Final Model Making

After speaking with my target market and gaining feedback on how my model could be improved both ergonomically and aesthetically I went about making a new model. I kept the smooth curve on the underside as it allowed the device to fit comfortably into the user’s hands. This would also be a key selling point for my device. I also changed the direction of the screens curve, so that it now curved downward instead of upwards, whist keeping the devices overall downwards curve. When making this model, I made sure to cut far outside of the lines on my when using the hot wire cutter to ensure that I did not damage the form of the gaming device. After cutting out the basic shape I then sanded down it down to the actual lines, which allowed me to gain a smooth finish. I also moved the position of the back buttons form the end of the device to the sides as this was a place where the user could reach them easily, which I found out when testing my previous models. Moving the buttons here meant that I didn’t have to make the screen smaller in order to incorporate them.
