How might we create a more inclusive process to locate lost or misplaced objects in both private and public locations for people with low-vision?
The Problem
We interviewed 5 participants to better understand the painpoints, challenges, and strategies that people use when finding and locating a lost item.
Key Insights
Early Ideation
Based off our insights from in-depth-interviews, we created storyboards and wireframes to ideate possible solutions to address each scenario with specific pain-points.
UI Iterations
I led the effort to drive insight-based design iterations for the app's visual interface design. Our main challenge was creating a visual tone that was both accessible and elegant. With larger typeface sizes and high contrast, we strived to create straightforward and sophisticated user interactions.
Design Solution
An app paired with trackers that stick to everyday objects to help people with low-vision locate their items.
Features
Versatile trackers in different sizes that are flexible for all types of items.
Item notification for when items are out of a set location range for permanent spaces.
Haptic feedback & visual compass direction tools for locating items.
Spatial map provides users with the precise location of items at home.
Customizable app UI for users with varying vision accessibility needs.
