It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Gillette, Eileen, O'Brien, Heather L. and Bullard, Julia (2011): Exploring technology through the design lens: a case study of an interactive museum technology. In: Proceedings of the 2011 iConference 2011. pp. 583-590.

In this paper we explore the design of a museum system developed to increase accessibility to and interaction with a museum collection. We conducted a case study in which we interviewed participants involved in the design project, and reviewed documentation that spanned a decade of planning, building, and implementation. The goal of this research is to explore information interaction through the lens of a interdisciplinary team, which consisted of systems and museum personnel. In doing so, we emphasize the human and collaborative elements of design, and the human-to-human exchange in developing technology in the museum setting.
