My team ended up doing a service which functions as a hub for people concerned with the topic of deafness or hardness-of-hearing. The service is build upon social local networks, which facilitate information sharing within Deaf communities. It supports the existing, rich culture with tools which connects hearing, deaf and hard-of-hearing people on a local level. By providing a web- and a mobile app, it makes it easier for people to get in contact and take first steps in this diverse world.
This video shows some of the impressions of the meetings that do already exist and our service makes more people aware of.
One result of our project was a detailed blueprint and ideas how a mobile and a web touchpoint could work and look like.
As the project was sponsored by Microsoft, we took the chance to look into the styleguides of WindowsPhone applications.
To see more details on the project, pleas check back on my portfolio this summer :)
