RECOGNIZE QUALITY FROM THE METHOD

The choice of cutting-edge working methods allows us to optimize development times and start building a project's success right from the start. For this reason we pay particular attention to the usero oriented design and analysis (Human Centered Design, HCD) in all project phases in order to achieve high levels of UX / UI.

HARDWARE AND DESIGN

The process of designing hardware components for an IOT system involves the following development phases:

PHASE 1 - CUSTOMER NEEDS ANALYSIS

In phase 1, high-level and expensive acquisition sensors are used to identify the quantities of interest. Ex. National Instruments (NI) acquisition systems.

1.1
Diagnostics customer needs analysis and definition of project specifications.
1.2
Acquisition system preparation. Physical quantities big data collection for analytical study.
1.3
Data analysis according to the project specifications. The focus of this phase is the definition of the necessary physical quantities for diagnostics.

PHASE 2 - HW SPECIFICATIONS FOR FINAL ACQUISITION SYSTEM

Definition of the Cost Effective specifications of the final acquisition system. The system must be manageable and serviceable by the customer.

PHASE 3 - HW CUSTOMIZATION AND ALGORITHMS

  • Control of physical dimensions.
  • On-site data pre-processing.
  • Aggregated data.

PHASE 4 - FW DEVELOPMENT

The algorithms for data pre-processing are transcribed at the FW level on microcontroller.

RAD - Rapid Application Developement

The SDLC methodology applied by MOKO is RAD, Rapid Application Developement. Essentially, RAD is the "test before buying" approach applied to software development.

“The theory is that end users can produce better answers by looking at a real system rather than working strictly with the documentation alone.”

RAD-based development cycles result in a lower level of rejection of the application when it is put into production.

The end user can work directly with the final formats as if it were in production: this leaves little space for the imagination and many errors are captured using this process.

To avoid looping request <-> responses, the development team does not use a pure RAD approach but rather harmonizes limited use of prototypes in project and project development.

Developed prototypes are specifically focused on one part of the application and do not provide a comprehensive integrated interface.

Human Centered Design - HCD

Particular attention is given to Human Centered Design (HCD) in all phases of the project in order to reach high UI / UX levels.

1
Definition of personas and scenarios of use, to be shared with the development team in order to expose the types of users and their interaction methods with the application.
2
UX monitoring through appropriate surveys in design, development and release phases; Survey results are analyzed and shared to validate all work phases.
3
Testing on prototypes in development. The results will be presented by means of a special report showing the number of participants and their characteristics, tests, success rate, list problems with related priorities.
4
Verify logical navigation structure.
5
Pre-release functional test.
