Smart Bathroom Interaction System
The choice of a smart bathroom interface
As part of my third-year curriculum in Media Design engineering, I was tasked with designing an interactive screen for an innovative product. I chose to develop an interface for a smart bathtub.
After conducting brief research, I realized that numerous separate systems exist in the market for each individual bathroom product. My decision was to integrate all these functionalities into a single screen, providing a unique bathing experience that includes interaction with an app store, a sound system, and even call answering capabilities.
This system offers comprehensive control over every feature available in the bathtub, such as floor heating, room heating, and an air purifier.
Your Stage
The emphasis was firmly placed on technology, aiming to create something that would stand out from the norm, something that makes you look at it and say, “I want that.”
Think about it: how many people in our building love to sing in the shower? With this system, you can now truly feel like you’re on stage.

Innovation Through Challenge
During the initial development phase, a significant challenge emerged: would the water in the bathtub affect the touchscreen’s functionality? Our brief research quickly led us to solutions, specifically highlighting projected capacitive touch (PCAP) technology.
This advanced screen technology, common in modern smartphones and tablets, uses an electrical field to detect touch through a protective layer, making it ideal for wet environments and ensuring precise, reliable interaction even with water present. Once we successfully resolved all technical issues and the product reached its initial stage, we recognized its potential to also function as a fully operational mirror.
