The results of usability testing and expert reviews can be inconsistent across evaluators. How can we make these more reliable?
Should you design your perfect product or begin with your minimum viable product?
This week we explore the collected knowledge of work by three research institutes (National Academy of Sciences, Seoul National University and UC Santa Barbara) to image possibles within our medical device design and development applications.
What can an ovipositor can do? How does it relate to space exploration and medical devices? Let’s explore what makes these Ichneumonoidea wasps so interesting.
As with other aspects of medical device design, medical packaging has its own unique set of challenges. Taking a big step back and reconsidering our assumptions can help us make the kind of impact necessary to ensure our future.
Life adapts and evolves. Biomimcry is nested within that statement and can take you wherever you wish to go. The question is, how far do YOU want to take it?
When it comes to understanding which colors to choose, how to apply color and why, and what kinds of materials and surface finish create the most value, design expertise and direction is required. It’s time to make medical products object of desire rather than disinclination.
Which materials make the most sustainable sense and for what applications? How can we create products that balance function with recycling opportunities? With new materials available and on the horizon, the balance point is shifting toward a place that’s more sustainable.
Most databases today aren’t adaptable; it’s hard and the benefits aren’t significant enough to make the effort worthwhile. Most companies with products of various sizes have relatively few variations (think S, M, L, XL); and in this case, adaptability is superfluous.
Aging has important implications on design, the most significant of which puts emphasis on graphic and product user interfaces.
