SENSYS
Probe what remains hidden — with ease.
We have rethought a mobile app for SENSYS — as a replacement for an established enterprise application. The result: a powerful tool for complex field work — simpler, more robust, more sustainable.
Sector
Consumer Products and Services
Principle
Period
since 2020
Initiation
Probing means making hidden structures visible. SENSYS, a pioneer in magnetometers and probing solutions from Brandenburg, makes exactly that possible — from disposal of weapons to offshore investigations. Your Sensys GO mobile app accompanies teams in the field where conditions are harsh, lighting conditions are extreme and processes are complex. But the original application had grown organically over 15 years and was increasingly losing comprehensibility and ease of use. We changed that together.
Challenge
Probing is hard work. Teams are out and about. They must plan, carry out and evaluate measurements — often under the highest requirements. The old version of Sensys GO was functional but complicated. It was difficult for new user groups to access. More users meant more complexity. More complexity meant more confusion. A reorganization was needed, not just cosmetic adjustments.

Our Approach
We started with a foundation that everyone involved shared: a common understanding of users, tasks, and context. Workshops helped to work out personas, user stories, and customer journeys. In doing so, we laid the foundation for a consistent workflow that seamlessly combines planning, measurement and evaluation.
At the same time, we analyzed technical processes and real usage situations. Remote user tests with click prototypes showed where processes stalled and where users needed support. On this basis, a process-oriented information architecture was created that guides users through complex tasks instead of overwhelming them.

The solution
A new interaction concept
We structured the app according to recurring exploratory processes. Planning, measurement and evaluation are linked in logical steps. Users can find functions where they really need them.
Design for use in the field
Extreme sunlight and long measurement cycles place high demands on the display. We optimized the visibility of all content — even in bright light — and developed dark, energy-efficient screen layouts for OLED displays in measurement mode.
Intuitive operation
Simple interactions, memorable processes and targeted use of smartphone sensors reduce training time and make work easier under demanding conditions. An auditory metronome supports approximately the correct walking speed when measuring.
Strong brand image
With a new name and logo, we have laid the basis for a clear brand image. The visual design builds on this and strengthens Sensys GO's identity in the market.

Impact
Sensys GO provides security and clarity. Teams work with an app that understands them. The information architecture arranges complexity in such a way that it becomes manageable. Usability and process understanding are noticeably improved, even in challenging situations and among user groups of different levels of experience.
And the collaboration continues: Together with SENSYS, we are currently working on innovative functions. The focus is on augmented reality assistance in the ARES research project. At the same time, we are driving forward the development of magnetics. In doing so, we are testing AR-based support for explosive probing. And we implement them directly into the application. Practical. effective.
