Week 3 – The user-centred approach and prototyping

Weekly Task: You have recently been hired as a user experience designer for a new product: The product is planned to launch with augmented reality (AR) feature for indoor “wayfinding” inside large buildings and on company or educational campuses. The feature is meant to augment or replace traditional internal signage and assist people in finding their way inside buildings they are unfamiliar with.

Main interface:

  1. This is the interface I’ve set up. The main interface has a registration feature, allowing users to create private accounts or sign in.”

Home Page:

  1. On this Home page, there is a VR navigation feature. Users can choose between buildings or campuses, and I also want to add an icon for hospitals. This is for the system to accurately determine the location and where the user wants to go.
  2. Users can input the desired address either by voice or by typing. The address input has a location feature that can determine the current location based on GPS.
  3. The central part displays a 3D interior view of the building to inform users of their current location and where they want to go, specifying the floor and location.
  4. At the bottom, there’s an AR feature where users can activate their cameras. Based on the terrain, a 3D character provides voice or text directions.

Recent Page:

  1. In this ‘Recent’ page, the main purpose is to provide users with a history of their search locations. This allows users to directly use this record the next time they use the system, eliminating the need to re-enter the address. Additionally, based on the user’s current location, suggestions are provided to help users quickly find their desired destination.

User Page:

In this ‘User’ page mainly aims to allow users to customize their own account. Features inside include:

  1. setting a profile picture,
  2. changing the password
  3. Select navigation voices such as a female or male voice, a cartoon character and a favourite start voice, etc.
  4. Users can also choose a character from their favourite celebrities or teams.
  5. There’s a ‘define community’ section where users can support certain groups like the LGBTQ community, feminist community, environmental protection community, etc. This is designed so users can add related elements when customising their characters.
  6. Styles can be chosen from rock, student, cartoon, or professional styles.
  7. This also includes religious elements for users who wish to add related elements.
  8. Additionally, the character’s appearance and clothing can all be customized.”

Setting:

In the ‘Setting’ section, users can configure some fixed options such as:

  1. country
  2. language
  3. interface color.
  4. There’s also a feature to set emergency contact details options related to system location.
  5. A section for frequently asked questions and a smart customer service system.
  6. Users can also upload feedback, file complaints about the software, and even delete their accounts.
  7. All these features are provided to give users freedom when using this software.
  8. Additionally, there’s an option to send emergency messages to notify specific contacts of one’s exact location. This feature is designed for assistance in cases of fires or other emergencies.
