HL DT Unit 1 Project – Remote Control 

In this unit, our class learned about anthropometrics and how to prevent users from experiencing fatigue by using intuitive designs. A good design allows users to understand the product and use it efficiently and comfortably. We focused on designing a remote control as it is a commonly used item. Most people started off with sketching down ideas, but I instead went for a model first. I wanted to see what the most natural grip of the human hand is like first, then I can make other models according to it. After that, I made a few models and then combined them into a final idea. This project provided a small rewind on sanding skills back from IGCSE DT course and was overall quite interesting as we now began to work with designs related to the human body.
