Why Enroll for the Course?

As the user experience (UX) transforms and incorporates new technologies, we must rethink our interactions and infrastructure. These emerging technologies--such as multi-touch, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and haptics--are propelling us toward the next generation in human-computer interactions with no signs of slowing down.

Developed by New York University’s Tandon School of Engineering, in association with RLab, this course will help you develop the common design language, heuristics, and values that will enable you to build engaging and innovative user experiences that meet the demands of a new era.

Real-World Examples

Learn from the Failures: Google Glass

On paper, Google Glass seemed like a perfect product and an amazing opportunity. Learn how its flaws ultimately opened it (and Google) up to public ridicule.

Moonshot: The Nintendo Wii

After failing with GameCube, Nintendo needed a big win. Learn how they went all in on gestural control and owned the console world for a short time—and what lessons should we take from it.

Moonshot: Amazon Kindle

There were other e-readers on the market when Amazon introduced Kindle in 2007. Learn how their massive backing and philosophy as a services company turned Amazon into a publisher with the Kindle’s introduction.

Incremental Steps: The iPod

The first iPod was introduced in 2001. Today, nearly all of its successors have been killed off by the iPhone. Explore its history and legacy, from the state of digital music devices at its inception to the incremental steps in its development—and what they can teach us in hindsight.

Benediction: The Apple iPhone

The iPhone is the single most successful consumer product in the world, but even when it was introduced, its capabilities weren’t unique. Learn how the company who’s better at elegant and engaging experiences than anyone else made the product unique—and made history.
