- Operation Flow
- As a digital interactive platform, two types of UX design were implemented to make it easier to search by level of understanding of science and technology. The first is the "Mind Map", a logical search, which allows users to logically find ideas by concept from the academic disciplines linked to the various laboratories. Another is the "Illustration Overview", where you can search using visual language, and even if you don't have a lot of expertise in science and technology, you can find ideas that interest you through illustrations.

Design Interview about List of Innovation Seeds Digital Interactive Platform
The experience with COVID-19 has given humanity the seeds of innovation in many fields. Before the problems are solved and the seeds are forgotten, we have created a list of concepts and ideas for future research.
Utilize the seeds of innovation gained from the COVID-19 experience as a list of concepts and ideas for future research.
To put the seeds of innovation into practice and innovate.
It took about a year from research visits to various laboratories to holding workshops using Innovation Seed List.
During the coronavirus pandemic, we all came up with a project to deal with the coronavirus and implemented it.
During the coronavirus pandemic, we considered the best ideas and actions to take.
The created communication is for the general public who are not familiear with technology.
What makes this work stand out is that it incorporates an easy-to-understand and user-friendly UX (illustrations and list viewing functionality) for an online list.
I named it the "List of Innovation Seeds" to be as clear and direct as possible.
D3.js was used to provide an easy-to-use list browsing function.
Illustrations are used to explain each innovation seed.
For this project, we collaborated with a number of research labs at the University of Tokyo, as well as with popular children's book illustrators.
We were able to create a great, enjoyable UX by using a program that specializes in visualization.
We did design research into collective intelligence to do interdisciplinary collaboration.
Other works have won the A'design award in the past.
