I always wanted to make a series of electronic products. Different, attractive, fancy, and playable, can make people passionate about it. When people are free, they can use their function while enjoying them and play them in hands, like a toy.
I started with the design steps to make them more logical and have more potential for development.
Inspired by Daniel Weil's Bag Radio.
Broke down a Bluetooth speaker into six functional components, speakers, Bluetooth, amplifiers, decoders, audio interfaces, and batteries. I brainstormed each part and looked for words to describe how people’s impression of each part. Then, these words are transformed to 2D graphic. Finally, select the appropriate graphics and combinations.
Then I contacted them through the led lighting effects. When people hold down the start button, they will glow in order and different ways. The button can be released until the entire system is turned on.
One can recognize this product from the shape and motion that it is a speaker and fully understands how it works and can interact with it.
本作品是一个系列的电子产品的开始。与众不同的,吸引人的,炫酷的,好玩的,能使人对它充满激情。当人们空闲下来的时候,可以边使用它们的功能,边欣赏它们,边在手中把玩它们。就像一个玩具。
从设计步骤上入手,让他们更有逻辑,有更多发展的潜能。
受到了Daniel Weil的Bag Radio的启发。
将一个蓝牙音响分解了成了6个功能性的部件,喇叭,蓝牙,功放,解码器,音频接口,电池。我对每一个部件做了一个头脑风暴,寻找一些词汇去形容人们对每个部件的印象。然后我将这些词汇转化成2D图形的形式。最后选出合适的图形,组合。
之后我通过led的灯光效果将它们联系到一起。当人们按住开始按钮时,它们会按顺序,并且通过不同的方式亮起。直到将整个系统启动开才可以松开按钮。
人们可以从这个电子产品的形状和动作上分辨出这是一台音响,能够充分理解到它的工作原理,并且可以与之互动。
