AinaOpen Smart Fridge
AinaOpen builds smart-fridge retail systems. My contribution was the customer-facing touchscreen experience, not the marketing website pictured here.

The problem to solve
A customer standing at a fridge needs to understand what the machine expects and what happens next. The interface has to work in a physical setting, with limited attention and changing light conditions.
My contribution
I reworked the touchscreen UX/UI from an existing prototype and created its screen graphics, animations and reusable components. The work covered the customer interaction, with the wider team responsible for the hardware and supporting systems.

How the experience took shape.
Research
Learn from familiar purchase behaviours
I studied comparable vending and smart-fridge interactions to understand selection, verification, payment and receipts. This gave the design a familiar sequence rather than requiring customers to learn a new one.
Feedback
Use motion to clarify state
Screen graphics and animation communicate what the machine is waiting for and what has just happened. Their purpose is to support the next action, not compete with it.

Result & reflection
The touchscreen design was delivered for the smart-fridge product. The public site shows the current hardware and service; it does not document every screen from my design work.
