受賞概要

The MW883UST projector is designed for mid-sized classrooms. A 3200 lumens light source and WXGA standard resolution project clarity even during the day. The ultra-short throw lens can project an 87-inch picture 8cm away and reduce the interference of shadows to improve teaching quality. For educational purposes, we added the Point write feature which supports simultaneous writing with four pens, allowing users to write and draw intuitively on the picture through the built-in coordinate sensors, creating fun interactive teaching while enhancing teaching experience and efficiency.

背景

Educational products should be easy to use, safe, and friendly. They have to minimize interference to avoid attracting attention or endangering safety. The view must be large and clear so students don’t suffer from burnout. Creating an active learning environment from fun interactions between students and teachers is also a main focus of educational product design.

経緯とその成果

The projection image of MW883UST projector must be big and clear and provide an interactive learning mechanism. Installation and use have to be simple and avoid impacting normal projection.

デザイナーの想い

We truly consider the age and characteristics of students and the existence of many unpredictable factors. We hope to reduce unpredictability through design and try to avoid accidental setting changes by students after the installation. We try to put ourselves in the shoes of product users and integrate thoughtful designs for them.

企画・開発の意義

MW883UST can show big and clear pictures, and with Point write, meets the convenience of interactive learning, increasing learning interest and efficiency. For children who always frolic or participate in recreational activities in the classroom, the MW883UST projector has both stability and safety features, and offers professional installers easy and clear instructions for easy installment.

創意工夫

1.The 3200 lumens light and WXGA standard resolution offer clear pictures during the day. The ultra-short throw lens can project an 87-inch picture 8cm away to reduce shadow interference for quality teaching.

2.The focus tuning lever, wireless connector terminal, and other tuning or swappable parts are hidden underneath flip covers. Since these parts aren’t used often, hiding them creates a simple and neat appearance, and students won’t accidently or intentionally bump into them either. Also, the projector’s focus and connection are more durable, reducing maintenance and re-installation hassles.

3.MW883UST’s flip covers clasp directly onto its body and stays firmly secured. This allows users to free their hands for more important tasks when making adjustments or changing out parts.

審査委員の評価

MW883USTプロジェクターは教育現場向けに設計された。光源は3200ルーメン、解像度はWXGAレベルで、白昼の使用でも極めてくっきり見ることができる。超短焦点レンズでわずか8cmの距離でも87インチの大画面に投影でき、発表者の影がプロジェクター画面をわずらわせることもない。手書きのPoint write機能を使えば、プロジェクター画面に直接、文字や図を書き込むことができる。滑らかで落ち着いたフォルムにさわやかなホワイトグレーの色合いは、教育現場のプロフェッショナルで目立たないというニーズに配慮している。
