| Start point -- Add reference -- Add contrast -- Adapt for ease | |
Sensitivity reduction |
No matter what the situation, sensitivity can be reduced by .... Adding a reference so ideas are tied down and not 'floating', Adding contrast so keys points are highlighted & easy to see, plus adapt for ease which could mean a closer look at the target. |
Case study: Security lights & cats |
A passing cat triggers the security lights all the time: Change the reference beam by tipping up the scanner. Adjust the contrast sensitivity so small things do not trigger the unit. Keep the cat inside at night, and adapt the chance of tripping. |
| Case study: Angry aged parents |
Aged parents do not get on with neighbours: Establish if there was a reference time when things were OK. Define precisely the contrast problem(s) from the good stuff. Adapt the situation by speaking with the neighbours to sort out the situation ... and maybe send the folks on a holiday to give all a rest. |
| Case study: Kids have wild friends |
Unacceptable peer pressure is distracting your older teenage kids From the start, create a reference environment that you all like. Welcome contrast as part of the learning experience for your kids. Be prepared to accept adaption in a wider & open environment as life for everyone evolves. Don't be stubborn. Accept their growth. |
