The brief

We were asked to design a mobile app for scientists on the moon managing “hexabot” robots.

3 high-fidelity app screens

The process was the most exciting part for me. It was a very quick, messy and iterative process, which required thinking about contexts beyond the norms of the world we live in today.

I incorporated multi-modal capabilities, anticipating the various constraints being in space would bring. I considered the intention behind interacting with these robots and the various ways information could be displayed and fed back. I included live-updates, such as a map and real-time perspective from the point of view of the robot.

Wireframes and user flows

A big thank you to bending spoons and congratulations to all applicants, finalists and winners.

*Disclaimer: We should stay aware that ‘good’ design should never be judged purely based on aesthetics or ‘Dribbble shot’ type designs. This competition was of course a bit of fun, and I value the process it brought and the connections it helped me make.
