Pump up the Volume
'MP3 playesr are very popular and are ideally suited for indivdual listening. Sometimes however it is useful to amplify sound so that the device can be listened to without the restriction of headphones, or a small group of people can listen to it together.'
The above is a typical context taken from a GCSE short course specification.
Your task is to design and manufacture a prototype product in response to this context that incorporates the given amplifier circuit. CAD/CAM is to be used extensively in the development of your prototype. This will be a corporate 'freebie' used to promote the launch of one of the following new ventures:
- An energy sports drink
- A high speed commuter rail network
- The launch of the new movie Tron Legacy, - A web based information service for the 2012 olympics
which is the sequel to Tron, origanally released in 1982.
Pro engineer and Corel draw should be used to refine and develop the products shape, form and function. The prototype product should be manufactured using CAM equipment ( e.g laser cutter, Fused Deposition Modeller, CNC route, sublimation printer etc) as the principal means of production.
