RADIO FOR THE ELDERLY PROJECT
Project goal
Adapting product to the designated audience while
emphasizing use, and user's constraints and needs.
Research
The elderly listen to the radio a lot, often to a single
preferred station, in different rooms in the house.
Problems
Uniformity among radios, convenient use of buttons
and dials, changing stations on several radios simultaneously,
turning off of all radios in the house at same time.
Design response
Head radio positioned as transmitting station
(Bluetooth) to small speakers around the house,
adding light indicators on the audio level.
Method of Construction
laminated maple wood veneer,engraved aluminum
buttons, radio housing in vacuum forming.
