Battery Charger User Testing (3D prototypes)

Problem

R&D needed a new hospital battery charger enclosure that could hold multiple batteries, fit a small footprint, and give clear tactile feedback when batteries were correctly seated.

Solution

I designed 11 candidate enclosures in Rhino 3D for both countertop and wall-mount use, then had each one 3D printed, weighted, and painted to spec. Testing with battery packs revealed that users strongly preferred models with additional USB charging ports.
