Research Topic 051 / 200
Device operating state remains inconspicuous.
Standby, active, and completion states show minimal visual shift; users cannot determine next action.
Three-step solution method
- Map state transitions and what users need to know at each stage.
- Combine light, interface, sound, and physical-form feedback under consistent status meanings.
- Test status detection and interpretation through observation and operation tasks.
Key Deliverables
- State transition diagram
- Feedback guidelines
- Interactive Prototyping
Verification Approach
Record misread states, repeated actions, and confusion while waiting.
