Smart speakers lack visible interaction feedback
Users cannot tell whether a voice request went unrecognized or is still being processed.
Three-step solution method
- Define feedback needs for wake-up, recognition, execution and unsuccessful requests.
- Combine clear lighting, text, and audio feedback.
- Compare request recognition and repeated commands across different environments.
Key Deliverables
- Voice status indicators
- Feedback Concepts
- Task scenarios
Verification Approach
Record failed attempts, status confusion, and interrupted tasks.
