UX innovation in Product design
The design of the Adonia range of water heaters for Havells deals with an important and hitherto overlooked usability issue - how to indicate water temperature. Geysers the world over use Green/Red lights for this purpose, which can confuse users because of their loaded semantic messages - Go/Stop or Safe/Danger being used to indicate Cold/Hot.
Our user experience innovation was to use a ring of LED lights on the product fascia to show a colour transition from cool blue to deep red, intuitively indicating the gradual heating of the water within. This principle is a world first for water heaters and has been patented by the client.
