About MG iSmart Interface ng Infotainment System

Ang MG iSmart ay isang interface ng infotainment system na idinisenyo para sa mga sasakyan ng brand na MG. Sinusuportahan ng interface ang paglulunsad sa isang bagong merkado sa pamamagitan ng custom na solusyon na binuo sa paligid ng connectivity, mga digital touchpoint at mga smart assistant. Ang mga sesyon ng pananaliksik at ideation kasama ang brand team at ang mga customer sa mga target na merkado ang gumabay sa mga user flow. Tatlong konsepto ng interaksyon ang ginawan ng prototype, at anim na visual na direksyon ang sinubok bago napili at detalyadong binuo ang isang pinal na direksyon. Ang mga sasakyang may MG iSmart ay bumibiyahe na sa India at Thailand.

Unique Properties
SAIC s brand MG was challenged with a new market rollout and needed a custom HMI solution to support this strategic initiative. The design embraces new technology trends centered around connectivity digital touchpoints and smart assistants with an intuitive interface that strengthens consumers' emotional relationships with both the vehicle and the MG brand.
Dimensions & Packaging
Star s approach ensured that the UX flows were finalized and validated mid project so that the UI kit was ready for engineers to implement and develop. New MG cars equipped with our new HMI solution are now on the road in India and Thailand.

Production Technology
We began by understanding market trends and competitors. Then we conducted on site ideation to understand the customer journey and quickly prototype core interaction frameworks. Equipped with three interaction concepts we joined forces with SAIC s innovation team to work on the visual design. Together we produced six different design directions tested these internally and selected three finalists. SAIC selected a final design direction and our team developed a detailed visual and motion design.
Inspiration
Everything we do here at Star is human centered. We wanted to create an HMI that was not only functional and beautiful but user friendly and seamless. We dug in and hosted numerous creative and research sessions both with the SAIC team and MG customers in respective markets to learn about their needs what engages them and gather data points that empowered our design process to be user-focused from its inception.
Project Duration
Timeline January 2019 until May 2019
