Discoverijssel was a study project for the course Interface & Interaction design as part of my master’s programme Human Media Interaction. The goal of this project was to:
“Design a mobile, networked system that allows people with and with- out visual disabilities to share their stories, experiences, observations and questions of the landscape around them with others, while they are moving through the environment.”
This was defined by the course, together with the Dutch non-profit organisation Landschap Overijssel and was accompanied by a set of abstract, predefined requirements and constraints.
The project spanned a single iteration, consisting of six months of part-time design, which included task analysis, requirements gathering, interface design and evaluation. The full details of this process and its results can be found in the final report.
Video Prototype
To demonstrate the concept to potential users and gather feedback, a video prototype showing the application in its natural environment was made.
