Abstract:

This paper examines the process and benefits of user centered design as a research methodology and the key takeaways and findings from using the methodology to redesign a public transit ticket vending machine interface. By observing riders interacting with progressively more refined prototypes of the interface, listening to their feedback, and understanding their pain points, the researchers identified insightful ways to facilitate successful transactions on the ticket vending machine and ensure positive outcomes for the redesign project, the region’s transit agencies, and the public.
