Visit Blind Agencies and show them my product - Week 17

 Week 17

Beta Test

This week, I visited them and there are 5 blind workers participating in my user test. The reason for doing this is to know if am I doing the things that are needed for them and comments for continued improvement.

This is the survey form and below are the user responses.

Rationale & Whole User Flow Videos
I shot the video clip for the rationale video and I am currently editing it. I also finished the shot for the user flow.

Here are some of the screenshot progress for the rationale video.









Future refinement for the device

After compiling the user feedback, I realized how crucial it is to make the device smaller for them, which was my first thought at the beginning of the week. In the future, I manage to reduce the size of this device and incorporate feedback from users.

In addition, the audio files are arranged in an absolute mess without labels. Besides, there are more steps for them to click the recording they want. Because they need to go to work every day, they always bring their essentials —white canes, work bags, wallets, and keys— along with them. None o
