Question:
I'm doing a project for my engineering design class where we must
design a
new system for raising and lowering the top to a pop-up camper and I
am
doing a survey of people who have used, or currently use a pop-up
camper
It can be any make and model, but our project is to redesign the
Coleman/Fleetwood manual-powered system in particular. If you would
be willing to answer a few questions and give your opinions I would
really appreciate it, it will be very valuable to
my project.
Here is the survey:
Make/Model of camper-
How often do you use it?
What part of the country do you usually camp in?
How does your camper "pop-up" or open?
How easy is it to operate the mechanism that opens the camper?
What, if anything, do you dislike about how the camper opens?
Do you have any suggestions or comments regarding the mechanism that
opens
the camper, or its design?
