Seismic Mobile Application

Silver A' Design Award Winner 2023

This composite image presents a mobile application interface documentation photograph, formatted in square orientation with the upper half showing outdoor contextual photography and the lower half displaying three application screen mockups arranged horizontally. Beginning with the upper portion, two human hands occupy the central field, emerging from the bottom edge of the photographic section, one hand at left grasping what appears to be a specialized sensing device with olive-gray coloring and angular technical form featuring small protruding antenna elements, while the hand at right holds a smartphone displaying the application's welcome screen. The background environment consists of grass in varied green tones creating a soft textured carpet, with several fallen leaves in warm amber and golden tones scattered across the surface, and a substantial tree trunk with deeply furrowed bark rising vertically along the right edge. The smartphone screen shows a predominantly blue interface featuring the application name in white text, with a central graphic depicting concentric rippling circles in graduating blue tones from lighter cerulean at center through medium blues to deeper indigo at edges, evoking the visual concept of waves spreading outward from a central point. Moving to the lower register, three smartphone mockups present different functional views of the application, each featuring dark backgrounds that feel like deep charcoal or soft black, providing high contrast for interface elements. The leftmost screen displays a circular radar-style map with concentric rings marking distance measurements, numbered yellow markers indicating sensor or alert positions distributed across the field, and compass orientation indicators. The center screen presents a scrollable list of locations with timestamps and status indicators, using a traffic-light color system with red, yellow, and green markers denoting different alert states. The rightmost screen shows a numbered location directory in list format.

The seismic app provides an instant security service for facilities collaborating with seismic sensors wirelessly. The system consists of sensors, modems, and an app that enables remote management of sensor setup, settings, radars, and notifications. Instead of a handheld device, this app provides the simple benefit of only being on your mobile phone. Despite the technical content, it is designed for everyday app usage. Thus, the interaction is easy for every user. Alarms, cautions, and sensor states are demonstrated in distinctive colors on a dark background to make them easy to recognize.
