Report
ENVI is a data visualization device designed to inform and create awareness among office workers about the current temperature in the office, using both self-reflecting and statistical feedback.
One of the main features of ENVI is its ability to provide real-time feedback on the temperature in the office. This is done through the use of an LED light animation, which indicates how the current temperature compares to the scientific standard for optimal working conditions. In addition to providing scientific temperature feedback, ENVI also utilizes a thermochromic ink visual to add an individualistic aspect to the device. The thermochromic ink visual consist of sections from different inks with different chemical reactions that change color based on the current temperature, allowing each ENVI device to have a unique appearance based on the local temperature around that specific office area. This individualistic aspect of ENVI can encourage office workers to reflect on their own comfort levels and make adjustments as needed. By displaying this information visually, ENVI can help office workers to quickly and easily assess the information concerning temperature in the office and make any necessary adjustments.
Furthermore, the unique appearances of each ENVI device can serve as a conversation starter or a way for office workers to bond over their shared work environment. This can lead to increased socialization and a sense of community within the office, which can have a positive impact on morale and overall job satisfaction. Overall, the ideal effect of ENVI would be to increase awareness about the temperature in the office and thereby contribute to an improvement in the office experience by creating a more comfortable and productive work environment for office workers.
Overall, the main goal of ENVI is to increase awareness among office workers about the temperature in the office. By creating this awareness and promoting self-reflection, ENVI has the potential to improve the comfort and productivity of office workers.
