Tour of New 3M Usability Lab
For May, we're going to take a tour of 3M's newly remodeled usability lab.
Newcomers to usability will get to see how 3M uses its lab for conducting usability tests. Experienced practitioners will see some new testing equipment including TwinView - a software suite developed locally to facilitate the testing process. As always, there will be ample time for networking and sharing information.
We also recently added a "literature table" to our meetings. This is a table where people are invited to share any resources, literature or other information they would like to make available to meeting attendees. Feel free to bring copies of any job openings, product information, announcements or other information you'd like to share.
