So, I have a thought about what my concept could be from all the concept.
I built up specific rules so that it goes well together. Here are the rules (More like specification in design term)
Specs
1. The design must built on top of the D&F toolkit
2. The design should allow people to ‘connect’ input and output intuitively
3. One input should be able to use with many output
4. If possible, it should allows a combination of two or more condition to trigger an events
5. the sensors and output should be able to place in different
places that might be far apart from each other
6. The programming should use the format of IFTTT
(If this then that)
So, from that I have made some ideas up
After the evaluation with me and myself, I think that the one that make the most sense is the one that is wireless and use each of the sensor as a modular piece. The reason is that
- Having it wireless will allow these sensor and output to be placed anywhere and so it allows more flexibility of how the product can be used.
- Having every sensor as modular will not only contributed to the first part, it will also allows the the user to understand how each of the sensor behaves individually and it has better link with the Defining and structuring tool since the condition cards were made as an individual pieces. Thus created a direct connection between the two tools.
