Series 5
What if the key to unlocking the potential of space wasn’t just in the technology itself, but in how we design it for people?
In this episode, host Dallas Campbell explores the surprising and critical world of user-centered design with experts Giulia Bencini, Vasant Chari, and Tim Dudas. They discuss how this approach goes beyond engineering, focusing on creating the right solutions for real-world problems.
The conversation highlights how listening deeply to users, from farmers to city planners, and testing ideas early can translate complex satellite data into tangible, beneficial applications on Earth.
