    uniE613 Marshalls 3D (AR) Visualiser
    Marshalls AR 3D Visualiser! Responsibilities User Research Mind Maps Information Architecture User Journeys Wireframing User Testing User Interface (UI) A/B Testing A new addition for 2021 to enhance the shopping experience due to the current situation we are/were facing, was to bring in a 3D Visualisation of the products in order for consumers to be able to see the product in lifelike quality. Spin the product, see how the lighting has an effect on the product at different angles, see/almost feel, the textures from the incredibly detailed photographic renders. Then, if that doesn’t feel like it’s enough, we offer an Augmented Reality experience via a dynamic QR code. This then takes you into a new and exciting mobile experience where you can utilise the native features on your mobile device to go out into your own space and virtually lay the product on the ground and see how it will look in your garden as a patio, or if it’s a driveway product, as a driveway. There are also added benefits for this enhanced experience that benefits us all; No waiting Instantly see the product in your space. Larger area view For better visibility of colour variation Eco friendly No waste. No carbon emissions. Marshalls AR 3D Visualiser!
    uniE613 GOAL Live (app)
    GOAL Live app! As part of the UI/UX team, I was responsible for helping to form the foundation design for the Goal Live app. Available for both Apple & Android devices, the (early material based) design helped make the app available to be featured in both app stores. Also designed a companion app for the first generation apple watch. One of the major improvements in architecture was the redesign of the match pages. We wanted to allow users to scan key information as quickly as possible. Regardless of a pre, live or post-match state. The new design addressed this issue by introducing a dashboard for every game. The components now reorder themselves depending on the 'state' of the match. The match dashboard introduced a ‘card' approach to presenting data. To accompany this we ensured that tapping on any card would launch a ‘paper’. Retaining the ability to explore deeper if you want to do so. Match papers deliver further information for granular match experience.
