The Challenge
Can we Research better with emerging tools and technologies?
Research work usually tends to repeat without the opportunity to learn or might be hard to document, and visualize the research data through data visualization techniques
This project mainly aims at emerging tools and technologies like Artificial Intelligence(AI), Machine Learning(ML), and Natural Language Processing(NLP) which has the potential to aid or enhance the work of researchers or the entire organization.
The Insights

Time
Management
When it comes to design, researchers admitted to excessive time consumption. But in the hindsight, they seemed to appreciate the extra time.
Delivery
formats
Designers and researchers have maintained the conventional approach to delivering a report. Clients would love different formats which are more powerful.
Knowledge on Resources
There is a struggle to share and seek help to identify the tools and methods used in specific contexts
The Solution
A Tool kit of emerging technologies
The “Pain-Tool” map
I was able to identify the emerging tools in the vast field of AI, NLP, and ML and relate to the struggles of the stakeholders to create an interactive map where it can be crowdsourced for depth and expanse.
