CUSTOMIZABLE ASMR USER INTERFACE
Another Challenge from DesignLab was to create a pixel-perfect UI of settings. I decided to challange my self and explore creating an ASMR app. Being my all-time favorite before bed I created one that would allow flexibility in the sound design.
Brainstorming
I got the inspiration an app called myNoise. It allows you to choose different sound modulation and adjust them with a visual equalizer. I decided to create my own take on it for iOS tablets and make it adjustable with simple parameters for all users.
SOUNDS
Before moving on from the sketches I made a list of the types of sounds I wanted to include in the design and started to jot down words I would use to describe them. These would be what the user can adjust to modify the sound they choose.
FEATURES INCLUDED
Types of sounds
Graphic sound parameters
Playlist of saved sounds
Casting to another device
Saving a sound
Volume control
Play button
Wireframe
The image below showcases the settings for Noise. In this case, we have controls for the lows, mids, and high frequencies.
COLOR
ASMR is something many people today use to relax and often times in the evening. With that in mind, I went with a dark interface and a bright greenish-blue for the components keeping it simple and easy to look at in the dark. One difference from the wireframe is now having a visual representation of the sound wave which would be cool to look at when developed.
HIGH FIDELITY INTERFACES
SUMMARY
I focused on capturing a pixel-perfect user interface in a field I can relate to. Looking back at the project now, I would have liked to include specific NOISE options such as brown, pink, green or white.
However, this was a great opportunity to visualize aesthetics for a tool that could help many people rest or cope.
