New Friendly Interfaces
Starting point
•Digital interfaces are driven by performance and cost. The induced complexity and expression does not match our daily expectations.
•Most of the digital interfaces ignore the physical world.
•Elderly people keep a relation with the digital world centered more on the tools than on their impact.
•Sustainable gap between generations.
Project 1: You, Me and Everyone We know
!A screen based case study A strong impact in our social structure An inter generational issue A potential answer to senior needs
!Research Strategy
!Initial research by EPFL+ECAL Lab
!Helen Hamlyn Center (Peter Ziegler) • Field Research / 41 Interviews • Co-creation Workshops • RCA Visual communication workshop • 3 New Social Network Scenarios Complementary Scenarios by EPFL+ECAL Lab Team
!Demonstrators & tests
!Principes !!3 barrières essetielles •Capacité •Confiance •Conviction
!Output
!Better understanding of our relation to digital interfaces Role of design in new inclusive interfaces Propositions and tests

Project 2: Lazy Bytes
Cultural and social issues A physical device in our daily relation to the digital world In the middle of the living room Since 1951: a pack of functions on a plastic block, not a valuable object
!A new industrial and commercial context Companion apps take care of the complex functionalities Battle for the living room Invisible services need to be tangible
!Design strategy
!Get out of the box Focus on induced stress Open, but not naive exploration Diversity of approach and views

!Room for improvement !
!Results
!!63 Projects 5 Functional models 4 Registered models, 5 patents User Testing New principles for digital interfaces design World Tour: London, NYC, San Francisco, Paris, Lausanne
!User Testing – Large choice !!!!!!!!•No participant want to keep their own remote control
•¾ of participants would take the new remote control
•¼ want to have more detailed information first !
!Specific study !!!!!Multi-sense
!•Relation to the object
•Personalization
•Strong cultural references / material
•Feeling of reliability
!«Touch, Speak, Walk»David Bellisario – RCA
Personal relation Multiple senses combination Simplicity Perception of reliability
!High Potential«Galeo»Raphaël Dutoit - ECAL
!Tactile feeling Shape and cultural references Gesture and simplicity
!
Some Global Results
!•There is a strong need to reconnect the digital and physical world.
!•Many wrong ideas about our relation to the digital world. We need to understand better what is driving our perception.
!•Digital tools are still conceived through a modernist (rational) approach. The revolution done in the 70’s for product design still need to happen in the digital world.

IP & Industrial Partnership: need for a new model
!Shared IP seems good, but don’t work in practice New model can increase -The income for the school -The budget for the project -The impact for the students -The impact for the partner through time to market issue
!For academic partnerships, we try to improve the impact for a large number of students rather thansecuring the hypothetic benefit of one project.
