PlaybookXR VR App UX & Gen AI Tools
22—23
Timeline: 2022—2023 / 6 months (Part-time role)
Platform: Quest App, Unity
My deliverables
  1. Prototyped in Unity multiple proof of concepts to improve the design tools’ capabilities using Gen AI to generate textures & skyboxes.
  2. Designed locomotion system allowing precision, scaling, fast movement and clear orientation in space while designing XR experiences.
  3. Improved user experience through redesigning controllers and navigation UX, focusing on controller-attached panels & shortcuts.
Unity, Figma, Dall-E API
The whole collaboration was fast-paced, focusing on shipping features quickly, testing through interactive prototypes, and iterating. I collaborated directly with other designers, engineers, and technical artists.

I had to get familiar with the PlaybookXR technical stack, especially when prototyping new features on top of the existing platform.

Jakub is a multi-talented designer with a wealth of enthusiasm and knowledge within the XR space. At Playbook, Jakub bolstered team culture and continuously looked for better and faster ways of doing things as a company. On his projects, Jakub was thorough and often surprised others with the variety of different solutions he designed. His design skills were heightened by his ability to learn new platforms quickly and implement proof of concepts that allowed his work to be tested by other team members.
Skylar Thoams, CTO & Co-Founder
Prototyped multiple proof of concepts to improve the design tools’ capabilities using Gen AI to generate textures & skyboxes.
Problem: Designers spent a lot of time on creating assets outside of PlaybookXR, which makes the whole design process slower, especially when ideating.
Solution: Leveraging DALL-E's image generation API to allow generate images, textures and skyboxes directly within the design tool.
VR Prototype (Unity): Generating images inside of Playbook using Dall-E API
Prototype (Unity): Generating cube skybox using Dall-E API
Prototype (Unity): Generating Textures using Dall-E API
Designed locomotion system allowing precision, scaling, fast movement and clear orientation in space while designing XR experiences.
Problem: App doesn't have any locomotion system. Which limits the users from using the whole virtual space and limits the potential of the PlaybookXR as a design tool.
Solution: Locomotion system containing world pull for short movements, grid overlay to reduce motion sickness, lockable rotation and zoom, teleportation for longer distances, a bird's eye view for orientation, and a quick home function for easy return to the starting point.
Locomotion prototype developed by a Unity engineer based on the proposed design
Improved user experience through redesigning controllers and navigation UX, focusing on controller-attached panels & shortcuts.
Problem: Old controller system design had an overly complex interface with too many panels and difficult-to-access features.
Solution: Redesign of the interface focusing on simplicity and intuitive navigation, incorporating controller-attached panels and button shortcuts to prioritize accessibility and hierarchy of tools.

Garrett Godsey, Lead Product Designer
Using behavior change and healthy habit forming to help users reach their goals and increase user retention.
Key Challenges:
  1. How might we motivate and help users reach their weight loss goals?
  2. How might we increase app engagement and retention?
  3. How might we motivate users to track their progress regularly?
  4. How might we connect participants with others to help them support each other?
Our Approach:
  1. Tested different features that prompt and motivate users to watch educational videos and motivate them to track their meals together with weight and activity progress.
  2. Explored many ways to make the app experience more engaging and fun.
  3. Come up with many different ideas through solid market research, industry knowledge and workshops with stakeholders.
  4. Through ideation and testing have maintained a strong role throughout the process.

Additionally, we've paid strong attention to the community features, which we found to have significant impact on motivation and, in the end, retention. People enjoy being a part of something bigger with other people.
Weekly & daily tasks, combined with notifications reminders and pledges as a way to motivate users and help them create regular habits.
Progress tracking as the way to keep users on track to reach weight goals and increase their data investment, which improves retention.
Mindful eating techniques combined with meal logging helping participants to build the correct eating habits and keep track of their meals.
Providing participants with a community, allowing them to share their progress or ask for support both from the Wondr team and other participants, leading to increased motivation and feeling of tribe inclusion.
Increasing business revenue and helping users reach their goals faster through a primary experience focused on learning and video engagement.
Key Challenges:
  1. How might we increase engagement in the video/learning section?
  2. How might we make the learning process more effective?
Our Approach:
The more classes participants watch, the more revenue is generated by the business model. Watching videos is also strongly connected to success in the program. The more videos participants watch, the more they are likely to succeed and lose weight. The momentum and emotional investment of users have been the key here.

That's why we've built the experience around watching videos and education as the main point of interest. We've explored many possible options to make the experience more satisfying and effective through ideation sessions and prototypes.

Additionally, we've implemented a number of progress indicators and motivating features to help users stay on track and engaged along the journey.
New, higher quality, content focusing on encouragement and engagement leading to a positive overall experience.
Video classes as the main element of the home page, always at the user’s fingertips with a clear progress indicator motivating them to move further.
Supporting momentum by providing next-step feature guiding the users throughout the journey and increasing engagement of all the features.
Personalizing videos to improve engagement and allow users to learn more about what they are actually interested in.
Improving overall user experience and satisfaction through a new visual and product direction supported by strong market research and a new design system.
Key Challenges:
  1. How might we design the app flow and architecture in a way that helps users to perform all their desired tasks faster?
  2. How might we keep the apps consistent across all the platforms and features?
  3. How might we set the tone of voice and design direction in a way that makes the whole experience engaging and fun?
Our Approach:
Improving the overall user experience was our goal at the very beginning, in addition to the new brand. We did not want to just give the app a new coat of paint. Before modifying the previous design and digging into visuals and direction, we identified what was working and what wasn’t through interaction and usability heuristics, reviews and user testing. This, in the end, moved us in the direction of creating an entirely new mobile app.

We've found out that to be able to be competitive in the market and fulfil our users' needs, we have to focus on a simple, straightforward, friendly and encouraging experience across all the platforms.

We've delivered these experience attributes through a minimalistic layout and positive visuals, together with a friendly and conversational copy. We guide users to focus on the positives during their progress and encourage them to improve every day, step by step while being mindful throughout the journey.

To be able to keep the experience simple, we had to keep it consistent across all the platforms. That's why we've, from the ground up, built a new design system which supports this goal and, in the end, also saves designers and developers a lot of time.
A simple and straightforward user interface together with encouraging visuals making the overall experience effective and fun.
Conversational, engaging, and friendly copy helps users feel the human connection that is a major pillar of the Wondr experience.
A new design system helped the team to stay consistent across all platforms and made development more effective, scalable and organized.
Driving engagement from the web to the new mobile app with increased activation, retention and engagement rates.
Key Challenges:
  1. How might we drive more engagement from the web to mobile?
  2. How might we increase the mobile app activation rate?
  3. How might we make the onboarding more simple while more encouraging and fun?
  4. How might we design a new iPad app without a huge dev lift?
Our Approach:
In the process of designing the experiments for the activation section we’ve focused on making the onboarding entertaining and exciting while keeping it short and straightforward.

To be able to create an emotional investment in the users, we’ve emphasized providing context and asking the right questions. This way, we can discover their goals and can prioritize them throughout the whole program experience. We don’t just show them the features they should use, we tell them why they should use them and how they help them succeed.

Through the iterative process we found that user engagement and goal success is much higher on the mobile platform. Because of this, we designed a number of ways to drive users to the mobile experience rather than web, while focusing on making the transition and onboarding to the new platform as smooth as possible.
Custom day-one experience with one-click log-ins increasing the activation rates by a significant margin.
Providing users separate onboarding to more complex features to give them context and make the learning as smooth as possible.
Increasing activation rate through providing an optimized experience to iPad users.
Driving users from web app to mobile app, which has higher engagement rates through different prompts throughout the whole web app experience.

    Meta AR Glasses Core UX Flow, Project Nazare
    23
    What: Led the design of one of the core flows for the 1st Meta AR Glasses.
    Impact: Got an approval from the leadership and very positive feedback up to the VP level.
    I led the end-to-end design of one of the core flows for the AR Glasses, turning a conceptual idea into a tangible solution.

    I had to quickly get used to a new technical stack and design workflow, while cross-functionality collaborating with sound, content & 3D designers, technical artists, prototypers, user researches, PMs, and engineers.

    I had to make sure all the parts of the flow across sound, 3D, content, interaction and UX fit together and the final solution is aligned with the product roadmap, considering hardware & software limitations.

    I presented the project multiple times across the company, getting approval from the leadership and very positive feedback up to the VP level.

    Joshua To, VP of Product Design (Workplace Comment)
    Jakub is a very talented designer. During his internship at Meta working on AR Glasses, he worked very proactively and collaboratively, and always pushed for better outcome, and it really brought the experience to the next level! He demonstrated his solid product thinking and communication skills, and learned our system quickly, and he always found ways to unblock himself independently. Overall, I am extremely impressed by the work he delivered during his internship!
    Shengzhi Wu, Product Designer/Intern Manager
    Observing Jakub's unquenchable thirst for knowledge from expert, his unwavering commitment to producing top-tier work without accepting mediocrity, and his proactive engagement in hands-on Unity prototyping has been truly inspiring during his internship at Meta. Jakub also demonstrated a remarkable degree of adaptability and openness, enabling him to seamlessly navigate complex, constantly evolving, and ambiguous AR design space.
    Haejin Lee, Product Designer
    Jakub did an excellent job at providing context efficiently for his project which helped me onboard quickly and provide feedback. Jakub also balanced well which feedback to integrate versus which to leave out. Jakub's project output was cohesive and represented great product thinking incorporating needs from multiple workstreams, and capitalizing on opportunities to improve what would be delivered to consumers.
    Eduardo Ramirez Holguin, Product Designer
    While we didn't collaborate directly, it was clear to me that Jakub brought both a user-centered mindset, a strong knack for problem-solving, and eye for craft to his work on the new user experience. The project needed to both introduce a first-in-genre product while also dealing with several interaction and display constraints, and Jakub crafted a elegant solutions resulting in a seamless experience. His communication and presentation of work are also top-notch. I hope I get the chance to work with him more in the future!
    Aaron Faucher, Product Design Prototyper
    Amazing work Jakub! Extremely proud of what you've achieved in such a short amount of time during your internship here at Meta and the way you executed and presented your final project was really fantastic! Excited to see what future holds for you :)
