User Groups - When developing a product that is to be aimed at a large and diverse market it is important to investigate and empathise with the end users.

Scenario building - A useful design technique is to act out different user scenarios to find problems and discover possibilities.

Technical Development - A significant portion of the project was spent investigating and developing a system to simulate the feel of striking good and bad tennis shots. To do this a racquet was instrumented to find the vibration profile of different shots.

System Simulation - The product is a complex electro-mechanical device with a combination of inputs, outputs and processes. To develop a coherent system these where developed by hand and modeled in Matlab Simulink.
