Nowadays stress seems to be at the center of our lives, we tend to forget imported things, even our bodies needs. Since we don’t take care of ourselves we suffer from more stress caused by headaches, reflux etc. With this in mind, U.ni is designed to remind you simple needs and encourage you to take care of yourself more, therefore, a less stressful life. With U.ni you can put yourself at the center of your universe.
DESIGN PROCESS
Creating a CMF (colour, material & finish) board at earlier stage helped to think about materials and textures eventually will be used in the project.
Research around sensors and displays was helpful in terms of determining the components that needed during the design process.
IDEA DEVELOPMENT
Instead of using animated characters as the interface, I embedded an abstract face within the body.
User ScenarIo
With placing their hands on the screen users can stop the alert.
The screen plays the water filling animation alerting that user should consume some water.
After the user places their hand on the screen, the water animation draws down.
