Initial User Group Backgrounds
The following is a description of the selected user group along with several initial sketches. These sketches were done as part of a brainstorming exercise to identify rough opportunities for product development.
Groups/Families within the same environment/household
With the ever increasing demands put on family members by should and work, the family is not able to spend as much time together as its members would like. Communication however, remains vital to a healthy family.
We would like to explore devices that would allow family members to share experiences through audio and visual communication, help the family organize their time so they are able to have more face-to-face time together, or a digital scrapbook type device.
Brainstorming Sketches:
Additional User Groups:Groups/Families communicating across distances
