 * Product**: **Button**
 * Function**: **Traindoor opening**

- User pushing plastic button. The button, about 3cm in diameter is pushed about 5 mm into a metal housing. - It's a short push with one finger and a fast release. This small action initiates the moving of a heavy door. - Only one finger is needed to move a large thing - the resistance while pushing is bigger then expected for such a "small" button (fits with the weight of the door that will be opened with) - the surface is glossy
 * Main Interaction**: **Pushing**

- it's a dry, technical sound - a spring inside causes a double click (press and release), and a short echo - sound seams to be longer than interaction - the surface can't be heard - the button is "isolated"; the material where it's mounted doesn't act as a resonance body
 * Main Sound**: click

The train was waiting at the Main Station in Zürich at track 18, which is at the border of the Train Station, therefore it was not too load, but still noisy. We heard cars, people talking, announcements from loadspeakers and the sound of other trains departing or arriving. The button is used by everyone who wants to enter the train, every age, commuter as well as tourists.
 * Context**: Button to open the train door. I'ts placed beside the door.

__Product description__**

Product: bike lock Function: lock the bike (the unlocking process is not described)

Process: Pluging (main interaction), wind around, stretch, press, push Force: human -> fast and short, mechanical -> a feather is pressed back and released after plugged in (the bike is locked) Human manipulation: holding the object with two hands Configuration: flexible body to wind around the bike, a piece of metall on each end to plug together
 * Interaction

Sound short and loud Aspects of space: almost no declay, no reverb, very small resonance body Material: metall to metall, strong - not flexible**

Product: Handbrake Function: Slowing down and parking a car

- Grab the handle with the right hand (in left-traffic countries!) - Pulling a handle upwards to "activate", to release the button must be holded while releasing the brake handle - in older cars it's more heavier to lift the brake, some peole do it fast others like the function of the toothed wheel and do it slower, to hear the steps - shape is ergonomic and slip proof, in the VW golf 2 its a structurized, leatherlike, plastic
 * Interaction

Sound - middle loud, middle bright, a repeating "clack" --> "rätsch" - source is mechanic (toothed wheel that snaps) - hard material, metallic**
