Knoxxa:
Cutting edge remote security monitoring and reporting

The brief

To design a ‘family’ of electrical units which allow security guards to check in whilst on their rounds. This gives peace of mind to their employer as their activity can be tracked and each unit is equipped with a panic button. These devices were aimed at an African market and designed to be used both indoors and outdoors. Because of this the Knoxxa guard tracking units must withstand heavy rain and high temperatures.

The bang

Working with our electronics team to design the interior and the exterior of the units in tandem allowed us to make the check-in units more compact and focus on the user interaction. We made many smaller models on which we could act out the activities of the guards. Learning from these we were able to make the interface robust and intuitive. Once of the key challenges was to keep the units simple and communicate their purpose across different languages so that little to no extra training would be required for the guards.

The result

We have created a bold and stylish family of units incorporating finger print sensors, wifi, electronic locks and RFID readers. The units are very secure both to the ever changing weather and attempts to remove or meddle with the check-in stations. The beta prototypes have been tested in Africa for several months and we are now proceeding to industrial manufacture.

"We were most impressed with the efficient iterative design loops Bang Creations employed throughout the design development process, coupled to their inherent understanding and appreciation of a unique user experience and product interaction. The end design exceeded our expectations by delivering a fit for purpose holistic product, where aesthetic and functional requirements were completely fulfilled. Moreover, their additional support and guidance on peripheral matters like trademarking, branding and marketing was outstanding and really helped us as a start-up business. We look forward to working with BANG Creations in the next phase of mass production!" William, Akua & Jessica, Knoxxa Guard Track Directors.
