DESIGN NAME: Free Touch
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Movable light switch
INSPIRATION: In our home, there are many lights switch, most of them are fixed to the wall and can not move, which brings us a lot of inconvenience. You need to go to a fixed place to turn off or turn on the lights; You need to search for the switch,not let the switch be where you want it to be; You need to lay a lot of extra lines for the switch; You may even be troubled by an irrational switch position for a long time.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: "Free touch" is a new type of wireless switch, it brings a new way to open, and consists of two parts of the switch and the baseplate. The switch cosists of a small wafer with a new type of human body pressure sensing technology. You only need to attach it to anything you think is reasonable, and then do some natural touch, and it can light your lamp.There is a card slot on the baseplate and a solar panel on the back, and the battery is charged with solar energy.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: "Free touch" is small and flexible, so you can stick it to the head of the bed and control the bedside lamp, night light on and off by the rely on of the back.You can stick it on the handle of the door, and control the light in the room on and off by holding the doorknob.Of course, you can also stick it to the armrest of the chair, on the table, and any place you think is suitable to creat more unconscious, convenient ways of opening.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in November 2017 in Zhengzhou China and finished in February 2018 .
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Lighting Products and Fixtures Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The switch cosists of a small wafer with a new type of human body pressure sensing technology.There is a card slot on the baseplate and a solar panel on the back, and the battery is charged with solar energy. When the switch part needs to be charged, just need to put wafer into the card slot.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 30mm*30mm*2mm

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Type of Research:Investigation visit Access to information.
Research Objectives:Discover and solve the problem of traditional lamp switch.
Results:The traditional lamp switch laid the line cause the waste of resources. The use process isn't hommization.
Insights and Impacts:We should reduce the waste of lines and other resources. It's possible to create a way of use for the user while improving the man-machine relationship. So that the product will conform to the different habits of users.
CHALLENGE: In the process of production, ultra-thin pressure sensor will be a difficult, because it is hard to put many of the structure and components in such a small switch.Besides, the technology of signal transmission between switch and lamp will be a challenge.
