Problem Space

  • HP approached our design studio with a hardware prototype for a new form of computing that blended touch computing, 3D scanning and 3D printing.

  • I helped research, design, user test, prototype and deliver the main interface for the media creation suite, as well as a series of applications for HP to use at launch.

Process

  • Weekly design sprints, usually showing new work after 1-2 days for rapid prototyping.

  • Frequent user testing to see how users react to different gestures and animations while dragging, dropping and scanning.

  • Rapid prototyping with Javascript/Framer and an in-progress API (I gave feedback) to create the interface for a new desktop media creation suite.

Result

  • A new media creation suite with 3D scanning and printing capabilities, using your hands to create, rather than a keyboard and mouse.

Impact

  • Best of Show at CES 2015.
