Interface design for the Hugo™ surgical robot

Overview

During my time at Medtronic, I generated and refined multiple rounds of concepts for GUI features for Medtronic's Hugo™ RAS (Robotic-Assisted Surgery) system, created user flows for all system display screens, developed graphics for user-facing documentation and training, created ISO-compliant system iconography, and developed interactive prototypes of GUI features for usability testing.

My Role

  • Generated and refined multiple rounds of concepts for GUI features for multiple-display RAS system

  • Created user flows for all system display screens in Illustrator

  • Developed and iterated graphics for user-facing documentation and training

  • Developed and iterated system iconography in accordance with ISO standards

  • Developed interactive prototypes of GUI features for use in usability testing.

Setup Guides

Created several setup guide graphics to assist clinicians in understanding how to configure the surgical robot. Below is an example of the types of graphics I helped create (I did not create this specific example from the Spanish language setup guide).

Hugo™ RAS Tower

Improved UX of multiple aspects of the RAS tower UI, shown below.

Bed Map

Ability to view a minimized bed map (right column, above "Messages") without opening up large arm setup guide tab, as shown.

Iconography

Designed ISO-compliant iconography for use in the RAS tower and surgeon interactive display screens.

All icons are ISO (International Organization for Standardization)-compliant to ensure global legibility.
