I was matched with Evolution Devices, a medical device start-up company that has developed the first Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) device, EvoWalk, that uses artificial intelligence to track walking patterns to personalize patients stimulation levels. They were recently recognized for their solution as 1 of 5 finalists by the Toyota Mobility Foundation in 2019. Currently, the EvoWalk device is being used by clinicians and patients with impairments from a stroke, MS, or other neurological issues. This device helps to rehabilitate patients walking form, rehabilitate drop foot issues, replace patients drop foot brace, and prevent falls.
The Problem:
Evolution Devices currently has a mobile application for its EvoWalk device. However, it was built to be functional, and Evolution Devices would like it to be more engaging.
The Solution:
The solution for Evolution Devices was to create a new application that is centered around the users, as well as be a more engaging application to keep patients motivated towards their goals.
As the designer for this project, my role was to develop a new UI for the mobile application, EvoWalk. During this process, I conducted secondary research of current engagement and motivational tactics with mobile applications, created low-fidelity prototypes out of sketches to develop a general direction of the application, and ultimately designed a high-fidelity prototype of the redesigned EvoWalk app.
Below are some high-fidelity screens from the redesign, as well as a link to the prototype.
