DOME: The Solution for future Miners using space technology!
(User Research and Product Design)
Overview
This was one of the project we worked on for future miners and their families, for improving not only their working but also their living conditions by sustainably using space technology which is being used in today world, while keeping our environment in mind!
Background
Our User story/ Scenario : How may we improve human safety in highly dangerous environment?
Additionally, the harvesting of non-renewable resources as well as the collection of precious metals is something that will continue to happen for many years to come. This sparked worry towards those affected by its processes, and its environmental effects on the surrounding ecosystems. As electronics continue to skyrocket in manufacturing, so does the mining of the materials used within them, collected through underground mining mainly! so this project was a collaborative effort of UX designers and Industrial designers proposing solutions to tackle this issue in the future.
