Product Design and Analysis mind maps

Product design and analysis mind maps

These user-made maps connect design questions to products and processes. Sustainable Desk Lamps brings together materials, safety, manufacturing and user requirements. Product Design introduces computer-aided design and manufacture, while Product design looks at computer numerical control.

For a practical starting point, try Task analysis of fast food packaging (pizza box). Its branches connect the packaging material with warmth, grease and environmental impact, giving you a way to follow several design considerations at once.

Study with the maps

Read the central topic and follow each branch, noting how the ideas relate to the product. Then compare it with a map on another product, such as Golf Buggy, and look for different requirements. When you want to check terms or test your understanding, switch to flashcards or a quiz on the unit page. Choose a map and follow its branches at your own pace.
