Project Overview

We designed an application with the purpose of tracking the movements of warehouse robots. This empowers users to monitor, troubleshoot, and manage robots within a warehouse environment. Users also have the capability to examine stock levels and navigate a 3D representation of the structure to identify any potential issues.

Challenges

We performed user interviews to capture workflows for inspecting robots and manually assessing the warehouse. Subsequently, we designed and prototyped the app, testing its dynamics and usage patterns with end users. Once the design was set, we provided support to the development team through style guides and digital assets for production.

Solutions

A prototype served as the foundation for user testing and guided development efforts. Collaborating closely with the development team, we successfully launched the project into the warehouse setting.

Process

  1. We interviewed clients to understand requirements and grasp how operators employed command lines and network tools to manage warehouse robots.
  2. We mapped out usage flows, catering to operators controlling the robots and monitoring the robots' behavior in relation to order fulfillment.
  3. We designed, iterated, and prototyped a low-fidelity mockup, subjecting it to evaluation by stakeholders and a select user group to ensure acceptance and usability.
  4. Our team generated high-fidelity mockups and development assets, crucial for the development team's efforts.


The Design

Central to this app is the 2D and 3D warehouse layout. Operators can select a robot from the map or a side list and issue commands directly on the screen, eliminating the need for operators to use a command line tool. This feature provides operators with a comprehensive view of each robot's location and the products they are transporting. As a result, it speeds up the process of assessing the "state of the warehouse."
