This thesis evaluates the controller for areas of improvement and innovation. The research findings show that the current solution was lacking some of the market leaders’ standard features, for instance; a display, floatability, and suitable ergonomics.
The proposed solution floats, has improved ergonomics, lets the user choose between speed modes, and shows both the controller and boards battery level. So that the experience of the ride and controller mutually improves.
This comparative study highlights the key design elements that need to be taken into consideration when developing a new jetboard controller.
