Scenario:

A technology company is developing a smart home system for elderly users. However, initial
user testing reveals that elderly users struggle with:

1. Navigation & Interaction Challenges – Difficulty in using sliding layouts and small
buttons.
2. Cognitive Load Issues – Increased mental effort due to complex icons and unclear
visual hierarchy.
3. Voice Interaction Problems – Misinterpretation of voice commands due to accent
variations and unclear prompts.

The company has asked you, an HCI expert, to redesign the interface using evidence-based
recommendations from the research paper “An Empirical Study on the Influence of Smart
Home Interface Design on the Interaction Performance of the Elderly.”
