Smart Hat Project

 

View Prototype

 

Smart Hat is a concept for a product/software that keeps track of the hours construction workers spend on the job. It keeps track of hours worked/not worked, and provides emergency tracking of the workers – both for the workers themselves and their site manager. My role was to create the software layout, perform user testing, and create the Axure prototype.

 

The Product:

Patent Utilized

US 7592911 B1
“Construction hard hat having electronic circuitry”
Identifying one or more sectors of the construction site that include a geographic area represented by the GPS coordinates.

 

How Smart Hat Works

The Smart Hat GPS activates when put on the head of a construction worker.  This will track how many workers are on site and how long they have been working for.  Information will be streamed live as well as recorded on Smart Hat website and database accessible by contractors, clients, and construction unions.

User Personas

I created three different experience maps that correspond with the three user personas to further explore how different users would engage with the product.
