Design target

A compact home overview with four primary domains, clear active states, and short paths to the controls used most often.

Product contextWall-mounted smart home controller
ComputeESP32-S3 class MCU
RuntimeESP-IDF with FreeRTOS
DisplayRound touch display
Resolution480 x 480 design target
InputCapacitive touch

Interaction model

A focused screen structure for the product context, before hardware integration choices are locked.

  1. Home overview for climate, lighting, energy, and saved scenes
  2. Tap-through detail views with direct value adjustment
  3. Persistent connectivity and system-state feedback
  4. Large touch targets designed for a circular active area

Implementation outline

These are engineering considerations for scoping a comparable interface. Final architecture depends on the confirmed board, display, SDK, memory budget, and data interfaces.

What a working demo should prove

Navigation remains clear without relying on readable labels alone.

Touch targets remain usable close to the circular edge.

Status changes remain visible without adding distracting motion.
