| DESIGN NAME: LAND PRIMARY FUNCTION: Desk Lamp INSPIRATION: At the end of a period of reading, we often habitually throw the book aside or put it back on the shelf at will, so we often cannot find the book and reading progress we read last time, and it is difficult to start the next reading. Over time, books were also put aside and no longer read. However, "Where there is light, there are people who read", we hope to use people's unconscious behavior from turning on the light to read to turning off the light and putting the book back, to establish a new form of physical interaction, which not only docks the books we are reading, but also Keep a record of your reading progress. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: LAND is a desktop lamp that can record reading status. It establishes a new form of physical interaction for desktop book reading tasks, replacing traditional lamp switch operations with continuous unconscious interaction behavior, and automatically re-sensing and turning off when the user finishes reading and puts the book back.As a bookmark, LAND helps track and record reading progress. LAND conveys a positive reading feedback to book enthusiasts, inspiring users to turn on the light and start the next reading experience.It also allows users to find a moment of tranquility and the opportunity to have a conversation with their own soul after a tiring day of work and social interactions. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: LAND establishes a new form of physical interaction for desktop book reading tasks, replacing traditional lamp switch operations with continuous unconscious interaction behavior, and automatically re-sensing and turning off when the user finishes reading and puts the book back.As a bookmark, LAND helps track and record reading progress. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in August 2022 in Nanjing and finished in February 2023 in Wuxi. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Lighting Products and Fixtures Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The slope of LAND is embedded with a gravity sensor. When the book is inserted back or taken out, the gravity of the book provides information to the sensor, which controls the opening and closing of the light to realize the interaction between light and the book. From the perspective of material technology, LAND uses sheet metal cutting and bending technology, which is easy to process and low in cost. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 6 mm x 16 mm x 30 mm TAGS: desktop reading lamp, bookmark style bookend, entity interaction RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We first used the observation method to find out that reading lovers would have discontinuous reading, and used this as a starting point for design research. First of all, through experiments, we get the best physical distance between users and books and the best way to place books. Then, carry out brainstorming and sketch deduction, use the shape of the island and the book as the interactive inspiration to get the shape of LAND, and through the thinking of unconscious design, get the interaction method of LAND and combine it with the shape, hoping to be able to through unconscious, physical The way of interaction enables users to have a smooth and convenient reading experience and improve the quality of life. CHALLENGE: In this design activity, the most difficult part lies in the conception of ideas and the decision of interaction methods. In this design activity, we strive to make a suitable design that can really improve user experience in a simple way. And this kind of design needs continuous divergence, and then summarizes and converges the design points. In the end, we used physical interaction to solve and meet user needs, and used sheet metal materials to make the shape of the desk lamp, which not only gave the desk lamp a light and smooth feeling, but also reduced the cost.
