Abstract

This thesis will explore the possibilities of dashboard technology to gather information and display this in such a way that it will help the user making decisions. Inspired by the idea of what we do is based on what we know the alternatives shown on the dashboard will help us making precedents for the project that is being designed. The multi-disciplinary set up of the program will enable the user to understand the communication between the various disciplines involved, as well as being able to explain others parties why certain choices are made and how the design would benefit from this.
