background
QuirkLogic was founded in 2013 with a goal to improve the
everyday by tackling common problems that need technological
advances and delivering simple solutions. The company
approaches challenges with a mix of logic, science, and
creativity. The first product solution developed by QuirkLogic is
a unique product that opens up an entire new market for
eWriters with a 42” Connected eWriter. While this is the first
product in the ecosystem the founders have been innovating
together for years and their teams and solutions have supported
corporations and educational institutions that touched millions
and have been widely recognized. They are excited to continue
the innovation journey with digital inking solutions that help
organizations work more efficiently and creatively in modern
workspaces and get the most from their distributed workforce.
our challenge
Consider the design of entire user experience for this new form
factor. Provide an “it just works” experience that requires
minimal configuration and input from the user. Work within the
constraints of very limited resolution and a black only color
palette. Provide a rich solution within the constraints of current
e-ink technology. Finally, consider how to easily configure some
of the most powerful collaboration options enabled with multiple
boards and remote connections.
project outcomes
Quilla has recently been released to the market. We understood
that this experience was largely a “mobile kiosk” and leveraged
the capabilities of the underlying operating system and the
user’s mental models. The experience of the device is familiar
and intuitive, not unlike most digital tablets. There is minimal
input required for any workflows and most can be accomplished
with simple touch or gestures. The design of the interface has
received exceptional reviews and the goal of “it just works” has
been achieved.
