Paper Prototype“Design concept” - deco3500-2019/Team-Alpha GitHub Wiki

We are designed for households. Our design consists of three main components, a home terminal, a mobile touch panel and a smart socket. The main concern of our design is the touchable operation display controller.

The mobile display touch device mainly consists of a touchable display screen, which is divided into upper, middle and lower layers. The upper and lower layers are the display area of high energy consumption appliances, the display area of dormant appliances and the display area of normal operation appliances. The control panel will display all running, unrunning, and power-hungry devices. They will appear as ICONS. The icon has two options, one is emoji, the other is a thumbnail of the device it represents, and in the emoji state, the device name is displayed below the emoji. Users can switch between the two ICONS as they wish. The device will receive the processed data from the home terminal device and display it directly. If a high energy consumption device is detected, the icon will be displayed directly in the high energy consumption area, and the icon will produce some interactive effects, such as vibration. If it's an emoji, it's an unhappy emoji in a high-power area. If it is a thumbnail of a home appliance, it will appear in red. The device icon with no middle workspace will be greyed out. Under normal circumstances, the emoji or thumbnail image of a working appliance will be displayed in its own colour. The device can not only observe the power consumption of household appliances but also control the switch of household appliances. Simply drag the icon of the high-energy zone or the emoji of the running zone to the middle dormant zone to turn off the appliance. Similarly, you can drag the icon of the dormant state area to the bottom of the working area, and then turn on the power of the appliance.
