1. What is the purpose or primary function of the object?To read a game and project the visual and sound on the screen.
2. Make an educated guess as to how this product operates. Use simple machines’ terminology to explain the object’s sequential operation.
there is a light bulb to produce the visual, a speaker to produce the sound and a small computer chip to read the information on the games.
3. Identify the system inputs, intended product function, and outputs. Use power point to create a "black box" graphic like the toothbrush example discussed in class. Save the slide as a .jpg image and post it to answer this question.

4. What mechanical components are visible?
the only visible part is the screen where the light is being produced.
5. What is it about this device’s function that you cannot identify, because the mechanical components are hidden from plain view?
I can not identify how it makes a vibration because it is covered by the plastic shell.
Great catch regarding heat as an output. It's not much but it is a byproduct of the functionality of the product. The inputs are probably a little less than what you have there. Games, batteries and button pushing come to mind. The other things you list are probably part of the product (micro chip for instance). Or maybe you meant an SD card? It's been a while since I've looked at a Gameboy so I'm not sure!
ReplyDeleteDo you have your Reverse Engineering Visual Analysis post? Taking a 0 on that will hammer your grade. You've done well on the rest of your Term 5 work and I'd like to see you earn a great grade.
