Reverse Engineering

AnalysisCoffee MakerProduct Teardown

Assignment

Visually and functionally analyze a coffee maker.

What I learned

This project taught me how to reverse engineer an object from a functional and visual standpoint. In functional analysis, an engineer speculates what parts are involved and how they interact to create a particular function. Visual analysis deals with what the exterior of the object represents through color, texture, and shading.

Improvements & reflection

I didn't include the correct iso-view of the coffee maker — I used a top-down picture instead of a proper iso view, compromising thorough visual representation.
