Consumer electronic products are more complex than ever, integrated circuits have allowed the size and speed of electronics to be reduced. The increase in this technology has also increased the inaccessibility of the technology for the layman. Once a mobile phone or mp3 player is broken, its normally replaced with a whole new unit... only by taking care of our electronic devices can we prolong there life.
The FFD (finite functionality Device) is an electronics kit designed as an educational tool for electronics classes in schools....
the device is assembled by the pupils to enable them to learn about electronics. Once assembled the youngsters have to look after there device... only by nurturing there FFD will they prolong its life. The FFD is sensitive to everything a normal electronic device hates, the users have a number of chances to take care of there device, but eventually the FFD will destroy itself if treated roughly and the pupil will fail the class.
