Concurrent engineering: a prototyping case study
Janaki Akella, Allen H. Dutoit, Daniel P. Siewiorek · 2003
Vuman is a wearable portable computer used for navigation through electronic blueprints. Thirty working units of Vuman were designed and manufactured from system concept using a concurrent engineering design environment. The authors describe the steps in prototyping Vuman, using the suite of synthesis and analysis tools in the electronic and mechanical domains which comprise the concurrent engineering design environment. Some unforeseen problems and their proposed solutions are discussed.>
