How can we improve the grocery shopping experience for the color vision deficient? (self.Blind)
submitted by humanbying
If you are a person with color vision deficiency / colorblindness, I am hoping that you can help me take this 3 min survey. You may also take the survey if you just like taking surveys :)
The data collected will only be used to look for trends and finding people to interview. I will not share your personal data.
The following is a link to my Google Forms survey:
There is a small Amazon gift card incentive if you are willing to do a 30min interview
$1
I would really appreciate your inputs. Thank you!

Fuck off.
Pay consultants and quit trying to get valuable advice for free.

its all these dumb students wanna do. then when they finish their education these kinds of research projects (or whatever other bullshit they're playing at for their professors) go straight out the window.

The nice thing is that this is for User Experience Design and I will be building an app with prototypes included. This is not just a paper I turn in. This is a project that requires me to get real potential user data in order to build a product somebody is interested in using. If there is strong enough proof of concept, pitching it to become fully functional would cost pennies to a multi-billion-dollar industry.

If I paid a consultant then...
1. The actual users of the tool would not have been interviewed. Asking somebody to explain what it's like being xyz disabled vs actually disabled leads to losing valuable insights.
2. I need enough data from individual users to get a good overview and see what users actually want in the tool
3. Ultimately, this tool is going to the color vision impaired and I am giving an incentive to take interviews. The advice I'm getting is not exactly free.
4. This is for a school project. I don't benefit monetarily. I'm actually losing money.

Not to judge or anything, but there's been issues with people just using this sub as a farm for \*free\* data collection and consulting on many different issues. I get that you're offering a gift card, but a large majority of the people who post here offer nothing, which is very irritating.
Also, disabled consultants for projects like these do exist, but you'd have to pay them.

What's the value of the amz gift card?
humanbying [OP] 1 points 4y ago
Thank you for your question. The value of the gift card is 10$ and the interview will take no longer than 30min

looooooool ok, i'll happily take a $75 gift card for half an hour of my time for your failing research project. It'll probably be a distant memory after you finish school though, as most of you students don't actually give a fuck about the projects you envision (most of you are not even close to being innovators).
Not an attack on you personally, but all of you students who spam this sub looking for pretty much free research as a collective. Most of us are not interested in discussing things with a disinterested research student.

I am not a disinterested research student.
I am Red Green colorblind and my research is based on a problem that colorblind people have distinguishing a lot of colors in the grocery produce section with myself included.
Imagine every time you try to make your own best judgment buying a hammer and receive a mallet instead. That is what buying bananas at the grocery store is like. I can try my best picking out a ripe banana without spots and instead pick out the greenest one out of the bunch. It is very difficult to receive what I intend to get without having assistance.
I do care about this project because it has the potential to improve the quality of life for both Color Vision Deficient and normal vision people
Not an attack on you personally, but I don't have the finances to keep up with your 300k a year lifestyle.
