Yet when a new sensor or camera hits the market, they all adopt it the same way.<br />It made me think: technology is no longer the differentiator. Everyone can buy the same parts.<br />So how do you actually create something new?<br />There are two ways:<ol style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><li><strong>Goal-Oriented Design</strong>&nbsp;&ndash; The most common way. You get a new sensor and ask:&nbsp;<em>how can we use this to improve our machine? (The problem is that everybody else is doing the same)</em></li><li><strong>Event-Oriented Design</strong>&nbsp;&ndash; You go to the field. Watch the operators. Study the workflow. Discover what really needs fixing. Then build the tool that solves it.</li></ol> The second path takes longer. It's messier. But it's where the breakthroughs come from.<br />Maybe that's why so few take it.</div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's Never Easy or Fun]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.ehde.se/blogg/its-never-easy-or-fun]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.ehde.se/blogg/its-never-easy-or-fun#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Thu, 29 Aug 2024 07:09:37 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.ehde.se/blogg/its-never-easy-or-fun</guid><description><![CDATA[       &#8203;So, your company has developed a more efficient tool, and it's time to take it to market.

What do you say about it? From your perspective, the job is now easier, and that's probably what you'll emphasize. But before you make that claim, take a moment to consider the professionals who will be using your tool. There are often numerous challenges and obstacles surrounding their work that you may not have thought of. Professional users are under pressure not only to be efficient but also to maintain a high standard of quality in their work.</strong><br />I was once involved in a project where a company touted its new invention as a game-changer that would make the job easier. However, when I conducted field studies, the users simply laughed at the claim. This experience came to mind when I recently read about a research group aiming to make a certain task "fun and easy" for its users. I won't disclose the details to avoid embarrassing anyone, but their approach felt disconnected from reality.<br />As a professional photographer, let me use a camera as an example. A new camera might be exciting when you first unpack it, but the real challenge is getting used to the controls, navigating through the menus, and adapting it to your workflow. For a pro, a camera isn't about making the job fun and easy. My real job is mastering lighting, managing people on set, and capturing the perfect shot. What I really want is a tool that&rsquo;s transparent, one that stays out of my way and delivers the quality I&rsquo;m aiming for without any fuss.<br />So, next time you're developing, researching, or marketing a tool for professionals, do a reality check. The real challenges might not be what you think they are. Listen to your users, understand their daily hurdles, and strive to create tools that truly support them.<br /><br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.ehde.se/blogg/my-mechanic-told-me-i-couldnt-repair-your-brakes-so-i-made-your-horn-louder]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.ehde.se/blogg/my-mechanic-told-me-i-couldnt-repair-your-brakes-so-i-made-your-horn-louder#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Sat, 13 Jul 2024 09:31:58 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.ehde.se/blogg/my-mechanic-told-me-i-couldnt-repair-your-brakes-so-i-made-your-horn-louder</guid><description><![CDATA[Just nu har jag anledning att utforska en hel bransch i ett varum&auml;rkesarbete.
