Project Description

uFind is a self-help information kiosk for the University of Montana bookstore.  A successful implementation of this product would (hopefully!) help patrons locate and retrieve items from the bookstore. This system prototype was created in the spring of 2010 for CS 576: User Interface Design as part of an exercise to teach the basic principles of user-centered software design.

The steps in the design process included:
  1. Low-Fidelity Design: First Concepts and Sketches
  2. Iterative Design: Collaborative Evaluation and Refinement
  3. Prototyping:  High-Fidelity Implementation
  4. User Testing:  Real-World Assessment
  5. Reflection: Design Summary and Presentation
