  1. Waterproof Cellular Phone Design Berhane Azage Jin Yoon Trey Whiteman Joshua Salazar Sarah Ohr

  2. Introduction Background on Cell Phones Market Assessment Why Waterproofing? The gist of the problem definition: Design a competitive waterproofed cell phone that is cost effective.

  3. Objective Tree

  4. Analysis of the Problem Existing productsCasio G'zOne TYPE-R, Can U 5025 Main Features water-proof, shock resistant, a 1.3MP digital camera, and electronic compass Strengths High Water-Proof Capability, High Durability Weaknesses Its “chunky” appearance, cost

  5. Challenges and Design Constraints • waterproof each component • ensure high durability and waterproof capability. • Cost-effective • Aesthetics: compact and stylish

  6. Morph Chart

  7. Product Differentiation Waterproofing Individual Components vs. The Outer Casing • Competition • Defining our Market

  8. Battery Removable Non-removable Speaker Polypropylene Mylar PlastiDip Microphone PlastiDip Parylene Main Board Parylene Epoxy Touch Screen Screen Epoxy Parylene Antenna Internal External Waterproofing Techniques

  9. Metrics • Cost • Temperature Tolerance • Call quality / sound quality • Aesthetics • Moisture Transmission • Pressure • Depth • Pressure Differences

  10. Design DescriptionI

  11. Motherboard

  12. Battery Case & Connector

  13. Speaker & Microphone

  14. Network Technology • CMDA vs. GSM • CMDA: Do not need to worry about sim card

  15. Design Description II • Screen • Antenna • Encasing/Cell Phone Body

  16. Approximate Cost of Design *this is an overestimate of the cost; waterproofing components such as the microphone and speaker may cost a little less
