TORCH DESIGN

DESIGN BRIEF

You have been approached by a torch manufacturer to design an unusual torch. Your torch is to be designed with specific people in mind.

Example One - Design a torch for an elderly person. This type of torch could have a large on/off button or switch so that it can be used easily. It could have an alarm built in to it so that if the elderly person fell over or collapsed the alarm could be triggered. This would alert neighbours so that the elderly person could be helped.
Example Two - Design a torch for a Police Officer. This type of torch could have a built in ‘stun gun’ as part of the handle. It could have a radio for communication with the Police Station.
Example Three - Design a torch for an Eskimo. The torch could have a built in heater for keeping hands and fingers warm. It could have a small compartment.
