Enabling SME with design
A MSME company with a well performing product approached us for a new design of a water meter. Four different variants of the product were being sold in the market. The current design had great potential for improvement and transformation.
Our focus areas for design improvement were weather protection, better integration in the product environment system and lastly simple clean product to prevent dirt and water accumulation during usage.
Can the product be mounted on the panel as well?
How do we better integrate the product to make it less obtrusive?
Can we give consumers more flexibility in their application orientation and use?
Should the product look like an industrial product or a new age contemporary electronic device?
Users are lazy, they try to read the digits from a distance to avoid walking up to the product on a shop-floor. What size of digits would be better visible from a distance?
Can we engage the user in a new way?
How do we seal the connectors yet allow access?
