|
risk/uncertainty
|
how
to address
|
|
|
form
of object does not allow enough space for circuitry
|
keep
number of ic's and microcontrollers at a minimum (get help from
physical computing profs)
|
|
| sensors
are not sensitive enough to user input
|
keep
sensors at a minimum and start testing early
|
|
| device
grows hot/unsafe
|
use
heat sinks and ask about low-voltage
|
|
| not
intuitive enough to use...user grows impatient or bored
|
try
to establish a simple but interesting sequence of touches early
on and build up modules.
|
|
| serial
response too slow
|
keep
transmit/receive data low
|
|
| wireless
doesn't work
|
this
can be saved for version two.
|
|
| material
used doesn't invite touch
|
use
materials that i like, ...also metaphoric.
