The Problem
When I started my role at Pulse Fitness, my first project was to take over control of the Console 8 V3 software development. The software had been in development for many years but the strength console - shown here - did not work. The UI was half designed and the function was non existent. My role was to get the system working before the company took the product to their trade show in Germany.
The Goals
Project Research
Discover the pros and cons with the current android APK
Find the areas within the software with broken UX flow
Find the areas in the software that has incorrect or no UI design
Cross reference the original features list with the current software build to ensure all features are present.
Find out what users think of the current software
The Solution
Once an understanding for the work that had been completed, I created new UX Flow charts for the areas of the software that needed work. This was the Main Screen, Menu, Workout Screen and Admin.
After creating the UX Flow charts, I had to create spec documentation for the developers to start the work. Once the work was completed we moved the software into A/B testing, this involved monitoring and testing the features in different situations to make sure the software was stable.
Once various new software updates were complete, the project was signed off for its phase 1 development.
After this I moved on to creating a promotion video for the full ecosystem and product. This was to promote the product at the company trade show and online content.

Promotional Video
Once the product worked fully, I was tasked to create a promotional video for the entire ecosystem to promote the producut to clients. This was shown at the Fibo 2019 Cologne Trade Show.
