UX Design Challenges

As a weekly exercise, a user experience class activity prompted new design solutions to combat user experience issues in each technology. Explore this page to learn more!

Desing Challenge #one

PinPad Challenge

PinPad Challenge

PinPad Challenge

For this challenge, you will work with a PinPad design. Users added a sign to this PinPad, a workaround to a design issue. How can you fix the PinPad design to remove the need for this sign?

To optimize the process flow, consider the following enhancements for a seamless transaction experience:

  • Implement a confirmation screen post-scanning: "Is the amount correct?"
  • Direct customer engagement with the card reader for total amount confirmation.
  • Display subsequent prompts for users to assume correctness: "Please wait, system processing" or "Please wait to insert card."

Tap payment options are recommended for further convenience, but a machine upgrade would be required.

DESING CHALLENGE #Two

Optimize portability and digitize the design by downsizing overall dimensions and reducing space occupied by ads and ratings for improved maneuverability:

  • Modify colors and expressions of smiley icons for more apparent rating differentiation.
  • Simplify the system message by using fewer words.
  • Include English titles alongside the native language to broaden audience reach.

Consider utilizing fonts like Helvetica or Verdana for the title to enhance readability.

DESign CHALLENGE #Three

Which Way is Up Challenge

Which Way is Up Challenge

For this design challenge, we had free reign to select a real-life design issue to evaluate. I chose these elevator buttons and asked myself what is misleading about this design? And how can this design be improved?

The current elevator button set presents ambiguity, potentially causing user navigation challenges. To improve the user experience:

  • Design clear differentiation between up and down buttons, incorporating ample white space for clarity.
  • Consider inclusivity by adding Braille to aid users relying on accessibility tools.
  • Upon successful selection, enhance user feedback with illuminating and vibrating buttons, ensuring a clear indication of the chosen direction.

These modifications will provide a more user-friendly and inclusive elevator interface for a seamless and accessible experience.
