Today, with the increasing popularity of digital teaching, how to make scientific and technological tools more fit the actual teaching scene and improve the efficiency and experience of teaching and learning through excellent industrial design is an important topic in the field of educational equipment. Hertz Industrial Design Company, as a professional industrial design company deeply engaged in product innovation and design, recently successfully delivered a case of intelligent teaching audio products designed for general education scenes, which fully reflects our user-centered design concept and strong integration ability.

Project Background: Solving Real Classroom Pain Points

The traditional classroom sound system often has a single function, complex operation, or low integration with multimedia equipment, which affects the fluency of teaching. Our client, a leading educational technology enterprise, hopes to develop a smart audio system integrating audio expansion and multimedia interaction. The core requirements include:

Clear sound amplification: can be wirelessly connected to the teacher's microphone to ensure that the teacher's voice clearly covers the entire classroom.

Multimedia synchronization: equipped with display screen, real-time synchronous display PPT, video and other multimedia content key information or operation tips.

Convenient control: Teachers can easily adjust the volume and tone (tone) at the podium to adapt to different teaching contents and environments.

Durable and friendly appearance: adapt to the high-frequency use of the educational environment, the appearance needs to be professional, simple and full of affinity.

Hertz Design Solution: Harmonious Unity of Function and Aesthetics

As a professional product design company, the Hertz design team went deep into the school to conduct field research, observe teachers' habits, and listen to actual needs. For this project, our design highlights are:

Intuitive and efficient human-computer interaction:

Core dual-knob design: Two large-size physical knobs with moderate damping are set at a prominent position on the front, which are used to adjust the volume and tone (pitch) respectively. The surface of the knob is made of non-slip texture, which can be easily operated even if the teacher has chalk dust on his hands. Clear and intuitive identification, no learning costs, to achieve "blind operation".

Integrated display: The screen is located on the top of the audio, the size is moderate, and the angle has been carefully calculated to ensure that the teacher can see clearly when standing or sitting. It can display key information such as connected microphone status, current volume/tone level, multimedia device connection status (such as PPT page number, playback progress) in real time, and become the "information center" for teachers to control the classroom ".

Professional affinity product design:

Modeling language: simple and smooth geometric modeling, soft lines, avoid sharp edges and corners, create a safe, reliable, professional visual experience, fit the educational environment atmosphere.

Material and technology: the main structure is made of high-strength engineering plastics, and the surface is finely frosted, which is scratch-resistant and easy to clean. The design of the sound screen cover takes into account the acoustic performance and beauty, and the holes are arranged in an orderly manner, reflecting the sense of precision.

Color scheme: choose calm dark gray or science and technology blue/white commonly used in educational scenes as the main color, embellished with clear functional identification colors (such as the edge of the knob), which shows both professionalism and vitality.

Seamlessly integrated functional layout:

The microphone receiving module and multimedia interface (HDMI, USB-C, AUX, etc.) are all designed on the back or side of the sound. The layout is reasonable, the cable is easy to organize, and the podium is kept clean and tidy.

Fully considering the heat dissipation requirements, the bottom or side is designed with hidden heat dissipation holes.
