UX and interface design for embedded systems

This course can also be credited toward ECEA 5346 in CU Boulder's Electrical Engineering Master's degree program. UX and Interface Design for Embedded Systems is the first of three courses in the Embedded Interface Design (EID) specialization, an online version of the face-to-face EID course taught in the Embedded Systems Engineering Master's degree program. This first course focuses on user experience (UX) and the related methods, practices, and principles that will help ensure that your embedded interface designs for devices and systems meet the needs and desires of users. The course includes an introduction to UX, then breaks down a typical UX design process into four phases, including planning, user research, design methods, and testing to verify and validate. Much of the material covers generally applicable UX techniques, but there is a special emphasis on embedded design issues. The class includes hands-on projects that allow you to try out some of the key techniques in the process of rigorous interface design.
