Application Addition – Wrist Attachment

One point that was brought up during the feedback section of my presentation was the need for a wrist attachment.

The iPhone is designed to function in a similar way to the Nintendo Wii controller in my application , i.e. gestures are a key part of game-play. Many Wii controllers have been broken by users as a result of these gestures; the controller slipping from a users hand or smashing into a wall or other hard object when being used. Nintendo designed a wrist attachment for their consul controller to help avoid this problem.

As with the iPod, Apple designed an an arm attachment for the iPhone (shown bellow).

I have modified this arm attachment in the design of my wrist attachment:

This is to be attached to the wrist of the user, with the iPhone in his/her hand. The wrist strap can be adjusted as can the height of the iphone to suit the hand of the user.
