The User eXperience Research (UXR) Lab is a new collaborative undertaking between the Design Centre and the Health and Wellness Research Centre at Algonquin College. The Lab will address an emerging need for both Centres and the College more broadly, in providing external clients conducting applied research collaborations with the college to access a methodology to enhance the marketability of their end-products through enhanced user experience. The Design Centre has an already established expertise in user focused design, but lacks the specialized equipment to formally assess usability and user experience. The recently established Health and Wellness Research Centre has a focus on advancing medical devices and technologies and in particular the emerging area of mobile medical technologies for which usability and technology assessment are particularly critical in terms of patient safety. This proposal will bring together the hardware, software and collaborative communications technologies needed to foster enhanced user experience research.

用户体验研究（UXR）实验室是设计中心和阿尔冈琴学院健康与健康研究中心之间的一项新的合作项目。该实验室将满足两个中心和学院更广泛的新兴需求，为与学院进行应用研究合作的外部客户提供一种方法，通过增强用户体验来提高其最终产品的适销性。 设计中心在以用户为中心的设计方面已经具备专业知识，但缺乏正式评估可用性和用户体验的专门设备。 最近成立的健康和保健研究中心的重点是推进医疗设备和技术，特别是新兴的移动的医疗技术领域，其可用性和技术评估在患者安全方面尤为重要。 该提案将汇集硬件，软件和协作通信技术，以促进增强的用户体验研究。
