Working bench top prototypes allowed the integrated team to deconstruct functionality and determine a hierarchy of requirements to optimize the electrical, software and mechanical interactions and the physical volume.

Focusing on ‘functional elegance’ while  maximizing usability and durability was a primary goal for PDT...
