Off-Topic / Need some help with 3rd year university project.
« on: 22-11-2009, 13:11:50 »
Hello folks.
As part of my 3rd year product design university course, I'm looking into the issues surrounding physical gaming.
To put it simple, I'm investigating the interaction between the user and the console controller, specifically looking at RSI and other conditions brought on by overuse or general discomfort that may be due to the design and ergonomics of today's modern video games console controllers.
Now, I'm sure most of you are predominantly PC gamers, but I'm sure some of you spend some time on a console or even use a console controller (such as the 360 wired controller) for certain games on the PC.
As part of my primary research and development, I've decided to conduct a survey - seven simple yes or no questions. It doesn't require a login, email or anything like that. Should take 20 seconds tops, but it'll go a long way to helping me develop my research into a design concept or design proposal. All results will remain anonymous and no personal information is collected.
I may be redesigning the console controller, I may be doing something completely different to tackle the problem, but it is primarily this research that will determine my next logical step concerning the issue.
So folks. I'll leave it to you. I do really need as many replies as possible, but every single one counts.
Thanks in advance, I'm really appreciative of your time.
