Overview

As voice user interfaces (VUIs) continue to emerge as a dominant new user interface, designers are experimenting with voice interaction over the traditional screen based UI. At TribalScale, they’ve seen quick success in the space building on Amazon Alexa and Google Home for brands like the PGA Tour, CBC, and Nascar. Mitch Seguin, head of product and design at TribalScale will walk you through what a VUI is and how to rethink the UI for a non-visual medium. Mitch will discuss learnings in this transition from traditional user interface to conversational interaction and demo some VUI work throughout.
