User Interface Concept: Desktop Lamp

The longest blank since I started this blog! I have some better ideas (than the one below) drawn in my Moleskine, but there’s no time to draw 3D to show here. So here’s one that could be rendered relatively fast.

If a very light material could be used for the light, a desktop lamp of this width might be possible.

For controlling the area to be lit, use the “pinch” gesture on the UI screen.

To turn up the light, draw a circle clockwise. For turning down, do it counter-clockwise.

How about a USB memory stick that looks hungry when there’s no data in it?

The inflated belly means the memory is full.

Plug it in a USB port and start pumping it, then on the screen, the icon scatters what’s in it.

The harder you pump, the farther the icons travel.

iAcqua

Maybe I’m into projector concepts.

It’s an iPhone stand with a transparent touch screen, speaker and projector.
Dock your iPhone at the top.

Tilt it slowly to either side and your photos, songs or movies start running one after another at random like water coming out from a fountain. Each image will disappear in a few seconds. You can touch a photo to see it, a movie to play and a music icon to play the song.

Now turn up the faucet and when the dish is full, the images will be spilled on the floor, which are actually projection from the stand. You can also tilt the stand to spill images little by little to a certain direction.
And now you can play with larger images.

When you play music, you can see the visualizer working. Spill the visualizer on the floor and you see “full-screen” projected visualizer!
