AFTER WORKOUT IS COMPLETED
Slide 13
EXPERIMENTAL METHOD: PROCESS 3 different participants. Gender
wise Workout experience wise Goal wise Laid out paper prototypes
screen by screen + script for voice interaction Screens differed
for each participant. Video taped each participant for later
analysis Asked questions/took notes.
Slide 14
EXPERIMENTAL METHOD: PARTICIPANT 1 Male Rarely exercised Goals:
balance, coordination, endurance. Provided us insight on how new
exercisers would see the learning an exercise task (tutorial) which
is mainly targeted at them.
Slide 15
EXPERIMENTAL METHOD: PARTICIPANT 2 Male Exercised occasionally
Not a dedicated exerciser. Goals: strength/resistance/endurance.
Liked outdoor activities. Provided us insight on how a casual
semi-experienced exerciser would perceive the application.
Slide 16
EXPERIMENTAL METHOD: PARTICIPANT 3 Female Exercised everyday
Goals: endurance. Liked running/core workouts. Provided valuable
feedback on how experienced users who may know much of the
information presented perceive the value of the application.
Slide 17
TEST MEASURES Main concern: ease of voice vs. touch
interactions. Kept track of users looking confused during the
interface flows. Kept track of how long tasks took and if they were
intuitive. Voice vs. Touch preferences. Asked questions at the end
about hybrid interface.
Slide 18
GENERAL EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS 3/3 Easy to understand and had a
good flow. 2/3 Touch over Voice (Although both convenient). 3/3
Voice feedback was helpful.
Slide 19
TASK 1 RESULTS PROFILE SET UP AND BODY SCAN Participant 1: Body
scan was awkward. Participant 2: Knew how to use body scan and pick
goals immediately. Participant 3: Performed it fine but had some
issues with picking goals
Slide 20
TASK 2 RESULTS LEARNING NEW EXERCISES (TUTORIALS). 1/3 Skipped
tutorial and went straight for the stretch. 2/3 Said tutorial was
helpful / easy to understand 3/3 Enjoyed performing the task. Voice
feedback was amusing / helpful
Slide 21
TASK 3 RESULTS GETTING INTERACTIVE EXERCISE FEEDBACK. 3/3
understood how to get body status feedback/ used it well. 3/3
Clicked home page button to complete the test 3/3 questioned the
purpose of X on last screen. 3/3 understood purpose and found it
useful/ innovative.
Slide 22
SUGGESTED UI CHANGES Removing X from last last screen-
redundant. Being thrown back to the goals menu after choosing one
goal was confusing Drop down menus instead of popups. Having a
status button to click on instead of saying status.
