  • Patent number: 11875365
    Abstract: Enterprise organizations may use observational data to gather information about user experiences with their products and tools. For instance, patients with kidney failure may undergo dialysis treatment in order to remove toxins and excess fluids from their blood. The dialysis treatment may be performed at a hospital or clinic, or in a user's home, and the enterprise organization may use gathered information to gain understanding of user experiences with their dialysis machines and services. A user experience computing system gathers and processes user experience information from across the enterprise organization. Using stored observation data (e.g., surveys, studies etc.) in its smallest common form, the computing system may use this data as building blocks for creating more complex data objects (e.g. journey matrices and/or empathy gardens) using inputs from multiple different sources, and to facilitate presenting this information in an effective and empathetic way to product developers.
