PUI, User Research

Patina Engraver

Description

I participated in successive research projects on utilizing patina(history of use) as a design element to enhance users’ reflection in content or data appreciation. As an assistant researcher, I contributed in conducting user research and analyzing insights. Patina Engraving System engraves patterns on an activity tracker according to the user’s activity logs. Using a piercing technique, the patina of activity logs has been made abstract, visually rich, gradually emerging, and historically accumulated. During the eld trial, we found that the patina motivated the participants to increase exercises for engraving aesthetic patinas. More details in the thesis Patina Engraver: Visualizing Activity Logs as Patina in Fashionable Trackers.
