Trimble R1
Tinka Design was contracted to design the exterior of the Trimble R1, a ruggedized hand held GNSS receiver that peered with a phone to significantly increase location services accuracy. Ergonomics were a major factor in this design process to ensure the product was comfortable to hold and the interface could be viewed from many mounting and holding positions. Foam and clay modelling were used heavily in the early stages and complimented by CAD exploration.
