Driving Questions

  1. How to turn the things that I'm interested in into design themes.
  2. How to transform design themes into products that meet users' needs.
  3. How can products integrate with new technologies (AIGC).

Project Introduction

Disciplines/Subjects: User Experience Design, Product Design

Key Themes: Interest-driven, Mobile-end products, AIGC, Innovation


UX design, as an applied discipline, is constantly evolving due to technological and social developments. The aim of the "AIGC at hand" project is to enable learners to focus on the cutting-edge trends of technological development within a specific period. Through designing AIGC products, while getting to know new technologies, they can deeply understand and learn to apply how technologies serve daily life, achieving an effective connection between knowledge and practice, and cultivating their acute perception and practical ability in technological application.

The theme of the project is open but with certain restrictions. During the project implementation, learners can deeply explore user needs in the fields they are passionate about and transform these needs into services of mobile products. The crucial limiting factor is that AIGC technology must be used. Moreover, the integration of technology and product should not be a rigid and forced insertion, but rather a natural and smooth incorporation into the product design, effectively enhancing user experience and product value. For example, the "Journey" product created by learners - specifically serving the particular scenario of multi-person travel among young people, based on the AI large model, helps users jointly customize personalized travel itineraries and plans. Because the product precisely targets user pain points and enables the skillful application of AIGC technology, it has received recognition from enterprises and school experts.
