The project objective was applying User Experience Design principles and processes to design and improve both the physical and UI interfaces of a driver control monitor inside a New Holland tractor (CNH group). The proposed problem was based on a real project done by the university research lab Xilab in collaboration with the CNH group.
Example of a modern tractor control monitor and cloche
For improving the overall User Experience, we followed a user-centered approach and the UX Design Cycle, made of 4 iterative steps:
- Requirements Gathering (req. list for users)
- Design Alternatives (concept generation)
- Prototyping (low and high fidelity)
- Evaluation (user testing)
We then analyzed user feedbacks from testing results to further improve the final high fidelity prototype done in Adobe XD.
For the final high fidelity interactive prototype, we followed UX and UI design best practices. In particular, we evaluated the interface using the 10 Nielsen heuristics and followed the Google Material Design guidelines and templates. Additionally, to maintain consistency over all the interface, we made a custom design system.
NOTE: The .xd file of the Adobe XD prototype (with the design system included) con be found in this repository.
NOTE: not all the pages are shown
Slides (in Italian) explaining the design process and methods used can be found in this repository. There are also files for the QFD matrix and the competitors benchmark spreadsheet.
