Engineering Scope
The development of low-power conference room door signs is oriented to the usage requirement of "the conference room needs to display reservation status and support sign-in", and the collection, processing, communication and power supply are designed as one set of products. The project can start from new main board development, existing firmware modification or designated module integration. The development scope is confirmed based on the target function, existing foundation and delivery requirements.
Interfaces and Product Integration
Develop reservation data synchronization, display, button or card reading interface, offline content and battery prompts.
Power Supply and State Scheduling
Synchronize the appointment summary and refresh according to business changes; wake up and send check-in events during interaction.
Data and System Integration
Clarify the connection and data format around the display, button or card reader, and reservation system interface, and define recording, transmission, confirmation, and abnormal status.
Prototypes, Testing and Deliverables
Form interface firmware, reservation synchronization protocol, interaction logic and offline status testing, focusing on verifying content update timeliness, interactive wake-up, network disconnection behavior and reading peripheral energy consumption.
System Architecture and Operation
Synchronize the appointment summary and refresh according to business changes; wake up and send check-in events during interaction.
- Interface composition: display, button or card reader, reservation system interface.
- Work scheduling: Determine each status based on sampling, interaction and reception requirements, indicating which circuits continue to run.
- Exception handling: Define deadlines, bounded retries, and recovery behaviors for applicable communication, sensing, or execution tasks.
Design Conditions and Functional Limits
Reservation system permissions, data sources and information update timeliness need to be confirmed first.
Define power targets together with functional requirements. Battery-life estimates must specify the battery, temperature, operating cycle, event frequency and network conditions. Keep estimates separate from continuous-operation test results.
Project Inputs
| Data category | Startup data |
|---|---|
| business work cycle | The conference room needs to display reservation status and support sign-in; provide typical usage procedures, sampling and upload times, target battery life, and response requirements. |
| Product interface and structure | Display, button or card reader, reservation system interface; for existing products, provide schematics, a bill of materials (BOM), firmware and prototypes. |
| Batteries and site conditions | Provide battery model, power supply range, cut-off voltage, temperature, installation method and communication conditions. |
| Delivery and Responsibility | Clarify the scope of source code and design files, platform docking, number of prototypes, test conditions and third-party work. |
Delivery and Acceptance
| Delivery project | Verification method |
|---|---|
| Design and implementation | Interface firmware, appointment synchronization protocol, interaction logic and offline status testing; the scope of hardware, source code and third-party components are clearly stated in the statement of work. |
| Functional verification | Synchronize the appointment summary and refresh according to business changes; wake up and send check-in events during interaction; record the input, output and recovery results of each status. |
| Power consumption verification | Content update timeliness, interactive wake-up, network disconnection behavior and reading peripheral energy consumption. Fix the battery side measurement point to record the energy from the full task cycle until the device returns to sleep. |
| Exceptions and retesting | Covers applicable situations such as low battery, continuous triggering, loss of connection or restart, and retains original logs, waveforms and versions. |

What content should be displayed on the house plate after the network is disconnected?+
The last valid content should be retained and the update time or connection status should be clearly stated to avoid treating expired reservations as real-time status; resynchronize according to version after recovery.
Is it possible to develop only part of an existing product?+
Module development or power consumption optimization can be carried out according to the existing interface and modifiable range. For this product, you first need to check the display, buttons or card readers, and reservation system interface, and then determine the scope of changes and regression.
How to determine the cost and period of this project?+
The evaluation is split based on deliverables such as interface firmware, appointment synchronization protocol, interaction logic and offline status testing; prototype materials, structure, platform, external tests and new functions are listed separately, and quotations and nodes are formed after the requirements and interfaces are confirmed.
