Design ChallengeTo use mobile and/or social technology to influence five individuals to apply sunscreen daily social technology
Time limit: Nine days

Savior Skin
Persuasive Purpose
Industrial Design
To persuade five or more members of Stanford’s Men’s Varsity Tennis Team to apply sunscreen daily
Stanford University, Spring 2010CS377v - Creating Health Habitshabits.stanford.edu
User Description
Stanford undergraduate men’s varsity tennis team members who do not currently apply sunscreen daily
They are likely:o 18-22 years oldo Mobile/Smart phone
owners and comfortable w/ technology
o Active and fit (likely concerned with health)
o Frequently outdoors and exposed to the sun
o Part of a teamo Engage in regular
practice/training routines

Alexander Clayton at Tennis Practice
Alex gets to practice and the team begins its daily warm-up
During the warm-up Alex takes out the bottle of sunscreen, applies it, and passes it to a teammate
Alex is on his way to tennis practice On his way to practice Alex receives a text message Alex opens the text message – and can’t stop laughing at the hilarious sunscreen bottle image.. He remembers the bottle of spray sport sunscreen he packed in his tennis bag today
After practice Alex gets a text message asking him if he applied sunscreen at practice

Prototype of Savior Skin• Selected users receive visual text
message 20-30 minutes prior to practice
• Users open text message and see a comedic visual reminder to apply sunscreen
• Users receive text message after practice – “suncreen today? (y/n)”

Features/Functionality
• System sends a visual and “sticky” text message reminder to apply sunscreen, 20-30 minutes before practice
• During an existing team practice routine (stretching, team huddle) selected individuals apply sport spray sunscreen and pass the bottle to their teammates
• After practice, users receive a text message to track compliance

Theoretical Justifications
• Persuasive Strategieso Builds upon an existing habitual routine (daily
practice)o Uses a timely triggero Leverages inherent social behavior (one individual
applying sunscreen triggers others to do the same – social proof)

Results of User Testing
Stanford University, Spring 2010CS377v - Creating Health Habitshabits.stanford.edu
Shortcomings of Design
• Not every user will have a mobile phone capable of viewing photos
• Trigger is not at the exact moment an action can be taken
• Sunscreen application may not integrate well into current practice routines

Expansion - What else is possible?
• Other form factors or ID possibilitieso Use text-only trigger system
• Other features and interactionso Integrate weather or UV information with text message

Next Steps in Design Process
• User test with similar target users (athletes)• Find and learn about automated texting services• Create additional humorous trigger images
