Design Research Unit gets funding from VINNOVA
Ergonomidesign, Interactive Institute's Design Research unit and Sveriges Konsumenter together got funding for one year from VINNOVAs program "Var Dags IT-demonstratorer".
The project is called CHANGE, and will investigate seamless mobile and stationary IT solutions for contextualized visual awareness of one’s personal economy. The aim is to support consumers in improving their financial management sensibilities in a variety of daily circumstances with a focus on availability and usability in situations and contexts where they are most valuable for influencing behavior. CHANGE is expected to start in September 2008.
