As computing becomes more ubiquitous in our objects, designers need to be more aware of how to design meaningful interactions into electronically enhanced objects.

Knolling it.

Team: Nate Smith, Aliaksei Zhurankou.

For our knolling experiment we disassembled a charging stand for the Ember ceramic mug (Photo 1). The mug allows you to keep liquid at the preset temperature. The temperature can be controlled within an app and ranges between 120º  and 145º Fahrenheit.

Inside the stand we found following components (Photo 2):
1. Top and bottom housing elements;
2. Mounting hardware for charging elements;
3. Logical circuit board;
4. Charging contact elements.
