Task
Plan of Attack
As a passionate skier, I analyzed Carv's product and proposed integrating its AI capabilities into a smartwatch to enhance the user experience. By focusing on user-centric design principles, I addressed the limitations of Carv's features on a smartphone while skiing. This solution aims to provide real-time feedback, personalized coaching, and improved accessibility for skiers of all levels on smart watches.

Instruction without your phone
I identified a gap in Carv’s innovative digital ski coaching technology: the absence of smart watch integration, which would enhance accessibility for users on the slopes. I proposed developing an AI-driven smartwatch application that offers real-time feedback, personalized coaching, and health monitoring.

To ensure user-centric design, I outlined a plan involving user surveys, usability testing with various skier levels, and studying existing wearable tech solutions. I also designed a wireframe prototype and evaluated the interface against usability heuristics, ensuring the design supports effective skiing performance analysis and coaching.
Results
An a-Grade Avalanche
This project received an A grade from MIT AI professionals. This evaluation played a key role in earning my certification in Building and Designing AI Products at MIT.

While the project hasn't been implemented yet, I have reached out to the Carv team to explore its potential development.
