Make Complex Systems Understandable

Many functions. One clear structure.

The more powerful a system, the more functions, parameters, and settings the user interface needs to depict. Without clear information architecture, this quickly leads to being overwhelmed: users cannot find functions, do not understand connections, or use only a fraction of the actual functionality. We structure complex systems so that users can quickly understand and efficiently operate them—without sacrificing functionality.

✔ Faster understanding of complex functions   

✔ Less cognitive load for the user   

✔ Higher utilization of actual functionality

Problem

When the range of functions becomes overwhelming

Complex products come with complex user interfaces. In practice, this often manifests itself as follows:

  • Too much information at a glance – users lose track of what’s going on

  • Unclear navigation between function levels and menus

  • High cognitive load, particularly when used infrequently or intermittently

  • Functions are not found or are simply not used

Solution

Structure provides clarity

We bring order to complex functional scopes – through an information architecture that is based on the actual logic of use, rather than on the technical structure of the system.

  • A clear information architecture rather than a technically driven menu structure

  • Intuitive user guidance through consistent hierarchies and navigation paths

  • Reduced complexity on the surface, without losing any functionality

  • Prioritisation based on actual frequency of use and relevance

Method of Operation

Our Approach

1. Analysis —We capture the full range of functions and organize them by frequency of use and context.

2. Concept —This results in a new information architecture with clear levels and understandable paths.

3. Prototype — The new structure is made tangible as an interactive click dummy—including navigation and depth structure.

4. Testing —We check with users whether functions are found more quickly and correctly classified.

5. Implementation —The validated structure is implemented in close coordination with your development team.

Reference

Prinoth snow groomers

For the new generation of Leitwolf and Bison snow groomers, we have developed a control concept that translates a wide range of complex machine functions into a clear and intuitive user interface – including icon design, an animation concept and comprehensive usability testing.
