Revolutionizing Office Spaces: The Intelligent Doorplate

Ying Li, Tao Li, Meng Xu and Yun Hua Introduce a New Era of Meeting Room Efficiency

The inspiration behind the Du Conference was the complexity of managing meeting spaces. From reservation to equipment and environment, the designers saw a need for a system that could streamline these processes and create a more user-friendly environment. The result is an intelligent meeting space that provides transparent space use, intuitive information, and a friendly environment.

The Du Conference stands out for its unique properties. It leverages the revolution of the Internet of Things to transform office environments. The intelligent doorplate system creates friendly information spaces and environment perception, enhancing employees' sense of belonging and happiness. This innovation is a response to the growing need for more efficient use of office space, as traditional spatial planning often leads to wasted space.

The intelligent system of the Du Conference provides real-time data and environment monitoring. It synchronizes information across smartphones, tablets, and computers, creating an integrated framework for various meeting space scenarios. The product's design emphasizes fast identification and use in real scenes, with a high-resolution touch screen, a front camera, and side light bars that highlight color information transfer.

The Du Conference is operated through intelligent one-click operation, face recognition, and QR code technology. It ensures timely information circulation, which directly affects the occupation of the meeting space. The intelligent doorplate reveals the space status through color changes, and the environmental equipment displays the environmental scheme of the period, offering a comfortable meeting environment.

The design process of the Du Conference began in June 2021 and was implemented within the enterprise in July. The designers conducted extensive research on human-computer interaction and the integration of space devices. They used ambient sensors to improve the collection of environmental data and understand users' demands based on their using behavior and data measurement. This research laid the foundation for improving user experience across the enterprise.

The Du Conference has overcome significant challenges in intelligent system construction, including the timely circulation of space information and accurate human body positioning. The designers aimed to achieve diversity and inclusiveness in the intelligent space, improving the integration of environmental data and interaction experience to develop an all-round intelligent meeting space.

The Du Conference has been recognized for its innovation and design excellence, winning the Silver A' Interface, Interaction and User Experience Design Award in 2022. This prestigious award is given to top-of-the-line, creative, and professionally remarkable designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise and innovation. The Du Conference is a testament to the power of design in transforming the way we work and interact in office spaces.
