About the project
Mach develops autonomous off-road guidance systems for agricultural machinery, widely used in modern large-scale farming. Field operations are planned, monitored, and managed through a dedicated application.
My role focused on designing the interface for configuring the mechanical settings of tillage implements. These adjustments depend on multiple variables, including the crop being planted and the specific characteristics of the field, and require a high level of precision. The design challenge was to translate complex mechanical adjustments into an intuitive digital experience that could effectively support both experienced operators and less specialized users. To help users identify the correct parameters, I designed a simplified schematic representation of the implement, highlighting its adjustable components. Each adjustment is controlled through a digital instrument that mirrors its real-world counterpart: a protractor for angle adjustments, a depth gauge for working depth, and a pressure gauge for pressure settings. This approach leverages operators' familiarity with traditional measuring tools, creating continuity between their physical workflow and the digital interface while reducing cognitive load. At the same time, the interface provides clear feedback and precise measurements, enabling accurate adjustments and reinforcing users' sense of control, confidence, and reliability throughout the configuration process.
