Coherent Labmax Pro. 2021
We redesigned, redeveloped, and reconfigured the Labmax while creating a fresh new design language for Coherent from the ground up. We analyzed the core use-case of the Labmax product and did a deep-dive into the entire lab-oriented laser measurement device market. This helped us identify the key issues and problems affecting users of these products and fed into our brainstorming and ideation sessions for the Labmax. It also helped the project leadership at Coherent focus on the design concepts that best fit their customers’ needs, solved their customers problems, and offered the greatest amount of functionality.
