Today were the final presentations and exibithion in MediaLAB!
January started with a usability test of the app. We made a clickable prototype and let 7 people do 8 different tasks in the app accompanied by a story. The story helped them to put themselves in the possition of the EV driver.
The test led to several changes in the App. See the final app slides below.
The app was too green and there was too little contrast, henece the style was adjusted to less transparency and more full colour. Further was the red colour for buttons and interactive fields interpreted as danger by the users we showed the app to, hence we chose another complementary colour to green which is a warm yellow.
This spint was only 1,5 weks. We translated the 1.0 architecture into wireframes and then transferred the styleguide.
See the whole presentation sprint 5 here.
The user research results were transformed into a first app architecture. Because the pilot requires a more simple version of the app than an app that would work in comercial use, we decided to create an app version 2.0 and an app version 3.0. We first translated all user needs into an architecture draft for 3.0 and then created a minimum viable product for the pilot. The app for the pilot for examle does not need a network, because only 10 people will take part in it. In oder to be able to programm in steps we also divided 2.0 features and started to define all features for 1.0 which will be a realistic guess to programm untill Christmas. We started programming in Java Script, html and css.
According to the personas we desigened 4 different style moodboards for the app. We evaluated them with an online questionaire. Style 4 was liked the most but there were several adjustments to be done.
We created personas and used them as a tool to help design for our target group. The results of the co-creation session helped us to better define these personas!
The session is transcribed and analyzed, here is a link to the findings.
Co-creation session 30.10.2015
Yesterday we conducted a co-creation session with six EV drivers.
The session was 3,5 hours and involved 3 different parts.
The main research question was:
How do people percieve energy sharing through their ev and their house in different situations?
