Considerable research and development went into creating this controller for a new RC vehicle. I had to call upon much of my experience designing handheld games and electronics. As a starting point, I referenced Henry Dreyfuss’ human factors charts considering adult and children-sized hands. From there, I created multiple clay models that could be evaluated, observed, and iterated. Once I arrived at a comfortable feel and versatile size, I worked with engineering to create production-level CAD and explored and added automotive-inspired design details.
