What are you looking at?


Jackpot was designed to help keep casino goers stay safe during this pandemic. This interface helps enforce social distancing within the casino by making the players schedule reservations for table games and poker. Eliminating the unnecessary bystanders around tables.

Process


To kick start this project I made a list of things dealing with Covid and the struggles people are facing every day. I wanted to make an application that would keep people safe and healthy. My mom had called me a week before this project and told me she got Covid from the casino she went to. This inspired me to create Jackpot. 

I did a competitor analysis on casino websites and apps, but this was not very relevant to my project because none of the casinos I researched had a reservation system in place. So, I also analyzed apps that reserved seats at restaurants. I found that text alerts and coupons were a way to make this transition easier and more worthwhile for the users.

I then started designing low fidelity wireframes. These were changed many times in order to get an interface that was easy to use. I wanted the user to spend a maximum of three minutes making a reservation. In order to achieve this, I had to simplify the interface and make the instructions explicitly clear. I created a user scenario to help evaluate areas that needed to be improved on.

Once all the kinks were worked out in the low fidelities, I started adding color to make this casino kiosk look inviting. Originally, I wanted it to be Vegas themed with neon signs and bright colors. After testing this design, I realized it took away from the purpose of the kiosk and was very distracting. I decided to go back to my research to rethink my audience. From my reach I discover the majority of the casino users are male. However, I created a pink, tan, and green color scheme because I wanted the minority female audience to feel more comfortable to sign up to play poker and table games through this interface.
