DESCRIPTION
Solving large-scale, Industrial Internet problems has the potential of creating huge cost savings, new products, and market opportunities. However, beyond the technical challenges, understanding human motivations and values underpinned by the Internet of Things is difficult. As data collection and connectivity grow exponentially, the interface to remote storage, analytics and connected systems become an inflection point through which potential value is delivered to end users and equipment operators thus, increasing the importance and value of how we interact with connected hardware. Examples are shown of how the Industrial Internet of Things can unlock value propositions such as increased productivity, better analysis, and business intelligence by better understanding human motivation.TRANSCRIPT

UNDERSTANDING HUMAN MOTIVATION IN THE AGE OF CONNECTED MACHINES !

DON’T DESIGN OBJECTS, PREDICT EMOTIONS

IMMEDIATE CONVENIENCE
Mobile automated Payment.
A SIMPLE EXAMPLE, E-Z PASS
AGGREGATE BENEFITS
Ambient, anonymous sensors portray detailed traffic conditions.

“The introduction of E-ZPass reduced prematurity and low birth weight among mothers within 2km of a toll plaza by 10.8% and 11.8% respectively relative to mothers 2-10km from a toll plaza.” !

PARTICIPATORY SCREEN DESIGN AND WORKFLOW MODELING
USER GENERATED DASHBOARD
“We shouldn't have to go through a drop down that is 20 options long when our utility company only cares about 3 or 4 options. I want one button to get there. I don't want to go through multiple selections to do a task.”

Understanding the context of use is critical when approaching Industrial Internet problems. The domain can often be obscure, complicated and foreign to designers. Additional constraints and opportunities are revealed by observing and asking questing in-context.
CONTEXTUAL INQUIRY, UNDERSTANDING ENVIRONMENTAL CONTEXT

Modular organization requires multiple filters and table configurations to access relevant information, resulting in inefficient work flows across multiple screens.
Integrated Dashboard allows users to access pre-designed work pages, creating a seamless user experience.
OK BUT, WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE?

As the locations where we use connected products continues to diversify, the need to understand context becomes amplified. Clues are revealed by being with a user, seeing their environmental surroundings and constraints.
