Life Log
A colleague sent us this article, where the computer legend Gordon Bell discusses how we may someday (soon) capture our entire life digitally. He recognizes that the technology is progressing so quickly and affordably that having a "searchable and ultra-detailed memory" is quite possible.
QuantiView is based on a similar premise.
Here is the full article. |

One camera, or two?
Most QuantiView studies can be executed with excellence using a single camera. However, as we continue to work with clients we are envisioning applications where a second camera could add another layer of detail.
Some recent examples...
| Application |
First Camera |
Second Camera |
PC and non-PC homework habits among teens
|
Zoom of computer screen with special lens to account for monitor brightness
|
Overhead view of entire work area |
| In-classroom teaching effectiveness |
View of teacher and whiteboard/front of class |
View of students to measure %Viewing vs. % Snoozing |
| Food consumption |
Zoom of refrigerator/freezer to show food in and food out |
Wider view of kitchen |
In addition to the examples above, imagine any situation where the utmost in procedural, usability detail is needed. QuantiView can provide 360° wrap-around high-definition views of just about anything one can imagine. |

Retail Effectiveness
Retailing stategy, display hardware, copy development, etc. is a multi billion dollar industry answering the common question of "what is the best way to present our products & services at retail to make them sell?"
Effectiveness is often measured very coarsely by simply understanding how much was sold. This obviously is a very important measurement, the most important measurement actually, but wouldn't it be great to understand more detail?
- What captured attention?
- What created action?
- Who was drawn in?
- What types of interaction occurred at retail before purchase vs. non purchase?
Quantiview finally gives a true vision of retail effectiveness. |

Some of us have been using this handy scheduling tool. Essentially you can post appointment slots online and people can choose among them. And then you get an email notification and the appointment shows up in your Outlook calendar. Costs just $30 per year.

Executive Immersion
Been a while since the blog has been updated ... been busy building the company out.
Had an interesting application from a client the other day that deserves a brief mention though and that is the idea of doing a QuantiView study as a way to get executives "immersed" into the consumer reality.
It is tough to get an hour of an executive's time, let alone have them attend a focus group or in-home interview, so why not show them a condensed summary of a QuantiView summary!
