@connection76

Every time a protocolary change happen, Design as a discipline experience tectonic shifts.

@connection76

This talk will present case studies and tools to address topics in the following 4 areas.

Proportions DataIdentity Services

@connection76

As information flow beyond screens and onto information appliances, wearables and sensors, UX designs will be about Proportions.

How can we tune the amount of information to match the user’s attention?

@connection76

As everything becomes smart and always observing us in our environments, understanding Identity will be the key in gaining and retaining users’ loyalty.

How much personal information is enough to make an ecosystem ‘smart’? How much is too much?

@connection76

As user experience shifts from discrete sessions to distributed moments throughout the day, UX design will mean designing Services that flow across digital and physical surfaces.

What makes a multi-touchpoint service successful?

@connection76

As more and more contents are generated by sensors, Data will become a new material that designers will need to learn to work with.

What are the capabilities and limitations of designing with data?

In SXSW Interactive 2013, I gave a talk about “Why Designers Should Care About Measuring Success”: slidesha.re/13UkDBd

@connection76

Since then, I've been focusing on designing for the Internet of Things. In February 2013, I founded the San Francisco Internet of Things Meetup to build a community around this topic.

@connection76

After growing the community to 600+ members, inviting IoT leaders around the world to speak in our events and interviewing many people who are building the Internet of Things...

@connection76

I want to share what I discovered with You and start investigating what designing for the Internet of Things will mean to all of us.
