Video intercom




Video intercom monitor and control panel.
User interfaces are increasingly being designed as intelligent and reactive surfaces.The Apple I-phone has strongly enhanced this design direction and set a new standard in terms of “perceived technological quality”. Mechanical buttons and knobs are replaced by 2D touch sensitive icons. Interaction becomes more intuitive and the user gains the overall sensation that a more direct connection has been established between his intentions and the device’s response.
Planux falls within this trend category: the control icons light up when a hand approaches the unit and every function can be activated by gently touching the icons or the screen menus. These soft interactions are matched by a minimal and relaxing design based on simple reassuring geometrical shapes such as squares and circles.
