3. In one sentence, what is a Focus Group? 1 mark
COLLABORATION - 1
A DESIGN TEAM - sometimes a team of people will work on the design and
development of a product. A design team working on a design
problem, are more likely to develop a solution, in a shorter time, than an
individual.
COLLABORATION - 2
USER CENTRED DESIGN - E.G. A focus group, is a small group of people,
who are asked a series of questions about a product or service. The group
may consist of a cross section of people from society or be made up specifically
of potential customers OR clients.
They provide feedback on designs, ideas, design concepts etc......
Suggest changes to a design or product, the way it looks, the materials
it is manufactured from, the colour scheme etc.....
Express their likes and dislikes regarding the product or aspects.
Suggest methods of advertising the product and which types of advertising
are likely to be the most successful.
ITERATIVE DESIGN STRATEGYIt is a cyclic approach to the
development of a product, whereby a design is improved by frequent testing, client feedback, focus groups, materials
testing, prototype testing, design development and evaluation, until a final refined / developed design is
reached.

LONE INNOVATOR / INVENTOR
Sometimes an individual will work by himself / herself, on the design of a product. EXAMPLE: Trevor Baylis
(1937-2018) invented a prototype for a wind-up radio. In the late 1980s, he realised that people in Third World
Countries, could not afford or did not have access to replacement batteries. He developed the worlds first wind-up radio - could be used in remote areas,
and wound-up when required. An investor, made it possible to develop the
radio and to enable production.
THE SYSTEMS APPROACH
This is a LINEAR approach to design. One stage follows another, As outlined below. The opposite to iterative design.
1. DESIGN PROBLEM2. DESIGN BRIEF
3. IDEAS4. DEVELOPMENT
5. WORKING DRAWING6. MANUFACTURE
7. EVALUATE
INPUT PROCESS OUTPUT
The systems approach is often applied to the design of electronic and
programmable circuits.
sensors / switches
circuit layout / design
desired outcome
REVERSE ENGINEERING - THEFT?
Some companies operate illegally, taking the work of others and copying
their ideas, breaching copyright / patent laws. This is illegal, but it still happens.
EXAMPLE: A company develops an innovative electronic device, that is a
commercial success. A competitor company, dismantles the device and
learns its secrets (reverse engineering), avoiding years of development costs. They manufacture their version of the
device, selling it at a lower cost.Please note - The USA has complained
repeatedly, that some Chinese companies have copied and marketed products, developed by companies in
the USA. Foreign companies have little chance of winning lawsuits in China.F
