Handheld terminal design points

Editor: Shenzhen Aima product design

In recent years, electronic technology, information technology, hardware technology combined with embedded rapid development. A variety of novel handheld devices greatly facilitate people's lives. Handheld terminal equipment in the industrial, military, civil applications in a wide range of fields. For example, the common handheld cash register, mobile payment handheld, handheld walkie-talkie, handheld power inspection terminal, warehousing and logistics code scanning gun and so on. With the progress of technology, changes in user needs, people's requirements for handheld terminal form and function continue to improve, more high-quality handheld terminal products have emerged in the market. So, how to design a more popular handheld terminal?

1, simple and beautiful appearance design

People say that the first impression is very important, simple and beautiful appearance determines whether the product has the desire to be purchased by customers. From the user's point of view, consider the aesthetic tendency of the user group, optimize and innovate in the shape, color, material, process, etc., in the details to conquer the picky users.

2, good handheld grip

Handheld terminals, as the name suggests, are used by the hand for a long time, the grip must be comfortable. Therefore, the modeling design should be ergonomic, thin and portable, easy to handheld operation, and through the details of the humanized design, intuitive interactive interface design, to improve the reliability of handheld operation, simplicity and comfort.

3, communication stability

The communication stability of the handheld terminal is manifested in two aspects, one, the communication module to choose a good stability. Second, the antenna design and structural design of the handheld terminal should be closely matched to ensure that the antenna releases the best performance. In addition, the handheld terminal needs to be repeatedly tested in specific environments and continuously improved to ensure the stability of communication performance.

4, in line with the industrial protection level requirements

Usually, the working environment of the handheld terminal is relatively harsh, if the industrial protection level of the handheld terminal is not enough, it is easy to get into the water into the dust, in the long run, within such as the electronic components are easy to be damaged, the service life is greatly shortened, so the industrial level of the handheld terminal must be up to standard. Handheld terminal design should take into account the use of environmental factors, the necessary industrial three-proof design, so that the product protection level in line with industry standards, such as handheld terminal industrial protection level IP54, IP65, etc., in order to improve the environmental adaptability of the product and the use of the reliability of the product to meet the product's industry requirements for the use of the environment.

5, drop resistance

The drop resistance of the handheld terminal is particularly important, not only to ensure that the work is carried out normally, but also to extend the service life of the handheld terminal as much as possible. In the design of handheld terminal, need to ensure that the components of the fall resistance, to ensure that the product fall resistance, such as handheld terminal around the silicone protective layer, the internal use of magnesium alloy bracket to protect the motherboard and LCD, etc., to do a good job in every detail in order to ensure that the product's durability and resistance to fall to achieve all-round protection.

Excellent handheld terminal design needs to take into account the product function, appearance, man-machine, environment and other factors, people-oriented, pay attention to product design innovation, deal with the details of the problem, so that the product's performance parameters are in line with national industry standards, to ensure the stability and reliability of the product function, to improve the environmental adaptability of the product and the operation of the safety of the simplicity and comfort, for the user to bring a more humane The product experience is more humanized for the users.
