Overview
Current online banking methods are complex and overwhelming for the user. It is difficult enough for tech-savvy internet users to figure out, so it must be extremely difficult for average and disabled individuals. Through the process of universal design, we came up with an online banking system that is intuitive, user-friendly, and highly accessible to the widest range of users.
Mission Statement
The process of designing a GPII online banking system so that it is usable by people with the widest range of abilities and constraints as is commercially practical and profitable.
Project Scope
- Fully functional online banking site
- Limited to computers, tablets, and smartphones
- Reach all disability types as economically feasible
- Two month timeframe
- Assumptions: First-time setup will be performed for the user
The Team
Our project team is comprised of seven engineering students enrolled in ISyE 662 in Spring 2013. The class is taught by Prof. Vanderheiden and focuses on product design for the disabled and elderly. Our product is required to be accessible, mass-marketable, and practical. Semester-long design principles and concepts were applied to design this product.
