On Friday everyone presented the development of their concept up to date. For me, it was a crazy 3 weeks of preparing for the Something in the Air exhibition and squeezing in some MP work in the last few days before the Friday presentation. I eventually got everything done and presented a good deck.

I went through the insights driving my project to give a background to why I'm designing what I'm designing.
It can be quite difficult to make people understand that this is.. That you can’t park a car up on the pavement. Environmental changes and obstacles are sometimes difficult to avoid.. It’s not just for the visually impaired, to make sure that the area is safe. Accessibility should be universal.
And then I took everyone through what I have been doing up to date (the user testing, researching, decision making) and also the things that I am planning to do next.

For the presentation I did very lo-fi wireframes of the 2 versions of the apps for the visually impaired user and the mapping user and that is one thing I need to keep working on.

The drafts of our design rationales are due in a few days and that will have to take priority. Once that is submitted, these are the things that I will have to work on:

  • wireframes of the apps to turn into a clickable prototype for the exhibition
  • language of the navigation
  • a promo video
  • creating the physical experience of using the app at the exhibition
Less that 3 weeks left to go!
