How do prototypes with different fidelity contribute to effective communication within a product team? (English)
Abstract [sv]

Prototyper är verktyg som UX-designers använder för att diskutera designidéer med intressenter samt för att utvärdera koncept. Prototyper har olika verklighetsgrader och används i olika syften. När en UX-designer arbetar kan denna ingå i ett produktteam. Produktteamet arbetar med att underhålla eller skapa produkter och tjänster utefter de behov som finns, både från företaget och ur kundernas perspektiv. När ett team arbetar tillsammans är effektiv kommunikation viktigt för att missförstånd ska undvikas. Att ha förståelse för hur verktygen som används bidrar till effektiv kommunikation är då en viktig aspekt att beakta. Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur prototyper med olika verklighetsgrader bidrar till effektiv kommunikation inom ett produktteam. Intervjuer utfördes med människor som arbetar inom ett produktteam och för-och nackdelar med prototyper med olika verklighetsgrader identifierades som sedan jämfördes med element som ska beaktas i en effektiv kommunikation. För- och nackdelar var bland annat att lo-fi prototyper är effektiva i fysiska miljöer och mid-fi prototyper ger en helhetsbild över designen och mottagaren kan då enklare ge feedback. Resultatet genererade irekommendationer som kan bidra med vad en UX-designer kan tänka på när prototyper med olika verklighetsgrader används för att bidra till effektiv kommunikation.

Abstract [en]

Prototypes are tools used by UX-designers to discuss design-ideas with stakeholders and to evaluate concepts. Prototypes have different fidelity of reality and are used for different purposes. When a UX-designer working the designer can work in a Product team. A product team work to maintain or create products that are needed, both from the company and from customers perspective. When a team works together, effective communication is important in order to avoid misinterpretation. Understanding how tools are used for effective communication is an important aspect to consider. The purpose of the study was to investigate how prototype with different fidelity of reality support effective communication within a product team. Interviews where conducted with people who workes in aproduct team and advantages and disadvantages of prototypes with different fidelity of reality were identified which were then compared with elements to be considered in effective communication. Advantaged and disadvantages were among other things, lo-fi prototypes are effective in physical environments and mid-fi prototypes provide a comprehensive picture of the design and the recipient can then more easily give feedback. The result was generated in recommendations that can contribute what a UX-designer can think of when prototypes with different fidelitys of reality are used to contribute to effective communication.
