staying.

What would be a better alternative method of alerting you?She wanted something that would vibrate like a phone on silent so that it doesn’t disturb the baby, but she’d still know if someone opened the door. He said that anything that made a load noise would do and that maybe a piezo transducer would be good.

What features would you want from my alarm?She said it needs to not turn off when the door closes because she might not notice if the vibration is brief, and she might think it was a phoneHe said the alarm has to stay on for a fairly long amount of time otherwise he might be woken up or he might not know what caused him to wake up
