Concept Digital Drivers license
The Challenge
As time has gone on and technology has improved drastically, the
physical drivers license often feels like an outdated form of identification
that lacks clarity and convenience for users in a tech heavy world
The Solution
A digital form of a user's drivers license that makes every experience
convenient, ensures security, and eliminates the worry of losing an
important form of identification
Timeline
5 weeks
Research
Data Minimization
All physical driver's licenses require a reveal in personal information such as one's address which can often feel insecure when an ID is requested in a non government related setting.
Lack of Security
Physical forms of identification are far more susceptible to being stolen and forged; along with this, acquiring a replacement form of identification can cause stress and hiatuses in a user's lifestyle.
Cluttered Design of Licenses
The current Maine driver’s license features a large amount of illustrative elements to it. The type is differentiated by color but the typographical hierarchy and organization is very messy. When reading through a Maine driver’s license, the text is very small and takes lots of effort to read
The Target audience
Maine ID being a piece of technology that needs to remain accessible for all demographics, I needed to take into account people's needs from either side of the spectrum and account for both of their frustrations and goals
Style Development
Maine's Visual Identity
One of my goals was to create something that not only fit in a formal
purpose, but also represent Maine's culture and identity. So I created
two inspiration boards, one for color and aesthetic and one for design
style and layout
Design Iteration
Final Screens
Reflection
This project really taught me about the importance of design iteration
that no matter the number of iterations that are done, there is always
a way you could improve upon the last.
I also learned a lot about creating an interface that condense a vast
amount of information to the confinements of a phone screen in a way
that legible and created hierarchy.
