Problem
Dermal Science students are required to have in-depth knowledge of the skin, it's various structures and functions, and the effects of cosmetic compounds on these structures. Current course material and study resources lack interactivity, complicating the study of intricate biological and chemical systems and processes.
Solution
Dermal Vide is an interactive study app designed specifically for dermal science students. The study tool offers detailed 3D models of the integumentary system, a comprehensive cosmetic ingredient directory with their actions and benefits, and animations of the cosmetic ingredients being delivered into the skin.
The Process
Starting with researching the current technology used for education and training and their various use cases.
Research on current educational tools and apps available with notes on their layout and functionality.
Using a study scenario to identify the hurdles of studying from multiple sources like textbooks and online resources, often leading to confusion and inability to place the material in context.
- Margot is short on time to study for her final exams
- She is learning about the effects of cosmetic chemistry on the various skin layers from text and illustrations, but since ingredients have different penetration methods and effects, she's finding it difficult to put it all in context
- She's using different sources to try and study the interactions
- She's running out of time and now she's craving KFC drumsticks
