Abstract
Hospital nurses face many challenges in their day to day work, among them physically taxing shifts, tight schedules and the management of highly infectious patients. The joint research project ReduSys aims to improve the nursing environment by combining contactless and continuous collection of vital parameters, improved remote communi- cation between patients and caregivers, and contact reduced care through the use of robotics. The integration of these systems into the clinical workflow requires intuitive and cohesive user interfaces that allow for quick adoption and efficient use. This thesis aims to define a design language for the ReduSys project, based on psychological principles and existing UI development guidelines, that allows for the creation of intuitive applications. Afterwards, it is used in the development of a clinical nursing dashboard prototype that integrates task management and clinical data sources, and the redesign of an AR control system for the humanoid care robot Roboy. The dashboard prototype was evaluated by observing participants performing a predefined set of tasks and through the collection of their feedback. Initial small scale testing was able to show promising results, but further evaluation is still needed.
