Graffiti board
Background
We wanted to enhance sharing notes internally on video conferences. There some external options that didn’t meet our need internally, or we couldn’t get past security limitations to save and share the work. There was also the limitations to how we could connect devices to the meeting so one person in a meeting room could share their drawings.
Process
I was the UXer partnering with the engineers trying to figure out what we had to work on technically to help users collaborate better. I explored what did the general screen looked like, how do you choose an app, and how to save.
Remote app
A mobile app was the first way we could figure out to enable saving your session to your account. It wasn’t perfect, but it was progress to solutioning.
Outcome
At the same time Jamboard team was coming up and creating their product. Ultimately we merged teams, our engineers went to work with them to enable the internal corporate systems and devices. Jam board launched as a part of Google Workspace and Google Meet. It was sunset in 2024.
I didn’t move to the team, because I had other responsibilities and the Jamboard team had a UX team and an industrial designer.
