Motorola Alert Mobile App

Motorola | 2014

Motorola Alert is an application to help you connect more quickly to family and friends when feeling unsafe or when in an emergency. When you put your phone in alert mode, it sends periodic notifications with your location to the people you designate so they can act fast to get you the help you need.

The app was designed to support value-tiered markets like Brazil and India where threats to personal safety and security are an every-day concern.

Motorola Assist App

Motorola | 2014

Motorola Assist detects your current activity and morphs the phone according to your needs during the activity. It can recognize when you shouldn’t be bothered, like when you’re sleeping or in a meeting. After hours, it only lets important calls through. It even knows when you’re driving and can automatically read out new text messages or play music. When you’re at home it can announce calls. You can set actions and exceptions so that they work exactly how you want them to based on your context.

Sentience UX Project

Motorola | 2014

Back in 2014, I was asked to investigate what new experiences could be created for the mobile platform using the new sensor technologies available at that time. I examined the possibility of creating devices that can detect, assess, and react to a user's affective state.

Razorfish worked closely with JCPenney to create a guided navigation menu solution for their website. This was an extremely visible and important project for JCP since it would affect how users would ultimately browse and find most products on the site.
