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.
Hugo™ RAS (Robotic-Assisted-Surgery) system components: arm cart, surgeon console and interactive display, RAS tower
Concepts for GUI Features
In my role, I worked on refining and improving the user experience for multiple aspects of the Hugo RAS tower interface.
Bed Map
Worked on concepts for a minimized bed map in the right column above Messages, giving users quick access without expanding the full arm setup guide, as shown
Arm Setup Guide
Iterated on improving the information architecture for better comprehension
Messages
Worked on adding system message visibility to the right sidebar so that bedside assistants can scroll through system messages from the RAS Tower without opening up the full Messages tab
S-Technologies Filters
Explored interface concepts to change endoscope filters from the RAS Tower instead of just the Surgeon Console
User Flows
Created user flows for all Hugo™ system displays showing each step of the setup process, organized like the below example for the surgeon interactive display.
User-Facing Documentation Graphics
I created several setup guide graphics to assist clinicians in understanding how to configure the surgical robot depending on the type of surgery. 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).
System Iconography
Designed ISO (International Organization for Standardization)-compliant iconography for use in the RAS tower and surgeon interactive display screens.
All icons are ISO-compliant to ensure global legibility.
