Creating 医疗 设备 接口 设计 that users love

UX/UI often come hand in hand, and are at the forefront of the design process.

User experience (UX) was first coined by Don Norman, and describes the experience an individual has as they interact with a product. Therefore, UX consists of all aspects of the end-users interaction with your design. Our UX designers specialize in creating products that are easy for end-users to use, thereby making it a crucial part of the user-centered design process.

User interface (UI) broadly describes how a user is interacting with a product. It enables your clients to 有效的ly use your design, programme, or 软件 to achieve its goal. As it makes up the visuals end-users will be seeing as they use your product, it is a key skill to master to ensure you have created a user-centered design.
