Won the Excellence Award at the Korean Society of Design Science's College Student Design Academic Conference / Industrial Design Department students

On November 2, at the Korean Society of Design Science (KSDS) Fall Conference, held at KAIST in Daejeon, students from the Department of Industrial Design at our university, Jeon Da-bin, Kang Hyun-soo, and Yoon Eun-seo, won the Excellence Award for their paper, “Visual Information Research and Service Proposal for Improving the Work of Personal Cargo Truck Operators.” In addition, students Lee Yeon-woo, Lee Yeon-ji, Han Seong-jun, and Kim Hee-on won the Excellence Award for their paper titled “Visual Information Research and Service Proposal for Improving the Work of Personal Cargo Truck Operators” at the DSUS (Design Studies for University Students) held at KAIST in Daejeon on November 2.

 

 

 

 

 

Students Jeon Da-bin, Kang Hyun-soo, and Yoon Eun-seo conducted a project to solve the pain points that occur in the middle mile process of truck operators who transport cargo offloaded from containers to the distribution company's warehouse during the first semester of their User Experience Design class and presented it as a paper at the conference. For the research, the students conducted face-to-face interviews with transportation companies, accompanied them on their routes, or conducted user diary research. Through this, they discovered vivid pain points such as it is difficult to determine the amount of cargo to be loaded with text alone, it is difficult to know the waiting time for entering the vehicle in advance, and it is difficult for new freight forwarders to learn the professional terms and tasks of freight forwarding. To solve this problem, we created a prototype and conducted repeated usability tests using it, and finally developed a user interface for the loading app that is easy for even novice cargo drivers to understand, and proposed a smartwatch for delivering electronic receipts.

 

“I started the project with an unfamiliar topic of freight transportation, so I was worried and excited at the same time, but I was able to solve it in a fun way by applying design methodologies,” said Jeon Da-bin, a student who participated in the competition. I put a lot of effort into field research and wanted to emphasize that process, and I think I was able to achieve good results because I was able to convey that point well in my presentation and thesis. I would like to thank my grateful teammates and the professor who guided me.”

“The results of the semester class were good, but it was a meaningful time because I was able to experience writing a thesis and get more advanced design results while working on a project outside of school. There were many difficulties as we filled in the gaps with the team members, but the process was fun and the results were good, so I'm glad I participated.”

 

“We needed to fully understand the problems in the field, and to do so, we tried to deeply understand the perspective and needs of actual transporters through interviews and other field research,” said Kang Hyun-soo, a student at Seoul National University of Science and Technology who took classes as a credit exchange student. Before the end of this year, I hope to contribute to the transportation industry by working with a mobility company to continue the actual development process. It was a meaningful experience to grow with my friends at Kookmin University in a new environment.”
