ETCA Central Computer
Enjoy a smarter, more sustainable way to compute!
An energy-efficient centralized computing system for households
In every four family member households, there are about 22 tech devices, with individuals owning 1-4 portable electronics.
The project targets a single-family household with at least two children, unifying the devices into one central computer.
The goal is to design a centralized computing system that provides the power for all computing needs in each household, eliminating the need for redundant devices and their carbon footprint.

The metallic finishes emphasize the luxurious feel of the product.
This scale model demonstrates how the cover is opened and how the internal components are interchangeable. It helps to understand the surface design of the product and how users interact with it.
ETCA revolutionizes household technology by consolidating multiple devices into one efficient system. With a 30% reduction in energy consumption and a 50% decrease in electronic waste, it significantly lowers carbon footprint by 25%.
Three main internal components for the computer to run (motherboards, CPU, GPU, RAM) are connected through the surface attached to the upper part of the hollow space.
LED light strips running along the edge include a UI/UX feature that controls the brightness of lights like it is breathing.
