Bad Usability in Road Dividers

Look at this Picture , Road divider has no reflector to indicate that there is Divider and the height is also more, number of accidents occur due to this reason, Many NH roads have the similar problem.

Consider a scenario when the driver is coming at a good speed in that road during night time, the road is smooth and there is no divider or anything so he continues to go with the same speed or more, suddenly he sees a divider which is only a few meters away from him and he could not stop or slow the vehicle finally he ends up with an accident which is similar to the image above.

If there is a reflector in the divider or board he would have seen that much before coming near to the divider and avoided the accident.

Usability in T.V Remotes

Why most of the T.V Remote doesn’t have a indicator or marker in the Number 5 button

All other devices like mobile phones, Keyboards, Landline Phones has a indicator or marker in the number 5 button to easily identify for the visually challenged People.

There is a serious need to have an indicator in TV remotes, when compared with the sighted people the visually challenged people don’t watch TV, but "There is always a possibility for them to listen to news, conversation, or music on TV."

Even when the sighted people use TV remotes during night hours and when the light is off, often there is a chance of pressing the button 2 or 8 instead of 5.

Consider a scenario the user is watching the T.V during night hours and he want to change the channel to his favorite channel which is in channel number 55, he have a chance of pressing 85, 52, 25 for pressing 55.

So it is mandatory to have an indicator in the number 5 button in TV remotes.

Look at the size of the power button, it is of same size of the number buttons, they have changed only the color to green, there is a chance of pressing button 1 or instead of pressing 1 you may end up with pressing the Power button.

The size of the power button can be made larger when compared to number buttons.

Reverse Cardsort

In this method we present the list of categories in the Information Architecture and a list of selected items in the site's content and asking the participant to palce where each item can be found in the list.

By this method we learn:
User's mental model of how they expect content to be organized
User grouping of what item's most user's grouped together
Whether the structure suports navigation
Whether the label makes sense to users.

Reverse cardsort can be done in face to face UT, In a remote UT, By email.
