Project Requirements Brainstorming

Great, we’ll do this as a 5-question structured brainstorming flow, one question at a time, and I’ll turn your answers into:
  • a system block diagram
  • a full component list covering both active and passive parts
  • a clear set of requirements and trade-offs
Question 1 of 5: What is the core job of the system?
Pick the option that best matches what you want to build, or combine them:

Table


OptionSystem TypeProsCons
ASense / measure somethingUsually lower power, simpler architecture, easier validationMay need careful analog design and calibration
BControl / actuate somethingClear practical value, strong real-world utilityOften needs higher power stages and protection circuitry
CCommunicate / gateway dataGood for connected products and loggingAdds protocol, firmware, and power complexity
DPortable deviceBattery-powered, compact, flexible use casesPower budget and charging architecture become critical
EFixed installed deviceEasier power design, fewer battery constraintsLess portable, installation may add connector/mechanical constraints
FMixed-function systemMost capable, can combine sensing + control + communicationsHighest design complexity and more trade-offs
To answer, tell me:
  1. What the product does in one sentence
  2. Who uses it / where it is used
  3. Whether it is mainly:
    • measurement
    • control
    • communications
    • portable
    • fixed
    • or a combination
