Needs Validation Prototypes
The next step in our speed dating process was to create scenarios and low fidelity prototypes for our chosen concepts. We split into smaller teams to think through each of the 4 concepts. We created a template on which to create our prototypes. The objective of each prototype was to illustrate the information structure of […]
50 timeline ideas
We chose speed dating as our design process because of the quick turn around for the first deliverable. To start, we brainstormed 50 ideas to visualize the timeline for the Desert RATS mobile device. Some of the concepts were more “timeline”-esque than others, but they all aimed to communicate the plan as described by sequenced […]
Ecology of Tools
After doing some design scoping, we decided we wanted to create a “Mobile Execution Centric Plan Viewer” (name is temporary). We drew the following diagram to illustrate the different planning and execution tools at play including how our tool might integrate with them. One major goal of our design is to consolidate execution tools and […]
Narrowing Design Scope
Individual brainstorm After brainstorming sketches individually, we came together as a group to discuss and share our ideas. With each sketch, we noted features and design concepts from each sketch on a sticky. Analogous design activity As a next step in the design process, we came up with analogous scenarios to prime our brains to […]
Initial Brainstorming
During the travel/moving break, each of us sketched and explored possible concepts individually. We wanted to make sure we each did some grounded, reasonable sketches, but also pushed each other to break out of the box and explore some radical departure. We also wanted to make sure that some sketches were geared toward the initial […]
What if your food knew when you should stop?
This video was an effort between myself and a fellow classmate, Lily Li, for a Vision Video Assignment for the Making Things Interactive class. After a lengthy brainstorm of “What if…” questions, we decided to pursue the idea: “What if your food knew when you should stop?” This concept is interesting to me for a […]
The SNOOZE LEVER
The SNOOZE LEVER creates a tangible interaction for the alarm clock snooze function that solves many of the problems surrounding the ubiquitous snooze button interaction.
