At Jayway we have followed the virtual and augmented reality trends for some time and this spring augmented popped up everywhere with device plans from BMWs<\/a>\u00a0MINI<\/a>\u00a0and Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and other rumors as well. One company have come a bit further than plans, with a real device and an SDK \u2013 of course I talk about HoloLens<\/a>\u00a0from Microsoft.<\/p>\nSo with all the smart people gathered at Jayway, how do we approach this? How can we come up with some fun ideas around augmented reality and specifically using HoloLens?<\/p>\n
Planning for creativity<\/h3>\n
Ever heard of blank page paralysis? A blank page without rules often gets you less result than with strict rules and boundaries. So to get things started we made a simple plan:<\/p>\n
\n- Collect insights and inspiration<\/li>\n
- Build up the context<\/li>\n
- Decide what creative methods to use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
However, don\u2019t let this framing and context fool you. It\u2019s a way to trigger creative ideas, not smother them. Any crazy, far fetched and off topic idea are allowed during the early phases of the creative process but we\u2019ll get to the ideas soon.<\/p>\n
The first part is just collecting insights and inspiration<\/em>, trying to get a little sense of the field of augmented reality. We check what others have done with HoloLens, look at other uses of augmented reality. Check movies and a few research papers. We also look at virtual reality and see if there are ways to use that in an augmented setting. Examples and inspirations come from many different angles.<\/p>\nHoloPortation, HoloGardener, TED talks, BMW IoT talk, gaming and of course film \u2013 you can\u2019t talk anything holographic without referring to Star Wars and holochess.<\/p>\n
Next up is to trying to sort out a few trends and insights from this material and also other inputs. This is to get a platform for creative process. In this case we settled with three trends that we named: the personal shopper, the daily commentary and the backseat driver.<\/p>\n
As a side note, when writing about the daily commentary, we actually found some rumors about Snapchat creating augmented glasses.<\/p>\n
For the context<\/em>,\u00a0we creating a little family; don\u2019t worry they are not personas, that would have needed a lot more research. Family members are in this to kick off the creative process, not as models for interaction design. The family consist of a mom and a dad, two daughters and a granddad. There are also some contextual properties like how the work\/family time and interests. Added to this we want to look at how they look at themselves, the family, work\/school\/social, and finally at community\/society.<\/p>\nLast in the planning is methods of creative thinking<\/em>. Since we are a crowd that know each other well, I was never worried about creativity or prestige with ideas, it\u2019s not in Jayway way of working to shoot down each other\u2019s ideas. The different creative methods are useful to switch the brain into various paths. For this discussions\/workshop we settled on three methods;\u00a0Association game, Trend tree <\/em>and Lotus flower.<\/em><\/p>\n
