HUMAN INTERACTION & INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

UI testing and hardware integration 

Iteration & Prototyping

Product Goals: To work between software and hardware teams to demonstrate UI and device functionality for designers, developers and engineers.  Iterative prototyping helps identify areas where the designers may need to consider alternative firmware or hardware components.

What We Made: 1000+ optimized scene files for iOS X stress testing. Created a process for UI animators to push creative boundaries without thermo throttling the device gpu.  

Result: Gracefully smooth iOS finger gesture functionality on dozens of features resulting in more on-device functions.

Automated Screen Capture for global language versions

OS Application

Product goal: Shorten the wait time for customers in Non-English speaking countries who have to wait before they receive assets in their local language. 

What we made: An Apple-specific application that enables Apple’s internal-build devices to auto-generate screen captures in multiple languages pixel perfect without any humans in the loop.

Results: Apple’s internal engineers have estimated that Chapeau’s app supports >87% improvement in the process of creating GEO-accurate device captures over Apple’s current workflow.  We turned a 24 day wait into 3.
