Usability Design
Our approach is grounded in a deep understanding of ergonomic, psychological, and cognitive aspects to ensure the safety and effectiveness of our hardware.
What is Usability Design
Analyzing ergonomic, psychological, and cognitive parameters
We delve into the ergonomic, psychological, and cognitive factors influencing user interaction with hardware. This analysis is vital in developing functional requirements that mitigate use-related risks and enhance usability. Our process involves translating human factors analysis into functional requirements. We design our hardware to be intuitive and user-friendly, thereby reducing the likelihood of user errors.
Prioritizing user safety and effectiveness
Our designs emphasize user safety and effectiveness. We focus on minimizing risks and enhancing the overall usability of our hardware, ensuring a seamless and safe user experience.
Our approach to Usability Design
Comprehensive human factors analysis
Our usability design process includes detailed human factors analysis. During our frequent usability tests in the whole development process, we incorporate live usability test, detailed usability mockups and thorough PCA (Perception, Cognition, Action) analysis.
We employ an iterative design process, conducting regular live usability tests to refine our hardware based on real user feedback and interaction.
Risk assessment as a key component
Use-Related Risk Analysis (URRA) is integral to our process. These assessments ensure all potential user-related risks are identified and effectively mitigated.
Our commitment to quality
ISO 13485 certification and IEC 62366 training
Our usability engineers are ISO 13485 certified and IEC 62366 trained, underscoring our adherence to international standards in medical device usability. We ensure our usability design practices are compliant with relevant standards. Our focus extends beyond compliance to creating hardware that effectively meets user needs.
Continuous improvement based on standards and user feedback
Our commitment to quality in usability design is characterized by continuous improvement. We integrate industry standards and user feedback to ensure our hardware is user-friendly, safe, and upholds the highest usability standards.
