Spring 2013<\/p>\n
Advanced Design in Spring 2013 will be a practicum, in collaboration with biomedical engineering department of Rutgers University.
\nThroughout this course, design students will work on a research project to build a mobile game\/ application which will be used to monitor kids at early ages for detecting autism and some other neuro-developmental abnormalities. As previously discussed in interaction design classes, these new digital artifacts and gadgets are equipped with a wide range of sensor set, that they can sense human body and its reactions. Designers\u2019 challenge here is not only creating an attractive, fun and friendly interface but also trying to reduce the noise in the data set by iterating the interaction design with the user feedback.<\/p>\n
Design crew will specifically work on:
\n\u2023 visual identity for the project
\n\u2023 designing the keyframes and animations \u2023 improvement biometric space around
\n\u2023 reducing the data noise
\n\u2023 producing printed and video tutorial sets
\nThis game like application will hep to establish a foundation to systematically answer questions about the developmental trajectories and genetic influences that characterize autism spectrum disorder, and, ultimately, apply these answers toward cost-effective platforms that enable early-stage intervention and improve quality of care.
\nWorking on this project will improve designers\u2019 skills on:
\n\u2023 interdisciplinary research \u2023 teamwork
\n\u2023 game design
\n\u2023 user interface design
\n\u2023 interaction design
\nMost importantly, students will have the chance to help an healthcare project which can dramatically reduce the costs of these kind of detection practices and make it available to economically or geographically challenged communities.
