MA Interaction Design Loughborough University (UK)

I enjoy enriching my life through new experiences and learning new things. I have great enthusiasm in what I do, and I like to design constantly. I am an emotional person who gets pleasure from well considered details like beautiful colours and well considered forms and textures. I love to observe and analyse people’s behaviours and emotions as it helps inspire my imagination together with exploring a user’s real needs. I encourage myself to take any opportunity to stimulate as well as improve myself. Additionally, I have courage and great perseverance; I challenge myself and try to make all-out effort. I expect myself to do meaningful things which include sharing happiness with people as it cannot only make myself better but also enrich others. Finally, I hope that my design could help me achieve the goal of bringing happiness and touch people’s heart.

Interaction Design


Be part of the culture AWARDS

Celebrating excellence in user experience

According to UKCISA, there were 436,585 international students coming to study in the UK between 2014 and 2015. One of the biggest reasons people chose to study abroad is to be immersed in an entirely new culture (VISTAWIDE, 2004). However, based on the previous user research, it is usually hard for international students to gain sufficient opportunities for in-depth cultural experiences. Therefore, the aim of this project is to help international students who live in the UK to feel belonging by being wholly or partially involved in the British culture by grasping the latest information about festivals, events or particular local level to be held in the UK and allow them to join in these activities with locals.



CONCEPT & VALUE PROPOSITION After considering the safety issues of such an idea, it was decided that University is a good place to start with the service. Moreover, taking Loughborough Students’ Union for example, their aim for the following year is to drive the UK’s best student experience especially improving their work with international students. Therefore, the service is set up to cooperate with Student Unions and help hold regular events according to the represented festivals and local events. Meanwhile, Students’ Unions will recruit their British students to be the volunteers and train them as local guides.

“It is great to have opportunities of being with locals, but I expect to have more in-depth cultural experiences.”

Value for International Students > To have a deeper understanding about British culture and get in-depth cultural experiences. > To get travel credits as awards by being cultural ambassadors of their countries.

“I am happy to share my culture with international students by inviting them to some festivals.”

Value for British (Local) Students

> To improve the CV by being a professional British cultural ambassador. > To get a discount price for joining some interesting festivals and local events. > To have a local guide when travelling to international students’ countries.

1. Tomoko has used the BPC website and chosen to follow some of the events like Christmas Party (17th December), which is coming in two weeks. Tomoko just received a new message from Students’ Union reminding her to book the event.

2. Tomoko followed the event booking instruction and found that she can arrange the activities by herself. Moreover, she felt interested in the second event, family Christmas experience, for celebrating Christmas with one of the volunteers’ families at their home on Christmas Eve. Tomoko decided to sign up for this event as well and waited for the later notification as it was a limited-number offer.

3. On the morning of the day, some volunteers and international students who chose to go for the ice skating met together at the university to take the coach.

4. They spent a whole morning ice skating and went back to the University or got off at the church cafe where the next activities were held at 13:00 with enjoying a free lunch, a sandwich, on the coach.

7. At dinner time, international students were introduced the background stories of celebrating Christmas and some relative custom. Additionally, all international students and volunteers sang the Christmas songs, had Christmas crackers and ate the tranditional Christmas meal, including the pudding they made earlier, together in the church cafe.

8. Fortunately, After the Christmas party event, Tomoko also got the invitation from one of the volunteers’ families. She was pretty looking forward to the upcoming experience!

Autonomous Driving In Partnership with Jaguar Land Rover

We cannot predict the future but we can be prepared (MIKE WRIGHT, EXECUTIVE

DIRECTOR, JAGUAR LANDROVER).

Full autonomous vehicles are something that we will expect to see as mainstream on roads by 2030. During the next twenty years, there will be significant research and development advancement into how this will look and feel. Using today’s users we are able to test and understand what future users would want from their vehicles and what expectations they will have in 2030.

Cooperation I contributed to each of the research and analysis stage; mainly focused on the concept development and interface design of dashboard and centre control screen. View the detailed version at: https://issuu.com/jessie711/docs/booklet__ďŹ nal_group3_ver2

Semi - structured group discussions with our target user age group

Eight interviews conducted with both target group and expert researchers within the field autonomous vehicles

Hunt Statement Based on preliminary research, the overarching theme of is TRUST most important and critical consideration to carry forward. By focusing on trust we can design the L3 (Limited self-driving automation)-L4 (Full self-driving automation) environment to feel safe and humanise the overall experience for the user.

By conducting interviews with participants in their 20’s; to ask today’s target group age (generation Z) how they feel about autonomous cars, based on the reasoning that they will be the 35 year old demographic by the start of 2030. By doing an interview with one of the expert, we had deeper understanding of Situation Awareness (SA) and began to think about the levels of trust.

DATA ANALYSIS AFFINITY MAPPING

This process of data analysis was helpful in us understanding where the patterns were in our future forecasting. By identifying similar needs and equally concerns we could map out a strategy to help us understand where the best areas for concept generation would be.

> > > >

> > > >

INSIGHT

Humans are bad passive monitors In L3 (Limited self-driving automation) - You are taking the primary control away from the human Keeping the driver aware is one of the main challenges Users are discouraged in systems too technical, they want to take control back as that feels more familiar

OPPORTUNITY

To design a system which communicates clearly and quickly trust and security To ensure the system is ahead of and more intuitive than the user The driver needs to see only critical information, leave out the rest Use heuristic principles to help users feel more familiar with real world objects, to enable feelings of control

In 2030, L4 capabilities will be in most cars. As we learned from JLR, they are trialling an autonomous L4 car using a designated autonomous lane. It was safe to assume that an autonomous lane will be in place in L4 vehicles by 2030. We devised a scenario whereby the driver of an L3-L4 vehicle can move in and out of the autonomous lane. 1. Change from manual mode to autonomous driving

2. Communication process with other autonomous cars, when driving next the anto lane

3. Change from autonomous lane back to the manul lane

4. Drive in manual lane

The use of a physical button helps the driver feel more connected and in control of the vehicle.

The introduction of a handshake - a communication between two vehicles much like a computer system is needed.

There needs to be a handshake principle again and also a level of security.

Once a driver is back within the manual lane, there will be a take-over-request, needed so the driver is fully aware of the current situation.

CONCEPT AUTO/ MANUAL TRANSITION The cabin environment will utiles UI information and will has a physical button for the driver to change modes (transit manual and autonomous driving). There are three interfaces which the driver will interact with. First, the main screen “touch screen� as centre control interface of the car, second the dashboard, third, a physical button.

After setting, the shortest route is suggested and includes driving in an autonomous lane. The screens are in a clear line of sight for the driver (Design Principle: Visibility).

From user research, being able to take back control at any given stage is key to feeling safe in an auto vehicle. There are two ways to change to manual mode: grabing the steering wheel in a proper strength or pressing the physical button. (Design Principle: Affordance)

Hands are detected on steering wheel

The scope of this project could be very big and by identifying our own limitations early on in this process, helped us have our own set of guidelines to stay within. We have identified our ‘next steps’ to this project; to test our concept in real terms by proposing to user test in a car, using an ipad for the UI, and to develop our scenario further, looking at where there is scope to address some of the aforementioned considerations of ‘what if this happens, how would the car respond to this?’

USER RESEARCH

Hsuan-Hsiou(32), Keela(6) Taiwan, Taiwan & British Self-employed, Student

Debra Lilley, Florence(5) British & British Senior Lecturer, Student

Description Both participants believe brushing teeth for children is a major way to prevent decayed teeth. Hsiou’s used some ways like singing songs to make her child willing to be brushed. Debra usually makes her child brush by herself first and then help check by smelling her teeth. Both participants praise their children if they have good behaviors of brushing teeth. They found pain points during the brushing time and checking process.

Task Goals > Brush children’s teeth more easily by seeing the teeth inside clearly. > Check children’s teeth in a much easier way after they brush by themselves. > Have an app with functions like telling stories, singing songs relative to brushing, and giving rewards, which could make brushing time more interesting and their children would enjoy.

Experience Goals > > > >

Feel relaxed and in control when brushing children’s teeth. Make their children enjoy and feel interested during the brushing time. Make their children feel confident about brushing their own teeth. Feel easy when checking whether their children’s teeth are clean, healthy or not.

STORYBOARD CONCEPT STATEMENT

2

1

Keela is not willing to brush her teeth.

4

With the music played by the app, Keela enjoys brushing time more, and gets an idea of how long she should brush.

3

Daisy decides to look for a way of enhancing the brushing experience, and she finds out Tooth Care app which could be used with a sensor connecting to the toothbrush.

Daisy comes to help, while she has no idea of making Keela enjoy brushing time, and she also wonders how to make sure Keela’s teeth are truly clean.

5

6

Simultaneously, Daisy thinks it is easier to ensure whether Keela’s teeth are truly clean through the current state of teeth shown on the screen.

When finishing brushing, because of Keela’s good cooperation, Daisy gives her an electric sticker. After collecting a few stickers, Keela decides to exchange for a bigger reward, a doll, which she has looked forward for a long time.

7 According to user research, the product has been identified as a sensor installed on a toothbrush connected with an app. After using the app, Daisy feels more relaxed and relieved about helping Keela keep healthy teeth, and Keela feels more interested during the whole process.

The application allows users to easily ensure whether children’s teeth are truly clean, and grasp an idea of the health state of children’s teeth through recorded data. Once a decayed tooth is detected by the sensor, the app would ask to book a good dentist nearby. Whilst playing songs and story sections relative to the time taken for brushing teeth and the collection of electronic stickers, the application also enhances the brushing experience by creating an interesting atmosphere during the brushing time. Finally, this application offers useful information about tooth are to help uers feel relieved.

TESTING & IMPROVEMENT

AM

I got the suggestion of trying to emphasize the technology of the sensor is safe, and I thought adding this message in the introduction would be suitable. The participant suggested giving specific characters to plaque and food debris to attract kids’ attention and make them more aware of what they are. Therefore, I designed two characters and considered how they might look. For example, I designed Mr. Debris as a chocolatet chip cookie, whilst also combining visual elements of a hamburger, highlighted by the characters teeth. As for Miss Plaque, I tried to show the sticky nature of plaque and how it can spread all over the mouth, so the shape of her character is more like a snail crawling along the ground.

AM

AM

The participant also recommended me to add some funny sounds to give specific feedback if kids do something right or miss something. As a result, I would like to add some animations and funny sound effects to the specific characters to give kids some reminders.

AM

AM

The participant suggested for me to change the idea of printing real stickers to collecting stickers and exchanging them for a bigger reward, so kids could count how many stickers they still need and try to behave well. In accordance with the feedback, I started to redesign this section. To make the application more interactive I added a distinct operating function. The user can drag the stickers into a rewards menu and view how many they have collected. From this menu the user can drag the stickers into a gift box and exchange for a present.

Another suggestion was to have some of the songs and story sections locked as an incentive for good behaviour. I have marked this function in the site map. The length of each song or story section is suggested to equal the appropriate brushing time as this would help teach the kids how long they should be brushing for. Therefore, I redesigned it by adding a time bar to not only show the progress of the song but also to give kids a clear idea of the remaining time to brush.

Young People's Food Purchasing assistant Design for Behaviour Change The amount of calories in the average shopping basket in the UK increased gradually between 2006 and 2014 (Rayner, 2015). Moreover, the diet related ill health has been expected to cost the NHS £5.8 billion per year, which is more than smoking, alcohol, or physical inactivity. Therefore, this project explores the food purchasing habits of young people (18-25 years old) and their considerations when picking food. The aim is to encourage young people to buy a reduced amount of ‘less healthy’ food by proposing an interaction design solution.

The definition of ‘less healthy’ food was captured by calculating the number of points for both ‘negative’ and ‘positive’ nutrients of any given food product, base on the formula provided by the UK Ofcom Nutrient Profiling Model (Rayner et al., 2009). A food and drink are classified as ‘less healthy’ where they score 4 points or more and 1 point or more respectively.

Considering which kinds of loaf to buy, and she bought a cheap one made by Tesco because it should be a best deal

Back to buy the ice cream Considering which taste to buy by taking them out to have a clearer look

Finding an attractive pizza without expectation, and deciding to buy one to have a try at last

USER RESEARCH INTERVIEW & AFFINITY MAPPING

Key Issues Identified > The crucial motivation of buying food for young purchasers is the good taste. > The feelings of buying ‘less healthy’ food are complicated, which include excited, worried (health issues; other’s views), and guilty.

> Not all of the participants had the true awareness of how much ‘less health’ food they bought. > Some participants considered the amount of ‘less healthy’ food they bought to be fine, and it would not cause a negative influence on their health.

> Most of the participants believe others’ continually reminding them could help them improve their purchasing behaviours.

36


CONCEPT PROPOSAL & SCENARIO

Behaviour Change Strategies

Design Opportunities > Assisting participants to understand the negative impact on health when buying ‘less healthy’ food > Helping participants have proper awareness of how much ‘less healthy’ food they bought > Assisting participants to control the amount of ‘less healthy’ food when shopping

> Emphasizing or visualizing the loss of health by

providing immediate and ongoing feedback when buying ‘less healthy’ food > Calling attention to relevant social norms such as giving purchasers feedback about how much more ‘less healthy’ food they bought than other purchasers

This is a shopping assistant for use in supermarkets. The device is designed to clip on the shopping basket or trolley, and the sensor on the device could detect the barcode of food and then distinguish the food to ‘healthy’ and ‘less healthy’ on the screen, based on the formula from the UK Ofcom Nutrient Profiling Model. The immediate feedback of the loss of health and calling attention to social norms are recognized as good strategies to help change behaviours, the device is expected to be effective on helping young purchasers buy a reduce amount of ‘less healthy’ food.

1. Samantha feels guilty when purchasing ‘less healthy’ food, while it is still pretty difficult for her to control her desires.

2.

3. Due to a dislike for the ‘loss’ of health and behaving in ways against social norms, Samantha tries to reduce her purchasing amount of ‘less healthy’ food.

healthy’ food in the average shopping basket has increased sharply in recent years, supermarkets are asked to help improve the situation.

37

4. Samantha finds happiness when obtaining immediate positive feedback. Moreover, she feels proud and excited when understanding she can overcome her desires and become healthier.

Memory Tour Service Design In Partnership with Love Loughborough

Historically the Loughborough town is associated with the world’s famous bell foundry, its steam railway, textile manufacturing history and ‘Ladybird’ books. Nevertheless, nowadays Loughborough is often only recognized for its University. Therefore, the aim of this project is to benefit Loughborough economically and socially from increased tourism. The design proposal is to encourage alumni to visit Loughborough town centre as a tourist attraction with a service design solution. Cooperation I contributed to each of the research and analysis stage; mainly focused on the concept development, scenario simulations, and the build of persona and user journey map.

Secret Base There is a child living in everyone’s mind (Saint-Exupery, 2009), even though the childlike innocence of everyone is to some extent. With the childlike innocence, people might like to do things with more freedom and security or be easily attracted by things which can make a good connection with the happy memory or an interesting experience in our childhood. When we were children, we might love to have our own base and stay there because we could feel comfortable and safe in that area. Through the memory, do you start to miss your secret base?

PARADISE size(mm):1500(ÎŚ)*1450(H)


MARKET & USER RESEARCH

There are some kinds of "kidult furniture" in the market which are valuable to refer. In order to extract the attractive factors of kidult furniture and realize the needs of consumers, three male and three female participations were invited to conduct the interviews according to Evaluation Grid Method, which could help experimenters understand the personal cognition of participants and catch attractive factors of objects. During the interviews, the participants were asked to describe the features, concrete

59


ANALYSIS

Participant A's classified Evaluation Grid Chart

The result of Evaluation Grid Charts - Shape

After making each participant’s Evaluation Grid Chart, KJ method was used to combine similar ideas. The features of kidult furniture were then separated to four categories, "shape", "material", "multifunction" and "interaction". Additionally, in order to make the result more representative, the most frequently mentioned abstract feelings were extracted to have more discussions. Take shape category for example, one of the feature in this category is that its shape is like a cocoon chair or can be imagined to be similar to a hug, which is like curling in a mother's arms. This image would also affect people’s feelings and make them feel warm and attached to the furniture. Furthermore, the warm shades would also make these feelings stronger and provide comfort and safety for the users. As for the details, this kind of furniture also uses the short sutures, thick cushion, short and rounded legs or even on the ground directly. These details would make people think they are lovely and they can feel closer to the furniture. With these ideas in mind, the direction of this design project becomes clearer.

THINKING PROCESS The concept of cocoon chair

Reading in bed

Hiding in secret base

Peeping through the hole

According to the user research, people with childlike innocence might be eager to get the security and freedom, which inspired me to design a secret base, a paradise. Namely, people could do everything there without being bothered or blamed by others. They can be themselves, just like a child without worrying too much about others’ judgements. It is a paradise for really releasing the stress and feeling relaxed. One of the other great thing is that it is available to peep others through the gap in the secret place, and no one would find out.

The concept of treasure box

The idea of rocking chair

Thinking what people would do on this chair (reading)

In addition, if you feel free today and would like to contact with others more, you could adjust the size of the gap to make the space more open. Simultaneously, more light can go into your space and warm you up. Overall, this base can satisfy your needs.

Adjust the size of the gap to control how open the space is. When the user lie backward, the chair will start to rock.

Nature Catcher Instructor

How to cultivate children’s interest of exploring nature and make them learn the knowledge of creatures by themselves efficiently is the key issue in this project. With this idea in mind, I tried to design a camera which combines the system of Google Goggles to assist the exploring and learning process. size(mm):110(L)*50(W)*80(H)



BACKGROUND THE REASON OF DOING THIS PROJECT

Comparing to learning the knowledge of creatures from textbooks, learning in the nature directly is a better way.

Using tools to observe creatures more clearly

Taking photos of creatures to have a record

Getting knowledge of creatures from teachers

Teachers who taught science in elementary schools in Taiwan found that even though they had taught students knowledge of creatures from the textbooks in science classes, it was still hard to make students know the creatures. In addition, learning the creatures only from textbooks would hardly inspire students’ interests. However, if teachers could change their teaching methods to spending more time on taking students going outside to make them learn in the nature directly, the situation could be improved dramatically (Huang et al., 2010). According to one of the investigations, around 70.2 percent of students feel excited and curious when they go to a field trip to learn about the nature; moreover, they believe this kind of lesson would be helpful for them (Li, 2012). When taking this kind of lesson, students prefer to use some tools, such as magnifier and telescope to assist themselves to observe the creatures more clearly. Sometimes, they would also take some photos of the creatures to have a record, and this behavior would facilitate to review the lesson and deepen their impression of the creatures. With tools to observe and record the creatures in the nature directly and then learning relative knowledge from teachers are effective. However if students want to learn about the nature outside of the class, it is diffucult for them to learn by themselves efficiently. Therefore, this design project focuses on this point and proposes a good solution. Huang, G.-H., Lee, L.-M., Wang, H.-Y., Hong, P.-J., Wu, J.-R., & Lai, N.-L. (2010). The effectiveness analysis of ubiquitous learning system Li, Y.-R. (2012). 70 percent of teenagers seldom have outdoor activities, United Daily News.

THINKING PROCESS FUNCTION How could students learn the knowledge of creatures by themselves effectively?

LEARN IN NATURE DIRECTLY

GET RELATIVE INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET

However , how to make this kind of learning process be more efficient? Combining the two ideas together, which are learning in nature directly as well as getting relative information on the internet, would improve the efficiency of learning process. Thus, this project apply the system of “Google Goggles”. Google Goggles is a system which has the function of image recognition, and can connect to the database to search the relative information automatically. In order to ensure students could find the accurate and useful information, the database is better to be provided and filtered by the national museum of natural science. To conclude, with the device designed by this project, students would be able to learn the knowledge of creatures by themselves more efficiently.

MARKET ANALYSIS FORM

After collecting and analyzing the data, I found that the form with organic lines, round corners or just changing a little bit of the aspect ratio to chunky type would make users feel adorable. As for the color, both of the vivid tone and pink tone can be accepted; besides, the use of rich colors with appropriate proportion in children’s camera design would also be attractive. In addition, adding the image of cartoon character or combining the idea of children’s toys such as Lego and handheld game console could also attract children at first sight. Therefore, in this design project, I would design a new series of children’s camera, Nature Catcher, basing on the analysis above.

69


THINKING PROCESS FORM After the lateral thinking of the fom of children’s camera, I chose three categories to have deeper vertical development.

Try to adjust the aspect ratio of the camera, or change the positions of buttons, or just add some patterns on it to make the camera be more attractive.

70


THINKING PROCESS FORM

Make the form become rounder and plumper, and think different kinds of way to present the camera lens to make the form be similar to a cute bear.

Make the lanyard be easier to use, but still keep the image of raccoon’s tail.

Change the forms and positions of buttons to find a suitable layout.

Make the form become rounder and plumper, and try to add patterns.

71


MOCK-UP MAKING

Completing three hand-made models Using the fret saw machine to cut the shape roughly

Using sandpapers to modify the shape

Using CNC to make exquisite models

Making models to ensure that whether the camera is comfortable to use and the positions of buttons are easy to press. Moreover, these models would be used for interviewing children to test the preferences of the target users. Since it is hard for children to imagine the 3D form of the camera by looking at the pictures only, these models could help children to have more clear ideas of the camera entity.

72


MARKET INVESTIGATION

In this investigation, I prepared the picture of cameras and the models to interview 30 children who are around 9 years old to catch the idea of that which type of the camera would attract children more. The result of the investigation shows that about 60 percent of children think the one has the image of bear is the cutest, and they like this most. Besides, there are approximately 20 percent of children like the one with the image of raccoon, and this is the second high proportion. As for the one with the stripe pattern, around 10 percent of children like this, while surprisingly, children who chose this tend to have more ideas. They could talk more about the reasons of choosing this. For example, one of the children says that he feels the stripe pattern like wings and could make him feel free, and another children says that she likes the gap between high and low, which gives her the sense of multi-level.

Air Purifier With A Dehumidifier People sometimes would like to grow some plants at their home not only because it is good to look, but also because that some plants could purify the air. Cooperation I contributed to each of the research and analysis stage; mainly focused on the concept development and modeling design.

size(mm):1060(L)*325(W)*425(H)


MARKET RESEARCH

In the market, we can see some similiar products which could also constitute a inner eco-cycle. However, in our design, we hope to put more emphasis on giving more benifits to our interior space, and try to use a natural way. For example, some plants can absorb some harmful gases in the air, and we would value this feature to make them become a purifier. In addition, we would also use automatic watering system to make planting become a simpler matter.

THINKING PROCESS

Wet Weather

Thinking what kind of things people would need in planting Air Pollution

Want to grow some plants

We hope to combine three ideas together which are including dehumidification, purifying air, and growing some plants to make our interior space become greener. Because we want to purify air by the plants, we need to search a lot of information to ensure what kinds of plants have this function and what types of harmful gases they absorb. Moreover, this system could also constitute a cycle of water and air. The water which plants need is supplied by the dehumidifier, and the harmful gases in the air will be absorbed by the plants. This system make us have a dry and clean surrounding.

Considering to use a automatic water system

Thinking where to put this device, and one of the idea is being a side table in the living room

The concept of this is to put it in front of the French window

79


THINKING PROCESS

Thinking what other functions could be added to this design project ( if a owner does not want to grow so many plants)

Dehumidifier with wheels would be easy to move

Try to use the space more effectively

After developing these two forms, I believed the form of this device should be more streamlined and attractive, so I continued to have some lateral developments.

80


THINKING PROCESS

Consider where to put this device (e.g. in front of a french window)

Try to make the form of this device become more holistic

Think the form of the container and dehumidifier

81


FEATURE

In this device, the dehumidifier can be detached to any place at home to extract water from the conditioned air. The collected water would be stored in the tank, and when the dehumidifier is attached to the main device, the valve would be opened automatically, and water would flow into the sink below the pots. In addition, the water sink and the pots are connected with cotton ropes, so that the water is slowly transmitted to the pot through the ropes and supplied for plants.

Make the dehumidifier back to attach to the main device, and then the irrigation system would be switched on automatically

Preparing Fruit for Ourselves

Fruit is good for humans’ health, and according to the suggestions from doctors , it is better to eat fruit everyday. Nowadays, people are busy on their business, so they might think it is troublesome to prepare fruit by themselves. However, it is hard to ensure the quality of ready to eat fruit boxes. Therefore, in this project, we tried to design a tool to make the process of preparing and eating fruit be easier. Cooperation I contributed to each of the research and concept development stage.


CONCEPT

Finally, we design a transformable chopping board which can be used as an ordinary chopping board to cut fruit when unfolded, and after cutting fruit, the board can be folded as a fruit bowl. In addition, if users want to take the fruit out, they can close the lid and the embedded magnets will stick together. Therefore, the transformable chopping board will turn into a storage container.
