01 Define
Start with why
The Brainhouse project aimed to address the difficulties ALS patients face while surfing the internet by creating a smart browser with AI features and a minimalist layout. As you may know, ALS is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal chord, causing loss of muscle control. ALS Liga has all kinds of aids at their disposal, but we wanted to add another solution to their offering.
02 Ideate
Generate ideas and concepts
The team brainstormed and explored innovative solutions to design a web browser that would respond to the specific needs of ALS patients, incorporating AI technologies to enhance their browsing experience. The input of actual ALS patients was collected through user interviews and brainstorming. Based on this information, we identified the necessary features for an MVP.
Results
The Brainhouse project successfully delivered a web browser tailored to the needs of ALS patients and individuals with impaired hand functioning, providing improved accessibility and facilitating their internet browsing experience. And our interns? They had the opportunity to make a valuable impact.
