What approach is
used to create innovative communication solutions?

When developing future-oriented communication devices and mobile applications within the UMTS mobile network, the focus is on the needs of the user.

By using system design methods, innovative and user-friendly application possibilities are explored that go beyond simple technical functionality. The systemic idea generation model systematically analyzes user requirements and integrates them into the design of new applications. The “Image Call” is an example of a project that shows how personalized information can be transmitted synchronously with the call setup in order to optimize communication. This application aims to emotionalize the call process and provide relevant information in advance.

A strategic and methodical approach is needed to identify new market opportunities and develop user-centered mobile services. The paradigm shift from a technology-driven to a user-centric perspective is emphasized as crucial for the success of future mobile applications. The results underline the importance of a holistic system design that reduces the complexity of technological possibilities while placing the actual needs of end users at the center of product development.
