After a few rounds of interviewing designers and stakeholders in several major game companies, I found out the pain points were close to our secondary research.

INSIGHTS
TO THE FUTURE

In the future, the light weight XR devices could replace smart phones, and become the entrance for the internet.

How might we build a more effective multi-disciplinary collaboration tool in order to improve the creative cooperation for remote design teams in the game industry?

Multi-affordance

The lightweight MR devices enable unlimited controlling affordances on generic everyday objects, allowing users to control their homes without the hassle of finding dedicated controllers.

The control overlays provided by the MR devices can even adapt to what the user holds, providing the users with maximum comfort and natural gesture controls.

Posture-based Automation

Thanks to the tracking nature of MR devices, the system can unlock more intuitive automation by tracking and learning from users' daily habits and postures, further reducing the steps of reaching the home settings that fit the users’ needs.

Configuration & Customization

Even with the existence of light weighted MR devices, the mobile phone will still not be easily replaced in the future. In our system, the user will be able to have the ability to set up the automation both through portable devices from a third-person view, and postures from a first-person view.
