Your day starts when you wake up, but work doesn't have to. The Yuno is the perfect personal computer for any professional business person or anyone who is always on the go. Not only is it a mug for your morning beverage, it is also a touchscreen display for only the information you want to see, so you are not bound to a desktop during your morning routine. The Yuno is all about You.
Passion
The Yuno PC is aimed at business professionals with a passion for success. It is not designed to help someone perform any one specific task, but rather for those with many responsibilities who care about making the best out of their life in all professional aspects. Time is very valuable, and relaxation and mental health is very important for day-to-day functioning. The Yuno enhances your morning routine by letting you do what you want, and know what you want, while staying updated with things that are important to the user. It frees you from the shackles of every other normal computer.
Users’ Culture & Lifestyle
This design speaks to a large audience, all with a busy lifestyle whose time is valuable in the sense that it is important to relax and enjoy your morning before going to work. Everyone has a morning routine which usually involves drinks like coffee, tea, and juice, also checking and watching for things like stocks, traffic, or an email from your boss. Portable technology is becoming more apparent and ideal. Computers are now so important to the lives of business professionals but they don’t always want to use a cell-phone and navigate through it, or sit at a desk with a mouse or a laptop. The Yuno helps you with these and other things to make your day easier, more efficient, and more enjoyable without being tied down. People need to be updated with information on a real-time basis in order to maximize productivity, but not always do we have a computer handy or another capable device that can do so. I think people would be exited to buy something that they would get so much use out of.
Market Viability
The Yuno appeals to many types of business professionals and lends itself to the portable computer and device market. It could be sold next to the laptops in any electronics store, and because of its simple design and its disguise as a stylish mug, it would be a huge success among even the most unlikely of markets.
Size
One of the great things about the Yuno PC is that it is ultimately a single entity. The mug measures 6.25 inches tall and 3.75 inches wide, not including the handle. It’s about the same size as an average insulted on the go mug. There are no peripheral tools or devices required to use it, and if you need to wash it in the dishwasher, the CPU bottom detaches. Also, the lid comes off for quick cleaning and filling. However, the Yuno is essentially a beverage mug so it must be simple and handy, not to mention sleek and stylish.
Overview of Design
The innovation in the Yuno PC is realized at first glance. There is a computer display screen around a coffee mug all of which is designed to help you get the most out of your morning. It offers you immediate information on things you care about most without even touching the device. After you set the things you want to see, you don’t have to touch it for it to keep you informed. Let Yuno let you know.
User & Context
The users are business professionals who need to stay informed of things like stocks, email, and traffic. This product will be used everyday for several hours at least. It is even something that those around you will appreciate when new information is received.
Scenarios of Use
This design represents the possibility of always being satisfied in any scenario. It is business and communication based targeting those who are connected to the world.
User Interface
This PC is so easy to use, all it takes are a few touches to display what you want and then you leave it. It then becomes a beverage mug, an incredibly informative beverage mug. The Yuno is perhaps the most intuitive computer, because not only does it work without you operating it, you drink from it increasing the user interface on another level.
Aesthetics
Its appearance as a mug or even a vessel to drink from enhances its connection to the user. What other device can you get aid for the needs of your body? There are many healthy drinks one can consume, and the instinctual need to drink water is understood and shared by not only every culture, but by so much life on this planet. The cup of water is an idea so old it’s hard to imagine where it started.
Technical Aspects
The only new technology required is an organic light emitting diode, or OLED, screen. It has to be curved in design. This technology is entirely possible and that is all you need for this completely intuitive next-generation personal computer.
Ecology
The Yuno is very environmentally friendly because of its size. All the components are no bigger than they should be for an average mug, and the size of the screen is limited as well. This also means the power it takes to run it will become less and less of a factor as technology improves. It is essentially made from plastic and metal which can be recycled. OLED displays require less energy to operate than LED’s, and any part on the Yuno can be made of updated materials that are better for the environment. The detachable bottom also makes either part easily replaceable. This design will also offset the user's consumption of other disposable cups made from plastic, paper, and of course Styrofoam.
Manufacturability
The Yuno is quite simple to manufacture. There is a limited number of parts, and the materials do not require anything especially harmful to the environment. This design would not require massive processing power, or elaborate cooling features, thus making it very quiet.
