1. UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGE
Finding the balance between functionality, aesthetics and cost of the end product.
Our goal is functionality and manufacturability, and the clients will want the design aesthetic to be a certain way within a set budget.

2. design challenges
Close proximity screens – legibility and visibility
High temperature environments and all-weather durability
Internal condensation
Sleek enclosure design with effective cooling agents

Temperature resistant memory chips
Glass reflection
TV resolution – screen colour and contrast
Risk of vandalism
3. potential environments



4. DESIGN PROCESSING
ENCLOSURE
The environment of the end product will influence and impact the design, materials and style of unit.
