Over 5 years intensive exchange with the target group...
... are the foundation of our work.
Rosenhof Academy
We founded the “Rosenhof Academy” in co-operation with the residential fold “Rosenhof” in Berlin-Zehlendorf to be able to learn from our target group. We are continuously meeting up with the residents for shared research sessions.
Long-term study 1
We have launched our first long-term study with the research company YOUSE, analysing interactions with the product in an every-day environment, identifying recommendations and optimising potentials in three phases. The usability of our product was tested and adapted in cooperation with our target group through practical tasks, online surveys and workshops.
Long-term study 2
Another long-term study was conducted in association with the members of the Senior Research Group, the Senior Computer Club Berlin and the Humanist Association Berlin. Subject of this research was, how a universal interface may facilitate the use of tablet computers in an every-day environment. Along with online questionnaires, qualitative research interviews were held to gain a better understanding of the expectations and attitudes towards the technology.
Co-operations
Anywhere, where people need to interact with computers, the Universal Interface can make the use easier. This potential has been recognized by a large banking company and a well-known car manufacturer, who have asked for our advice. Together we are taking this task on board to ensure that the older generation will not lose access to our hi-tech society.
Nepos Advisory Council
We can only develop an ideal product for the generation 65+ if we do it together with them. This is why we have founded the Nepos Advisory Council. We regularly meet with our committee members for a discourse on digitalisation and technology. They advise us on new product ideas and test out the features we develop.
4 long-term tests over a period 3 months each with 60 participants, 24 one-on-one tests with 307 participants, 23 surveys with 333 participants, 8 interviews with 160 participants, 19 usabilitiy-tests with 256 users, meetings of the Nepos Advisory Council with 10 members, each development step was supported by a total of 1,128 people.
