Furry Friend Project is a group project with Cassie Chuang to communicate a valuable topic to the general public using campaign elements. We need to create a strategy in order to promote our message through appropriate design components. The campaign theme we decided to focus on in the promotion of pet adoption at animal shelters.
For this project, I created a website that were inspired by 'parallax scrolling website,' which gives websites a great opportunity to:
1) Wow viewers with page depth and animation
2) Take a story-telling approach to guide visitors through the site
3) Make page visits last longer by encouraging visitors to scroll through the entire page
4) Provoke curiosity
5) Direct visitors to calls to action

Friendship Space

Friendship Space is an educational tablet application that teaches perspective taking skills to children with autism. This application was inspired by an existing strategy called “Memory Files,” which was developed by Michelle Garcia Winner, a renowned psychologist in the field. In this strategy, students draw brain maps of their friends and fill in each brain with the corresponding friend’s interests. They ask various questions to the peer, and record the answers on the map. Later on, they are advised to look and use information from the memory files to create social conversations with their friends.

Camp Grounds is a mobile app that connects professionals who work in decentralized works spaces — namely, the coffee shop. The app helps these workers find the most suitable coffee shop workspaces for their specific needs. Our primary objective was to help maximize their productivity through a "Campability" rating, which assess each café based on predefined user criteria and learning algorithms.
Qora Smart Glove - Reconnecting Partners After a Stroke

description
Qora Smart Glove is system to reconnect partners who experience a stroke. We began this project by looking at how people learn about objects by grasping them. While you gain knowledge by looking at the object, and feeling the weight in your hand, there is a wealth of other information that is missing in this interaction.
