However there is such a need of customization in this fast product sector. A customizable all-in-one (AIO) PC is designed to draw a route for this gap in this market. This project is part of a PHD research study in the field of industrial design. User needs research shaped the customization needs of different user groups on this product. A customizable secondary screen module is attached as a solution and a unique customizable keyboard-calculator combination is proposed for the customizing the AIO PC. Screen sharing is defined as one of the main needs of all groups. A secondary screen is designed in a modular form to create customization.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: In reflecting on the work undertaken, it was observed that mass customization brought a large amount of additional complexity into product design and development processes of electronic consumer goods. Accordingly, a new design based mass customization procedure has been developed that divides the necessary work for customization into more manageable steps. This new procedure can be used as a guide by industrial designers for mass customization projects. A comprehensive user needs research is carried out on potential user groups for defining their customized needs. Observational methods and user workshops are used. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: - TAGS: All-in-One PC, mass customization, design, user needs research RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The project has been conducted as a part of an Industrial Design PHD research. For defining user needs of different groups user needs research studies are conducted (with both observational and participative methods). After gathering the user needs information design studies are conducted collaboratively. A mass customization strategy is outlined with conducted research study and design process for customization of electronic consumer goods. CHALLENGE: Customization in the consumer electronics sector differs from other sectors on account of two critical factors: the complexity of technologies, product development and manufacturing processes the expected speed to market The consumer electronics market is highly in need of new customization strategies and tools, to challenge widespread use of the existing variety creation approach, which in itself is an expensive approach when scaled-up to many different product offerings. This product brings out a new customization strategy fulfilling different needs of four user groups. Screen sharing is one of the most important needs of all groups except home user group. For this aim a customizable secondary screen module attached to the back side of the main screen. Calculator is used very intensively together with the computer. Keyboard and calculator are combined into a customizable unit. Stationary calculator, portable calculator and media controller are custom units for this combination. Conducting user needs research studies with real users in their own use contexts was challenging.
