The prototypes being presented are the result of a journey exploring the possibilities of UX design and new technologies in video retrieval and lifelogging in the course MIX202: Design for Media Use. Duc Tien Dang Nguyen is the course responsible and has worked together with co-teachers Simon Iden and Willem Westli. We would also like to give a special thanks to the Lifelog Search Challenge Organisers and the Video Browser Showdown Organisers for their participation in this course!
The students have during this semester worked hard to create innovative solutions that address real-world problems in healthcare, court, and other areas. They have collaborated with top-notch international experts from Ireland, Switzerland, Portugal, Austria, and Germany, who have provided valuable insights and support throughout the course.
14:00 – 14:10: Introduction by Duc Tien Dang Nguyen, course responsible and associate professor at the Department of Information Science and Media Studies.
14:10 – 15:00: Pitch. The students will present their prototypes and the work they have done for this course.
15:00 – 16:00: Demo. The audience will be able to test the different prototypes while enjoying some prosecco and finger food.
This event is hosted by TekLab, with Helene Høylandskjær, Julia Hellem Brandt, Audun Håkon Klyve Gulbrandsen and Lars Nyre, in collaboration with NCE Media.
Cue provides a comprehensive platform for those looking to improve their communication skills, mainly focusing on people struggling with social interactions. Through a tailored database of educational videos, interactive tools and support, the system seeks to empower you to confidently engage with the world around you. Cue is designed by Ida M. Paasche, Veslemøy H. Heggen, Anders F. Gjerald and Mathias K. Sundvor.
Indicia is a revamp of Myscéal, intended to be used as a tool, specifically an alibi, in legal contexts. In Indicia, you should be able to search queries to find images from a desired day or time when potential criminal activities occurred. Indicia allows you to save images for later use, as well as use maps to search for images from places you have been. Indicia is designed by Fredrik Hajian, Kristin Dale Riisøen, Mads Maassen Gornitzka, Tore Sæther Tennfjord, and Vilde Hollund.
We have developed a prototype that is an improvement of Memoria. Memoria is a tool used in the Lifelog Search Challenge. However, we are developing a prototype targeted at a new audience, field journalists. This prototype will make it easy for journalists on-the-go to use lifelogging data in their workday. The name of the prototype will be announced soon! Designed by Tobias Strand, Bjørk Margrete Ellingsbø, Ida Søfting Monsen, Susanne Ziener and Gunn Helen Kjellstad Mjeltevik.
A system that will use a combination of lifelogging with a camera and wearable technologies (such as a watch, ring, etc.) to analyze your habits and identify which habits affect your mental health. The idea is that this is a system that a general practitioner can give to a patient who is on a waiting list for a psychologist, so that they can receive some form of follow-up in the meantime. The data collected during this period can also be brought to the therapist, and they can review and discuss the data together. The system can also be used in consultation with a psychologist. Designed by Anine Arnesen, Pauline Fjuk, Katrine Sundsbak, Maria Hordvik and Julie Teilstad Østby.
These prototypes will also be published here at TekLab, stay tuned!
