Client

Accunea

Kidderminster, United Kingdom

Project Summary

Q agency designed and developed the UX/UI and an Android tablet interface for a medical device startup, using Arduino-based demo boards and the client's branding as references. They built features to view, pull and visualize device data and implemented an export/offload workflow to PC. The work was completed within two sprint periods (Dec. 2019–Jan. 2020) and the client was satisfied with the deliverable and project management. The client is the co-founder of Accunea, an R&D-stage medical device startup focused on organ transplant patients.

Key Challenges

The client had built the hardware but lacked a usable interface to view and analyze data
Needed a quick, low-cost turnaround due to a smaller budget
Vendor had to work with hardware they had not previously seen or used

Project Deliverables

UX/UI design for the medical device interface
Android tablet application
Data visualization (explainer graphs)
Integration with Arduino-based demo boards and data export/offload to PC

Project Solution

Q agency developed the device's UX/UI and implemented an Android application so users could view, pull and visualize data. The vendor used the client's logo, color scheme, and provided user information to design the interface, iterated on mockups with the client, and built the application in Android Studio. The app allowed users on handheld tablets to interact with captured data and included functionality to offload data to a PC for analysis. The client supplied Arduino-based demo boards and protocol/data-format details which Q agency integrated with during development. The project team consisted of three to four members, including a key account manager, an engineer, and a UX designer.

Project Outcome

Delivered a usable interface that the client used in research
Client was very satisfied with the work and project management
Interface exhibited some bugs due to the short two-sprint engagement
Project included regular check-ins and weekly sprint reviews led by the project manager

Quality of Deliverables

“Q agency delivered a usable UX/UI that met the client’s needs within two sprints, despite working with hardware they had no experience with. The client was satisfied with Q agency’s work and project management — they had sprint review meetings and project progress meetings with the project manager.”
