Sound Tripping Alexa Skill

A first for me, I got to work on the Voice User Interface design and documentation for an Alexa skill called Sound Tripping. The idea behind the skill was to be able to take users all over the world through audio collected from some of our 360ยบ video shoots as well as other collections. This was a fun project to work on, designing a completely non-visual user interaction was out of my wheelhouse, but I learned so much. I think this is an important field for designers to gain experience in, and will no doubt grow in the future. We got feedback from partners at Amazon on interaction design which was helpful, as was creating sample audio flows and mind-mapping. A detail from a flow is pictured below.
