Cyberdyne systems: UX/ UI - Prototype & Test

Designing the Fetchbot dashboard and creating a prototype to help the team better understand the user experience.

Industry

Robotics

Role

UX/UI Designer

Project Type

Individual

Duration

2 weeks

The Challenge

The task consisted of two parts. In the first part, I had five working days to design the Fetchbot dashboard.

In the second part, I also had five working days to create, set up, and test a prototype with six participants to understand the user experience.

The Solution

In the first phase, I created the dashboard in Figma based on the requirements in the brief, while taking inspiration from the AI tool Lovable.

In the second phase, I built a physical prototype out of cardboard and used the Microsoft Reaction Cards and open ended questions to evaluate each user test.

The Result

While four out of six participants found the product useful in daily tasks and expressed positive feelings toward it, two participants had negative reactions due to ethical concerns.

One participant noted, “I work in healthcare, and I have seen many instances where this type of robot has harmed patients in significant ways.”

Takeaways

In the first phase, I took inspiration from the AI tool Lovable to work more efficiently and save time, especially since tools like Figma Make and Base44 were not available at that point in the project.

In the second phase, I chose to create a physical prototype, as we were testing the user experience and a hands‑on model allowed participants to better feel and interact with the product.

I conducted the tests at the Gothenburg Public Library to quickly find replacement participants if someone withdrew at the last minute.

While this was a good idea, it would have been ideal to test the product in its natural environment, the home, as that would have provided even better results and a more realistic experience.
