If a longer power outage strikes, everyday
life is put on hold. Basic needs such as water, food
and heat suddenly become the highest priority
and new habits need to be established.
We should all be prepared for this type of event. Among
other things, it can be to have a radio, to be
able to receive news during a power outage.
This work shows that there are a number of
products on the market that offer the opportunity
to listen to radio, despite power outages, through
manual operation.
However, several of these
products have poor ergonomics.
The project summarizes a number of
requirements for a product with better
ergonomics and makes through concept
development, evaluations, refinement and design
a proposal for a product that would address the
need for energy supply in the event of a longer
power outage, to be able to use radios, flashlights
and other smaller devices.
