POVs & Experience Prototypes

Problem Domain:

Health & Fitness

Initial POV:

We met Victoria, a Stanford student. We were amazed to realize she uses Alexa daily to track little things like the weather and timers for sleep and laundry. It would be game-changing if we could help Victoria keep track of more significant parts of her life such as her health.

Additional Needfinding Results: Scott

Note: He thought it would be beneficial for him to have a way of keeping track

• f his workouts stats and measure

improvement over time.

Additional Needfinding Results: Marco

Note: Marco thinks talking to voice assistants in public is weird and does not like when people do it.

Additional Needfinding Results: Josh

Note: He said clients will pay around $3000 but then not show up. Ultimately, he says people have time to work out, they just need to prioritize it.

Additional Needfinding Results: Jackie

Note: Jackie’s younger son in his early teenage years is type I diabetic. When she cooks for the family, she makes sure that the meal has minimum carbs.

Revised POV 1: Josh

• a 24-year-old bodybuilder
• fitness trainer
• wner of several fitness companies

Amazed to realize he had a personal trainer to help him. Game-changing if we could help people design and follow lifestyle habits that work best for them.

Revised POV 2: Jackie

• 40 year old mother of 2
• diabetic son

Amazed to realize that she does not keep track of her son’s eating and working out schedules despite his condition. Game-changing if we could help monitor and correct people’s health.

3 Solutions:

1. What’s in your fridge 2. Surprise workouts 3. Mental health tracker

Experience Prototype 1: Exercise Surprise

The Assumption Exercises and runs can be boring and people will be willing to take fun and spontaneous routes.

Exercise Surprise Feedback:

• Have a distance update.
• Feedback on pace and time.
• Option to select the difficulty level and gain

in elevation.

• Feature to bookmark the location of

interesting things landmark along the way.

Experience Prototype 2: Grocer-Ease

The Assumption People have a hard time tracking what they need to buy from the grocery store, and that they need help to do so.

Grocer-Ease Feedback

• Notification on expiry dates of products.
• Options to inventory grocery using a

barcode scanner or a camera.

Experience Prototype 3: Friend Therapy

The Assumption: People would feel comfortable enough to speak personally with voice technology so that we could gauge their mental well-being.

Friend Therapy Feedback:

• Surprised by how easy and natural

conversing with the prototype was

• Great way to have a companion without

feeling like a burden

• Want the power to clear the history of the

app for privacy

• Voice should sound human and natural

Summary:

• First, people like the idea of spicing up their exercise life.
• Secondly, knowing what’s in your fridge can be a pain when

you’re not with your fridge.

• Overall, we felt that ‘Grocer-Ease’ and ‘Friend Therapy’

would present significant obstacles moving forward. ‘Exercise Surprise’ was well-liked, viable, and focused on an issue we really wanted to address.
