A standard catalogue model: the dimensions, control package and finish are fixed, which is what keeps the price and the lead time predictable. Size, colour and interface language can be adapted without a new design cycle.

01 / Overview

The food chain demonstrates the relationship between predation and predation among organisms, and there are several food chains in an ecosystem. By identifying the correct food chain in an ecosystem, we can distinguish the role that animals play in the ecosystem.

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / The science behind it

The scientific principle of the food chain is the embodiment of energy flow and material cycling in ecosystems. Producers convert solar energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis and store it in organic matter. Consumers obtain energy from producers or other consumers through feeding, but the energy gradually decreases during the transmission process, usually only 10% -20% of the energy can be transmitted from one trophic level to the next. This is because organisms consume a large amount of energy during life activities such as respiration. At the same time, substances circulate in the food chain, and the substances in organisms are returned to the environment by decomposers for producers to reuse, thereby maintaining the stability of the ecosystem.

04 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
