Project Overview

My Role

UI/ UX Designer

Duration

48 hours

Background

In 2022, I participated in a 48-hour product design hackathon. The challenge was to redesign the Air-Venti app, which aimed to help users track the availability of ICU beds and ventilators. This app in its current form, does not provide a good user experience.

Objectives

Primary Objective:
Redesign the user experience for users of all age groups.

Secondary Objective:
Design a map view displaying hospital locations with ICU bed and ventilator statistics.

Research

Current App Design

At first, I closely examined the existing design, aiming to uncover any potential shortcomings. Designs

Identifying Issues in Current Design

Analyzing the current setup allowed me to identify specific areas for improvement, setting the stage for a more user-centric approach. Designs

Wireframes

Building on the issues uncovered during the research phase and the objectives of the problem statement, I sketched wireframes, mapping out how the redesigned features would flow. Designs

High-Fidelity Designs

After refining the wireframes and ensuring they met the envisioned goals, I turned to Figma to create high-fidelity prototypes. I refined the hospital details screen to introduce a feature allowing users to select a bed before finalizing their booking.

Going Forward

Key Learnings

With time constraints, I learned to prioritize effectively, tackling crucial user issues identified in research. This taught me to make impactful decisions efficiently within limited time frames.

Next Steps

Continuous User Feedback: Implement a feedback loop for ongoing user input, ensuring the app remains aligned with user needs.
Accessibility Considerations: Prioritize accessibility features to ensure usability for users with diverse needs.
Scalability Planning: Consider potential scalability issues as the user base grows, and plan for additional features and optimizations.
