Sharing is caringšŸ! A curated collection of this weeks most interesting stuff. Kickback and enjoy the things the Humblebee Design Team usually only share with each otherā€¦ Iā€™ll try to get this out once a week, but donā€™t quote me on thatšŸ––šŸ½.

Future is Progressive Web Apps (PWA)

Following up on @Mikael Vesavuori interesting talk at Humblebee! About the future of PWA and how it will change the way we use Apps.

Also found a simple summary of what PWA can and canā€™t do on iOS and Android

What impact do AI have on design and architecture?

Archinect.com the design and architecture site has released a 5 series of videos that explore the impact of artificial intelligence on design and architecture. A series of five films takes us through the impact of the AI across the critical stages of a design project. Worth watching!

This is for all sneakers lover

Try shoes Virtually with AR foot recognition! This is WOW. The AR company Vyking is developing this service that let customers try on a pair of sneakers virtually before they make a purchase. Good way to envision what a pair of shoes would look like on your feet. This is currently just a prototype, the Vyking footwear tool is expected to be released within the next few months

Craft Research vs Science Research?

Alan Cooper gives his thought on field research done by designers vs research done by Researchers( PhD-style research). How the kind of research done by designers isnā€™t the same animal as the research done by Researchers. He believes that interaction designer should do field studies, the ethnographic interviews, the contextual enquiry and not by a separate Researchers. Very interesting reflection

Google just made the prototyping much easier!

Finland offers free online Artificial Intelligence course to anyone, anywhere.

The coursework takes about 30 hours to complete and students in Finland can even earn two ECTS academic credits through the Open University. Thouse outside Finland whoā€™ve successfully completed the course are able to receive a certificate to post on their LinkedIn page.

How was that? Share your love and thoughts with me. See you next week with more interesting stuff šŸ™Œ.
