WAACS is specialized in the development of smart home products and connected devices. Over 30 years of experience for renowned brands makes us experts in connected devices and UX designs. We help companies in many different ways by creating design strategies for both existing brands and start-ups. At the start of every project WAACS helps to ask the right questions and dig deeper to truly understand user experience. With these insights, we come up with meaningful solutions that go beyond existing trends, beyond the “new-to-be-new”.
Indoor ecosystems and energy-saving solutions
With a holistic approach to each new development, we combine advanced technology with an appropriate user interface and apply it where it matters most. We have been involved in the development of solutions for the perfect indoor ecosystem with a focus on clean air and ventilation and smart water systems. In addition we implemented new technologies for efficient food storage to reduce waste for Groupe SEB/Emsa. Together with start-ups we created energy-saving solutions from home automation and indoor garden systems.
Health connected devices
WAACS creates new market opportunities by translating user insights into concrete product ideas. By visualizing concepts we help managers, marketeers and engineers to jointly create new strategies. Solutions that have been visualized were easily prioritized from ‘low hanging fruit’ or ‘quick wins’ to mid and long term developments (to even dream scenarios).
We have successfully applied this method to a variety of products. For MedTech company Medisana we developed the Smart Target Scale. By mapping out the user journey we laid the groundwork for the product and user interface design of this type of app connected personal scale.
