Scrap The Manual

a podcast where we prompt “aha” moments through discussions of tech, creativity, and experimentation to address business and cultural challenges

Concepting, designing, and prototyping to solve
problems and create exceptional experiences

Summary

Technology is an exciting field, but it has its challenges too. For the everyday marketer, creator, or developer, it can often be confusing or tough to keep up with—not to mention filled with buzzwords aplenty that leave people wondering, “So, what now?” That’s why Rushali Paratey and I decided to launch Scrap the Manual. We have a range of episode types to keep things interesting, from "Challenge the Hosts", "Labs Reports", "How Do We Do This?" and more yet to be released. Topics range from The Metaverse to Automotive and Privacy, and everything in between. You can listen and subscribe on Anchor, Spotify, Apple Podcast, among others. Find transcripts on labs.monks.com.

Concept

Use AR to animate instructions right off the page for improved context

AR provides two key features that help users further understand their environment. 1) It puts in augmented content wherever the user holds their phone camera and 2) Provides context in the X, Y, and Z axises instead of just two like traditional mobile applications.

Why this works

Use AR to animate instructions right off the page for improved context

IKEA Assembly is a mobile application that uses augmented reality to place animated instructions into the user's environment.  The little details and context that get lost in a picture can be clarified by the user walking around, moving closer and away from the model, and iconography representing key tools and actions needed.

Lorem ipsum dolor

Another needless source of question marks over people’s heads is links and buttons that aren’t obviously clickable. As a user, I should never have to devote a millisecond of thought to whether things are clickable — or not.

Sit amet elit

Your objective should always be to eliminate instructions entirely by making everything self-explanatory, or as close to it as possible. When instructions are absolutely necessary, cut them back to a bare minimum.
