The shower timer project aims to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing device that alerts users when it's time to finish their shower, thereby saving water and reducing energy consumption.
I am aiming this product at a business who need a lot of people to take showers for example a gym.
environment for use
will mostly be used in showers but could also be used in other places.
ergonomic design
will be good for portability and compatibility
law
The product will be clearly labelled and it will have ce marking
production
I will use soldering to make the electronics and will be done in a safe workshop in a controlled area
aesthetics
size wont be too big or too small and will do it according to my clients needs
shape
I will ask my client but from my initial research they are usually circle
colour
should be something bright
i will ask my client
What anthropometrics would be used
i will figure out what type of light is the best for human eyes
environment impact
it will be good for the environment as it will be used to save water and energy therefore releasing less greenhouse gases
I will try and make sure most of the materials are recyclable or reusable
durability and reliablity
i will use certified equipment and materials to make sure the product will last the client long
function and purpose
The timer will make a sound to alert the person to alert the person and tell them to get out and save water. This will serve a purpose to save energy and to save money on electricity bills as heating up water takes up 17 percent of the electricity bill on average.
safety
no sharp edges so it wont hurt anyone
It will be waterproof on the outside so no water gets to electronics
