Designing for Augmented Reality Experiences
- 1. Designing for Augmented Reality Experiences Sarah Auvil, Mobile UX Architect
- 4. Overview • What is AR/VR? • AR Platforms • AR Design Principles & Business Value
- 6. You’ve probably heard of " “AR/VR”.
- 7. AR =/= VR One augments or overlays content on reality, while virtual completely replaces reality.
- 8. You’ve probably played an augmented reality game!
- 12. Two Major AR Platforms
- 13. Differences • ARKit for iOS launched first, vertical support (walls) • ARCore launched more recently, supports horizontal / floors only (for now)
- 15. High Potential Applications • Retail (product visualization) • Healthcare • Education • Gaming
- 16. Factors that Make or Break AR • Solving a meaningful problem • Onboarding: how do I use this thing? • 3D Asset Quality
- 17. AR Demos
- 19. Iterative Research & Design Process 1. Test initial prototype 2. Identify gaps in user understanding 3. Iterate design to address gaps – add right guidance 4. Refine timing, size, sensitivity 5. Test again and measure improvements
- 20. Figuring out the steps 1. Scan floor (sideways motion) 2. Object appears 3. Need an easy method to rotate, pick up, move and place object
- 21. Common Errors / Use Cases 1. Not enough light 2. Tracking lost (user moves device too quickly) 3. Loading problems
- 22. Design Principles for AR Accept that your user will first fling their phones around wildly and tap everywhere to figure it out – and that’s mostly fine
- 24. Design Principles for AR Animation is your friend: demo and clearly explain actions & result
- 25. Iterate, Iterate, Iterate! “You don’t learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.” – Richard Branson

- 28. AR is quickly evolving – but it’s still about the users
- 29. Thank you!
