The Challenge
The battery’s innovation and ease of use was hindered only by the tiny interface built into’s it’s front panel – soldiers were having a hard time accessing it while wearing it as a part of their gear. We partnered with Revision to create an Android mobile and tablet experience that allows a soldier to control the battery from the palm of their hand, without ever having to adjust the battery’s position.
The Process
To streamline the in-app experience for our military users, we created a lean prototype and conducted user tests on an Air Force Base. Based on our findings, we worked with Revision to prioritize features, keeping usability and learnability as our core drivers.
We created custom graphics to further enhance the experience of using the app, allowing soldiers to quickly identify the different ports on the SharePack, and which piece of equipment they want to charge.
The Result
Tablet Optimization
