This study explored using a magic object kit to aid idea generation for advanced technology with stroke survivors. The kit generally worked well, but refinements are needed for better participant engagement and ideation outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Co-design Methodologies

Background:

  • Engaging non-designers in advanced technology ideation presents challenges.
  • Participants often lack in-depth knowledge of technological possibilities.
  • Facilitating imagination while informing about scope is crucial for effective ideation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a 'magic object' kit in supporting ideation for advanced technology.
  • To explore the co-design process with stroke survivors in a workshop setting.
  • To identify areas for improvement in ideation support tools for diverse participants.

Main Methods:

  • A co-design workshop was conducted with stroke survivors.
  • A kit of "magic objects" (cards and physical props) was used to stimulate idea generation.

  • Participant feedback was collected on the usability and effectiveness of the kit.

    • Main Results:

    • The magic object kit was generally well-received and facilitated the ideation process.
    • Participants found the kit helpful in exploring technological possibilities.
    • Specific suggestions for improvement included the kit's introduction, card design, and object quantity.

    Conclusions:

    • The magic object kit shows promise as a tool for supporting ideation in co-design workshops.
    • Further refinement of the kit's components and introduction can enhance its effectiveness.
    • This approach can be valuable for involving individuals with limited technical backgrounds in technology development.
