Google: Project Skate

After the success of skateboarding at the Tokyo Olympics, Google partnered with Nakatomi and 14-year-old skateboarder Sky Brown to introduce a revolutionary AI technology to the half pipe. My role in this project involved collaborating with Google and Nakatomi to design a unique and playful user interface that showcased this innovative technology.

The idea for the UI was to deconstruct each trick into its chronological components. As the AI identified a specific movement, it would display it on the screen. After all elements were quickly recognised and assembled, the name of the trick would be unveiled.
