We use usability and User Experience (UX) methods to research and evaluate various media: physical products, websites, digital devices, prototypes, software, and even typeface for industry and business clients nationwide and inside Auburn University. The lab is codirected by Dr. Ed Youngblood and Dr. Derek G. Ross.
