Design Considerations

The unique challenge presented by this project was the opportunity to design an interface that is targeted to a embedded hardware and touch screen. The focus for the interface prototype is on the “personal” hub device. This is a dedicated device that is used by one or two members of the household. It will be located away from the central hub and have a subset of the functionality of it. The flowchart below illustrates the home automation features while driving and on arrival.
