THE  INVISIBLE  UXa  love  story  of  connected  sensors

&  giving  your  users  super  powers

Monday, May 20, 13Make Super Powers - take it away and the users felt powerless

It costs $0.5 to put a web server into anything. What will UX be like in an Internet of Things world? Will interfaces be built into these devices or will they defer to input devices that you already have.

Adafruit sensor pack= $35combined with micro processors like Arduino and you can have an internet connected sensor for under $50.

Most  smartphones/tabletstoday  have:

Now with GPS + Accelerometer sensors in the phone they can tell when you walking, bike and traveling by auto.

14s before the Earthquake in Japan all trains and factories in the area came to a halt... autonomously 

Example of sensor smart UX:It’s currently 72 degrees in here. For every one person, in this room, with the doors closed, it raises the temperature by .25 a degree. That means that 32 people in this room with change the temperature to [x]. The thermostat is set to cool to 70 degrees. What it doesn’t know is that this meeting is on the calendar for only 5 more minutes and that most people will be leaving to go drink beer.

The room also didn't know we where coming

MIT’s The Copenhagen Wheel measures pollution levels throughout the users ride and relays that data to the city as well as it can recommend healthier alternative routes

What  is  the  role  of  UX  with  sensors  &  data?

Sensors  +  Data  =  Actions/Insights

1)  What  do  you  want  me  to  take  away2)  What  do  you  want  me  to  do3)  How  do  you  feel?          -­‐  excited          -­‐  paranoid          -­‐  angry          -­‐  overwhelmed
