Project Summary
Sentinel is an advanced surveillance interface designed for critical monitoring environments. The system emphasizes real-time feedback, visual clarity under stress, and an aesthetic that blends cinematic motion with operational utility.
Interface Goals
- Prioritize signal over noise
- Integrate layered camera feeds with status overlays
- Build in glitch logic and failure states to simulate compromised scenarios
Design Approach
Applied a modular grid, monochrome base palette, and ambient color indicators to reflect system integrity. Inspired by sci-fi UIs and real-time command systems, Sentinel leverages motion cues and hover states for operator clarity.
Key Features
- Live multi-cam interface with encryption breach indicators
- Dynamic status log panel with anomaly timestamps
- Grid view toggle, glitch mode, and reset utilities
- Fully responsive across screen types
Stack & Tools Used
- Figma (UI/UX prototyping)
- HTML5/CSS3 + JavaScript
- Custom GSAP for glitch animations
- WordPress (theme customization)
- PHP + ACF for structured content
Outcome
Sentinel now serves as a framework for experimental interface studies — used in simulation contexts and UX research on alert fatigue and spatial cognition.
