About experience design
Experience design, a methodology that keeps the design evolution to solve the problem with user need in centre. Technically, its the solution to make people's interaction with complex systems. I would define it as a process to create easy interaction for a human to do their tasks using computers or machines.
User Experience Process
Keeping all the theories and standards aside, the simple process in my daily life starts with following steps:
- Research - paper reviews, competitive analysis, interviews, contextual inquiries, surveys etc
- Ideation - brainstorming, diverging and converging on ideas, customer journey, persona etc
- Wireframe - ideas, sketches, brainstorming, what worked and what didn’t, testing results, iterations
- Design - fleshed out design, test/feedback, iterations, final design
- Prototype - user testing, iteration, towards development (if you did)
After graduated as a software engineer, I chose design career with the concept of problem solution by design thinking. Early, I was intrigued by human-computer interaction and its development through the digital evolution era. We have seen the historical evolution of digital media from cinema to mobile leading to AR/VR.
