Dear All, As a Communication/Interaction Designer, I wish to be the "eagle eye" and extend my knowledge on " the great user centered design adventure & user experience design on giants' product or services based companies" which employs cutting edge technology to foster unique thoughts and concepts traversing beyond mundane targets to achieve Utopian heights.
Organizations which better their best and are heralded as destinations rather than catalysts of design showcasing. I would request your assistance in enabling me to access and research upon a directory or resource of such unparalleled organizations/companies. I've been visiting a couple of very peopular sites like HCIbib.org wherein lot of resource links are given but again that doesn't list big companies worldwide from all the industry types and primarily companies wherein UCD is not just a "cost center". I wish to explore their working, development strategies and intentions vis-à-vis the progress. In a way to know the priorities to be addressed and rationalize their objectives accordingly. >From my own practical experience, I had a fortunate chance to learn UCD process followed in a giant company in Europe which is into manufacturing of electrical and mechanical products of refrigeration mechanics. They own IPR on their process and I'm sure any such companies wherein designers are not just confined to their seats but they go out and do user studies/ethnographic research and explore the entire arena in a defined process. Is there any literature/research material/online resource for a list of companies/organizations worldwide? I wouldn't mind paying for any such material if that's worth it. -- Prashant Dixit Interaction Designer @ Info Edge (I)Limited Ph: +91-9990303497 http://www.coroflot.com/prashant ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
