CHALLENGE
Make the stressful experience of connecting to an audio visual system better
MY ROLE
User Research - Idea Generation - Form Factor Design - Prototyping - Testing - Storyboard - Final Presentation
USER RESEARCH
We observed and spoke to people presenting in varied situations and found a large common set of problems
FINDINGS FROM USER RESEARCH
KEY INSIGHT
The presentation begins as soon as the audience is aware of the presenter. This makes for a stressful set up.
PROBLEM REDEFINED
How might we move stress earlier and out of sight of the audience, and thus give control and confidence back to the presenter?
IDEATION + ITERATION
FINAL PROTOTYPE
'Kairos', in Greek, is the opportune moment
To enable a stress-free set up, we designed a system which:
connects a presenter to WiFi early
lets them arrange their presentation at their own convenience
provides a recognizable podium that connects automatically on walk-in
