Ideal Boilers approached Melon to deliver the UI Design for an innovative new suite of products, developed to complement their established range of boilers and help move towards the IoT opportunity with connected products and intelligent control.
To deliver an IoT project utilising the necessary hardware improvements, software development and platform requirements would require a number of strategic partners, with specialisms in key disciplines.
After initial consultation Melon created concept ideas around traditional heating controls. This was a key requirement to ensure users of all ages and technical backgrounds could engage with the system.
Throughout the duration of the project Melon was able to deliver:
Melon was able to successfully deliver a complete UI solution, which could be integrated by all partners and scored very highly throughout consumer and usability testing.
The Ideal Touch range has been successfully launched to the industry and into homes throughout the UK.
