Throughout the current design of most calculators and office stationery, their appearance styles are mainly simple, and the styling techniques are almost all derived from the division of a round body. Presumably because the functions represented by the calculator have been carried on too many devices, in addition to aesthetics, it rarely pursues other spiritual personality.
Therefore, the ID of this work is based on futurism and the present. Faced with a group that still has such feelings, I designed a mediocre but good “addition and subtraction” futuristic calculator. Emphasize simple “addition and subtraction”.
Analyzed the styles of several calculators in different eras, the most classic is the structure of the sliding cover with a shell, and I also conceived the operation form of the sliding cover. But I have to say that the current minimalist calculator concept is also very simple, and the color scheme is also in my heart.
The sketches probably explain the various functional areas. On the one hand, the idea of the slider is to let the machine have advanced computing functions at the same time, and on the other hand, it also pays tribute to the classics. Known functions can be programmed modules, so I reserved fewer module positions. +-Stands alone as the main visual element.
The model is also being further designed. The overall effect of the button area is seen on the left. The right part is simply divided into parts, and the thin part on the shell is reinforced with ribs later.
Do a few more plans to consider the rationality, and decide to cancel the delete button. Give this pot to the back of the PCB, maybe you can delete it by pressing + twice and then -.
Detailed things need to be determined, surface logo design, speaker holes, and parts. Of course, I finally changed the shape of the chin of the machine. Now this flat face doesn’t look good for a long time.
The overall shape is moderate, because the positioning of this machine is like this, traditional, but more sturdy, the feeling of the first generation of robots, just play a good calculator. The following models will use different styles.
Customized modules are opened on the side, and functions and calculations can be set on the applet. If there is a UI, of course, suppose there is a UI. The UI interface has the same four modules as the calculator. Just drag the formula into the module with your finger and press it on the calculator. It’s okay if you don’t have a mobile phone. Just press plus and minus together and watch the screen prompts.
If you need to customized the same looking or similar as this, we can help you develop and make it more cost-effective.
