A good product should not only carry the general functions but also provide users with convenience and safe application performance to satisfy various users’ needs. This product design case is an intelligent range hood embedded with multiple innovative functions and purposes: real-time and accurate heat detection, intelligent air control system, silent odor elimination mode, cleaning reminder, timer function, two-in-one easy-to-clean deflector, intuitive operation panel, etc., together creating a new type of “smart home, kitchen, and bathroom.” The product’s exterior is designed with rounded corners on both sides, preventing the users from head injuries during cooking and reflecting the brand image of thoughtfulness and delicateness. Besides, the stainless steel material with the one-piece black glass panel and the rose gold logo is engraved to reveal the elegant texture. On top of that, the upper edge of the product is beveled to create a light and neat visual impression. In view of the fact that improper temperature during cooking might cause the oil to reach the fuming point, thus producing harmful fumes, the design team has resourcefully equipped the device with heat detection and an intelligent air control system. Accordingly, these two additions not only notify the users when the oil temperature is optimal for cooking and alert individuals when the oil temperature is too high, which protects the user's health and safety. Through the thermal image detection function, the temperature inside the pot is instantly detected and fed back to the intelligent air control system so that the cooking process does not need to be manually adjusted. Namely, the device itself will automatically evaluate and provide the required airflow. Besides, when one finishes cooking, the device will automatically purify the air in the room with a 42dB noise cancellation mode to achieve noise reduction and solve the effect of grease and smoky smell. Moreover, a stand-alone timer function that does not affect the motor operation is added to assist in the long cooking time. An intelligent error detection system will take the initiative to determine abnormal components to avoid overloading damaged parts, thus improving the safety of the application.
