A selection of HMI design work on AI smart hardware —> #智能硬件
Background
AI smart hardware
This year, Alibaba started to build Tongyi AI, and tried to apply the ability to different products, so does our department. We were the pioneer to put AI into smart hardware in China.
Challenge
We have 7 products and each of them has very different screen size and interaction mode. Besides, to interact with AI on smart hardware is needed to be explored.
Selection
AI for wearable
To use AI in our smart hardware products, it is a must to interact between smart phone and hardware. Phone is responsible for dealing data between hardware and cloud service.
AI for educational portable devices
The educational portable devices(听力宝) are mainly for children under 12 years old. Therefore, the UI design should be interesting, and the user experience should be as easy as possible.
HMI Study
UX tips for individual developers
From all these cases, I collected and summaried the size of screen, and their interact distance, primary/secondary font size/button, so that I can find out the regular pattern, and make it as a guideline for individual developers.
Other HMI cases
Besides combining with AI tech, we also launched regular application for our products.
