IDEO + Bug Labs BUGbase user interface project

Technology

Dave Vondle from IDEO wrote in to tell us about a cool project they are working on with Bug Labs. From their introductory post:

We’re thrilled to be working with Bug Labs to make this great product even better. We are also prototyping a new, open way of working that we hope will combine the expertise of Bug Labs engineers, IDEO designers, and the BUG community throughout the design process.

This is a quick project with a focused objective: re-envision the interaction with the BUGbase, specifically the display and buttons. We want to hear from you! Share your thoughts about the current BUGbase interface and your ideas for making it better. How are you using your BUGbase interface? How do you wish you could use it? In return for your feedback, we’ll be regularly posting updates on our progress, as well as the end results. We, of course, welcome your thoughts at any point.

They’ve got a few concepts up (one of them is shown in the video at the top of this post), and have gotten some good feedback. BUG+IDEO Deep Dive Exploration : BUGbase UI
