Skills / My role
I led UX research, visual direction & UI utilising Figma.
Challenge / Opportunity
Calibrating Disguise’s XR stage was a black-box ritual—dozens of engineer-only steps, zero documentation, and precious studio hours bleeding away—so we tore it down under lockdown, fusing live user tests, on-site workflow mapping, and rapid-fire design sprints to rebuild a calibration flow any operator could run on the first try.
Overview
Disguise Designer's XR workflow is an advanced tool that empowers users to create virtual stages and set extensions using LED video and external hardware. The XR calibration workflow underwent a significant redesign during its beta phase, resulting in a drastic improvement in usability.
Approach
As a UX designer, I collaborated closely with the development team and senior stakeholders to ensure that user research, on-site design input, workflow documentation, and user feedback were integrated into the rapid redesign of an extended reality calibration workflow. The project, which spanned five months during the 2021 UK lockdown, was conducted at Disguise's XR Studio in London.
