Abstract
The historical and company context of the original audiophoto work, very much influenced what happened next within HP. And what happened next, unfolded both as an impact on HP products but also on the ongoing research work carried out by other research scientists in the Labs and Divisions. I review these different impacts in the following two Sects. 7.2 and 7.3.
With some simplification, we can divide the inquiry into two main categories: user oriented and technology oriented. Both are equally important! Without a strong grounding in potential users’ desires and needs, it is unlikely that any new idea will gain traction. But at the same time, an invention may be ever so desirable, but if it is not actually within the possibilities of existing or future technology, it will simply never be realised Holmquist (2012, p. 39)
