1.5 User Research

✓ TASK

Your team will conduct user research by interviewing potential users (or other stakeholders) for your robot concept. The interviews will be an opportunity to better understand the users' needs and expectations by verifying: what tasks your robot could perform for the users, and how users might expect the tasks to be performed.

Analyze your interview data to create a persona of a typical user/stakeholder for the robot, which will help inform and guide your design process. Here are instructions that explain personas and describe a process for interviewing users to create a persona.
