Style Guide
Main ScreensThe main design is the AI-supported accessible map, smart telltale notifications, and cluster with driver assistant view.
Usability TestWith the high fidelity, clickable prototype, we give it to the target users for real world tasks while we observe and measure with 1) task completion, 2) number of steps, 3) time taken, 4) user rating, and open ended feedback.
The purpose of the usability test is to test the effectiveness of the accessibility interface, and identify usability issues that might exist in key features for final iterations.

Reflection
Impact
Limitation
This was a University project completed in collaboration with a Hyundai representative, so we could not build or test the solution in a production vehicle. Time constraints also kept me from exploring every feature I thought would be helpful—for example, condition-specific driving modes (such as a red-green colour-blind mode) and dedicated night- or bad-weather displays.
What I learned Researching AI and accessibility revealed just how many disability profiles exist and how challenging truly inclusive design can be. By narrowing scope to vision-related needs, I saw the value of clear constraints and domain knowledge: understanding automotive HMI standards, visual-impairment nuances, and real driving contexts was essential before proposing solutions.
Now I’m confident that, regardless of the domain, I can carry the learning skills to all future projects:
- Ramp up fast: dive into standards, user studies, and expert interviews to understand new territory.
- Set clear limits: define a manageable scope (here, vision-related needs) so the work stays achievable and useful.
- Translate insight to actionable solutions: turn fresh knowledge into evidence-based guidelines and prototypes.
