The document summarizes the design process of a medical laser device. Key points include: - Usability research identified issues with existing devices not meeting user needs. Design assumptions were formulated to organize workspace, enable easy electronics development, minimize tangled wires, and emphasize ergonomics, cleanability, and modern aesthetics. - Probe designs were tested for ergonomics, leading to a circular cross-section found most comfortable. The probe design alluded to other project elements. - The final device consists of a housing for the main unit and three probes. A two-piece construction allows for easy assembly and expansion. The design emphasizes modern, technical appearance to provide an alternative to existing options.

2. 1 defining usability problems
Medical laser design is a result of extensive
research including exploratory interviews,
participant observations and interviews with
representatives of the medical, users and
producers of medical equipment. The aim of this
research was to verify whether the existing
solutions meet the needs of users and create
problems to be solved. The conclusion was that
devices available on the market do not meet the
design assumptions
Analysis of collected data allowed to
formulate design assumptions:
- organizing the work space;
- housing enabling easy development of
electronics in order to increase the
usability of device (modularity);
- minimizing tangled wires;
- versatility and ease of use;
- ergonomic probes;
real users needs and in many cases are not - easy to clean;
suitable for medical centres. - modern aesthetics emphasizing the
Observed usability issues mainly concerned: technical advancement of the device.
- poor use of work space (lack of space for
accessories, docks for probes);
- safety requirements (lack of space for safety
glasses, wrong labeling);
- tangled wires.

3. diploma 2012 ergonomy and sketches of probes
Each concept of probes was tested on a
group of users in terms of ergonomy and
functionality. First concepts shown did not
meet the assumptions of ergonomics and
required changes. Evolution of form of
probles led to the concept of probe with
circular cross section, since this one was
the most comfortable one. The design of
the probe alluded to other elements of the
project. The probes have been designed
for right and left-handed users.
