Existing apps

Proposal
The platform we have chosen for our ‘Interface Concept
Development Task’ will feature as a mobile phone application. The real world
problem we have acknowledged is the inefficient use of energy in households,
with the use of our digital mobile application we hope to make domestic energy
consumption more economical.
Reaching our goals
To reach our goals we are going to make an ‘energy cost
calculator’ application which will allow the user to cut down on their energy
use and get suggestions on long term saving, the app will work out how long it
will take to pay off the installation of a solar panel being installed for
example, allowing the user to decide if they are prepared to look that far into
the future of their energy usage.
The application will include a slide bar which will allow
the user to enter their power usage to work our where most of their energy is
being used so they can balance it more accordingly.
Theme colours
The theme colours we have decided to go for are dark shades
of grey and dark green. We decided these colours were best as the dark colours
will use less power on the users mobile device, the dark green was chosen to
reflect the connotations of life and renewable energy sources which we stand
for.
