Usability Experiment

  • How can you find an „intuitive“ control?
  • What is the most intuitive control device in the world?

➡ A wand!

  • Conducted a Guessability Study, where ten individuals

had to (virtually) turn off a light and open two window blinds using a wand

  • Test persons did not know about the project

by that time

Usability Experiment (cont‘d)

  • Observation: Nine out of ten individuals pointed at the light/blinds and

combined it with an up/down gesture

  • Can this interface be transferred to a smart phone control?
  • I gave the candidates a paper-iPhone and

asked them how they would perform the tasks with an iPhone

The Idea

Individually control home and office fixtures by simply pointing a smart phone at the target object and completing a specific gesture.

Visualize Advise Control

Visualize

  • Visualize status of heating, blinds, occupancy, air

quality, temperature, noise, windows (open/closed)

  • Visualize the energy consumption/savings in the

environment: Where are the energy hot spots? How do I have performed over the time? Control

  • Addressable Lights, Blinds,

Power Outlets, Heating, … Advise Provide valuable feedback to the user, e.g. by using push notifications:

  • CO2 or temperature above

threshold, window is closed => „Would you like to open the window?“

  • Turned light on, left room, room

empty => „Would you like to turn off the light?“

Our Mission „Support saving energy while providing highest user comfort in a smart space“
