Dry goods | Intelligent lock ergonomics evaluation indicators - interactive interface

This article will focus on the analysis of smart locks, a very important evaluation indicator - interactive interface.

Interface interaction

It can be said that if the product is likened to the epitome of a building, then the interface is the key to the building. The importance of the product interface has led industrial designers to start to pay attention to a new field of interface design. With the reference of interface design in the field of industrial design, product design is freed from the dispute between function and shape, and transferred to the design. The object's attention.

When many users face the interaction panel of some products, they will have more or less doubts about their operation mode and the use of buttons. This makes the user not only unable to get a happy mood, but even basic operations. It can't be done smoothly, so users are deprecated because they feel complicated. Therefore, a good interactive interface should conform to the physiological and psychological characteristics of the user, and can take into account the user's cognitive processing ability and habits. The way information is presented and interacted with it can satisfy users' efficient and accurate acceptance of information and correct response.

The evaluation factors of the first-level indicators of interface interaction are analyzed, and seven secondary indicators are decomposed and summarized, which are the layout of the functional area of ​​the operation panel, the appropriateness of the function mode, the easy-to-learn and easy-to-use control program, and the height of the panel and the operation area. / Angle, terminology and graphical symbols, operating status and feedback information, character visibility.

1. Operation panel layout

In the layout of the operation panel function area, since each visual element belongs to different functions and operation modules, they can be organized together by a certain relationship to form a whole, so that the user can link the elements of the same content together. Considering that the operation panel of the smart lock is small, how to layout the function options in a limited size area allows the user to use it conveniently and quickly, which is the first problem to be considered in the design of the smart lock interface.

2. Height/angle of panel and operating area

All the functional program operations of the smart lock are almost realized by processing the information of the display panel and operating in the operation area. Therefore, the height and angle design of the panel and the operation area should be designed according to the ergonomic principles, such as reading. The user's neck and waist can be more comfortable when taking visual information displayed on the interface. This means that the display position and angle of the interface visual information should allow the user to view or read the information on the interface in a natural relaxed state, and the information should be presented in the user's field of view. In addition, access to the home is a frequent occurrence in daily life, so the use of smart locks to open and close the door is also a high-frequency behavior, and its operating area should also be in the most sensitive, easy-to-operate, and reachable space of the human body. Arranged at the most convenient angle of operation.

3, the appropriateness of the functional mode

In the family use scenario, smart locks are always the core requirement for protecting family safety. Different families may need different functional modes to meet the needs of different groups of people. This requires the designer to weigh the power of the smart lock to meet the needs of the target family for the functional mode, but not to make the operation panel too complicated to reduce the experience.

4. Easy to learn and easy to use control program

The function of the smart lock is essentially realized by executing the commands of the control program. The control program needs to have good usability, the control of the program needs to be easy to understand and learn, and the user can perform efficient and accurate operations on the program. Then the design of the control program needs to be able to reduce the user's cognitive load from the user experience, so that people can judge the operation mode of the program according to the daily life experience. Learning from people's strategies and methods for solving problems in real life, good control procedures should be based on ergonomic principles and human physique and other physical and psychological characteristics, and the relationship in spatial position should be consistent with the expectations of general users. The metaphor used allows users to quickly find real-world reference objects, understand operational methods, and make predictive decisions about operational behavior and interface feedback.

5, operating status and feedback information

After each operation, the user must explicitly let the user feel that his operation is responsive and effective. Let the user feel that the current communication with "he" is a "sensuous friend", not a cold and unpredictable machine. The user should have certain predictability for the operation, which requires the user to have a clear understanding of whether the smart lock has accepted the instruction and what state it is in. Regardless of the complexity of the steps, the user can clearly see and understand the working status of the product and possible methods of operation.

6, terminology and graphical symbols

A symbol refers to an information medium that is used to replace or represent a particular thing, and many of which are derived from the visual information of the item. The essence of the graphical symbol in the interface is to convey information, so the communication of the graphical symbol information needs to be adapted to the user's habits, and the recognition and understanding of the user is reduced according to the perceived characteristics of the user. Using things, images, words, and colors that are related to the content and meaning of the symbols, the current methods need to be as concise as possible, and use simple elements to express clear concepts, which can more accurately convey information and help users understand. There is a standard for judging the quality of graphic symbols, that is, the understanding of its meaning does not require additional textual description.

In the use of terms, it is necessary to avoid using overly specialized terms and try to use words that are easy for the public to understand.

If it is a term and a graphic symbol that represent the same type of concept information, it must be consistent. The functional definitions of the same concept must also be consistent in the definition of the function name. In the use of the prompt information, the same type of information uses the same prompt method and form to enhance the user's cognition to avoid confusion; for example, in the setting of graphic symbols such as buttons, the same level of button size, texture effect, shape There is a consistent relationship, such as the consistency principle in the design of such details.

7, character visibility

As the presentation of visual information, especially in textual form, the visibility of characters is an important factor affecting the experience of use. First of all,

The interface information should be clear, don't use traditional characters, the font settings are not too small, and the characters and background should have appropriate contrast, so as not to cause visual fatigue when users use or operate, especially some older people have more font requirements. . In order to highlight and emphasize the contrast of important information, we should pay attention to the contrast of font colors.


Laser Cutting

Laser cutting provides greater precision in stator and rotor machining, using a highly focused beam that acts as a heat-affected zone during cutting without causing extensive thermal damage to adjacent surfaces. The finishing is cleaner, smoothing the edges of complex shapes and designs. Laser cutting machine with computer numerical control function, laser cutting process can be automatically controlled by the pre-designed machine program. CNC controlled laser cutting machines reduce the risk of operator error and produce more precise, precise parts with tighter tolerances.
The use of laser cutting method can reduce the total lead time, the total cost of production. For laser cutting, it can be processed by drawing, without making molds, and without mold replacement and setting between materials or material thickness. Compared with traditional cutting methods, laser cutting setup times can be greatly reduced and it involves more machine programming than loading materials.
Lower material cost
Our current production technology supports laser cutting for stator and rotor production.
