Input Devices

On the week of September 26th, we spoke about input devices and their effects on many other products. They definitely have had an impact on enhancing the user's experience as shown in the devices such as Webcams. These such cameras have taken a simple experience as surfing the web and have greatly enhanced it to being able to visually communicate with another user. It's advances such as these that have greatly revolutionized the technological industry and continue to do so until this day.

This lecture goes perfect with my new innovative idea of creating a way for the the intercom system to send a notification to the owner's cell phone so that they can see who actually is knocking on their door. The best bet would be to invent an application that would allow the intercom system to send the video notification of the person who is at the door. Ideally, it would be running over a wifi connection. Also, it would be similar to that of Apple's FaceTime, or the application Tango. It would revolutionize the whole intercom system and would help bring a deeper sense of security for those who have this intercom system.

  1. Very good idea I can't tell you how many times I've had the mail man go to my house and nobody be at home and had to pick up my package at the mail center, with this I could just tell him to leave the package on the door or with a neighbor. I liked how you incorporated the video so you could actually see who is at the door.
