Cover of the Smart Beans design document with coffee beans and a cup

A coffee machine you start from your phone or with your voice, so your coffee is ready when you walk into the kitchen.

Problem

Every morning I walk to the coffee machine to choose a coffee and press brew. Neither of those actions has to happen at the machine.

Concept

Smart Beans adds Wi-Fi and a microphone to the machine, with an optional camera for gestures. You choose and start your coffee in an app, with your voice or with a gesture.

I worked out a conceptual model, a storyboard, the interface for each channel and how the channels work together.
