Streamlining Interacoustics’ new interface
Interacoustics wanted to develop an intuitive user interface for their new VisualEyes™ software, which is used by audiologists for balance assessment. They commissioned design-people to work on the development of the interface with the aim of creating a touch-enabled, modern design that felt familiar to existing users.
A streamlined design, an intuitive workflow and the use of touch or hand-free functionality were on the spec-list when Interacoustics commissioned Design-People to work on the development of the interface of their new VisualEyes™ software.
Design-people organized user visits and feature workshops to gain a deep understanding of the audiologists' workflow and to identify the most important functionalities. They then mapped the existing functionalities in terms of use frequency and importance, and limitations and possibilities were equally identified.
“We wanted the new interface to be touch enabled and it should be based on our current software design but with a more modern touch. The VisualEyes™ software is an evolution of existing products, so we wanted the users to feel they entered a universe they were already acquainted with.”
Design-people's successive user research resulted in a highly intuitive user interface for the new VisualEyes™ software. The new interface was based on the existing software design but with a modern touch. It was simplified and intuitive, making it easier for audiologists to operate the complex functionalities of VisualEyes™. The new interface has been well received, and Interacoustics are happy with the result.
