The assignment was to research and design the next generation AI home improvement device. From my research, I realized that most of the existing solutions are a later addition to the original interior design. They usually take up extra space and look tacky. I began by looking into the items most people already have in their living room.
The idea was to implement the
AI assistance feature into an existing piece of home product. I saw an opportunity with photo frames. People love to have photos in their living room, what if I can digitize it...
I used virtual reality to view my initial 3d CAD model and get a sense of my form and dimension constrains.
To save space, I experimented with locating the I/O ports on the stand. After many iterations, I chose a nal design.
将3d模型带入虚拟现实的表现手法，我进一步的确定了机体的大致形状。在确定具体尺寸之前，虚拟现实让我有对其尺寸的大概感知。对于机体背部的处理，我选择了将接口和指甲相结合的手法，不仅部分遮挡了繁琐的接口，额切省下了一些空间。
