An Award-Winning Smart Lock Product

The James Lock IoT smart door lock wins CMF Design Award 2020 and it is one of the two smart lock products shortlisted for this award in the smart lock industry. The product design is outstanding in color, material, craft, and texture. From unboxing, and lock installments, to user experience, Janes Lock Kub IoT Smart Lock surprised the door lock industry.

Janes Lock Kub IoT Smart Lock Project Story

Function Design

In order to improve the use value of smart door locks and break the traditional lock design boundaries, LKKER SCM innovatively integrates fingerprint recognition and a protective sliding cover into the handle module, redefining the product form, and highlighting the protection and safety features.

The lock side is designed to be suspended. When the door lock is used, the light is illuminated from the side, which reflects the technological sense of the product and does not directly illuminate the human eye.

User Interaction Design

To differentiate from the existing smart door locks in the market, LKKER SCM design team increases the user experience of products and consumers, enhances the commercial value of products, and also enhances the sense of security of products for consumers, so that products can be outstanding from the existing smart door locks.

Safety Design

LKKER SCM highlights the safety issues of the product, hoping to make users feel “welcomed” when they return home through the experience of lighting effects. With the concept of suspension, the lighting is designed on the operation panel and the lock shell. In between, when the lights came out, it was like welcoming us home. In addition, adding a sliding cover to the position of the fingerprint lock achieves dual protection of psychological and practical safety.

User Experience Design

The durability and continuous performance of the process allow the lock to maintain a certain quality for several years, avoiding unnecessary losses caused by excessive loss. In addition, the door handle also takes into account the comfort of the hand and enhances the user’s experience from vision to touch.

Janes Lock Kub IoT Smart Lock Product Highlight

The Janes Lock IoT smart door lock reflects the sense of smart technology in the home and the quality of the product. The whole body is made of zinc alloy die-casting. The product is strong and not easy to destroy. The IML process used on the surface panel can achieve a smooth touch feel on the surface.

The Janes Lock IoT smart door lock is the first smart door lock to achieve double-layer protection, taking into account the protection of the home and the safety of the family, showing the minimalist beauty and high-level sense of “less is more”.

The Janes Lock IoT smart door lock will completely subvert the user’s impression that the slider is “not convenient enough”. Even if the user is carrying a heavy object, the user can easily push the slide cover with one finger. Because of the direct and coherent “one-grip” operation, the entire door opening process will be convenient and economical.

Background

What are the ways out of such competitive market of similar products and low-cost competition for IBaking? Should it persist in intelligence faced with the emergence of pseudo-intelligence? The IBaking team chose to cooperate with LKKER SCM, with the expectation to break through in product differentiation and user experience.

The LKKER SCM team was entrusted by IBaking, a subsidiary of Haier, to develop a third-generation oven and redefine the target group and smart oven. Through life observation of the target group and product benchmarking analysis, LKKER SCM team gave IBAaking third generation oven strong identification and new brand reputation from the design direction definition to the mechanism research and development, and to the aesthetic design and the user experience design.

Solutions & Goal

1.LKKER SCM team has created unique identification points for IBaking so that users can remember the product at first sight. The team designed the oven in a rounded and warm shape and texture with an intimate and dynamic interactive experience that broke the product identification of the traditional square oven. It not only established a rounded identification point but also injected more interest in life for Haier Baker, creating a better baking experience.

2.The team paid attention to the smallest detail of the design to give the baker a better user experience; the LKKER SCM team proposed the concept of a frontally inward 8 degree door panel, providing the baking masters with a more comfortable window. The integration of display and operation handle, the fast ring thumbwheel design, the concealed water tank, the sunken upper and lower heating tubes, every detail of Haier Baker is carefully considered to allow a perfect combination of function and experience.

3.The first to propose modular oven camera. LKKER SCM has designed a modular pluggable camera assembly for the back of the IBaking oven. The position of the camera has been selected by hundreds of lighting simulations, only to allow the user to better broadcast every detail of his/her baking.

Achievements

 The LKKER SCM team successfully delivered the third generation of ovens for IBaking, making IBaking a leader in product innovation and user experience innovation in the field of smart ovens.

During the 2016 Shanghai International Bakery Exhibition and CES Asia, IBaking released its third generation of ovens, which immediately became a hit; As the core carrier of baking 3.0, the IBaking oven brings a new design experience to the household and marks the first step of IBaking baking ecosystem.

At the 2018 LKKER SCM·LKKER Imagination Conference in Beijing, the third generation of IBaking ovens once again caught the eyes of the participants and earned good reputation.

BACKGROUND

As a century-old Taiwan brand, Tatung has a history of 55 years in electric cooker. LKKER SCM was entrusted by Tatung to develop an office workers-specific electric cooker that integrates multiple functions including porridge, soup, steamed seafood, stewed chicken and hot pot. The transparent lid design allows users to see the delicious food.

Solutions & Goal

The inside of the electric cooker is dissipated through the aluminum alloy, causing the switch temperature to be too high, the heat dissipation to be poor, the switch components to be thermally deformed, and bringing the user bad experience. In view of this, we added a heat-proof cover and designed the handle with transparent acrylic to reduce heat conduction while not affecting the function of the product.

 

Achievements

Good home appliances survive the “fastness” of the times, the fast food and people’s lives with quality. The definition of deliciousness is not to use too much technology and contents to cover up the taste of food and fundamentally change its nature, but to maximize the original taste of the food itself. Unlike other brands of cookers, Tatung electric cooker combines the traditional steamers and modern cooking techniques under which the outer pot is loaded with water and heated to evaporate to the temperature set by the temperature control before entering the heat preservation mode (the cooker will trip to heat preservation after the water in the outer pot boils away), making the food delicious, nutritious, but not greasy.
