Ted Booth / Director Interaction Design / Smart Design
Ted leads the interaction design practice for Smart Design. The teams focuses on designing novel and appealing interactions for a wide range of consumer electronics. Interaction designers at Smart work closely with industrial designers, design researchers, and mechanical and electrical engineers to create enjoyable and satisfying consumer experiences.
He worked at Motorola’s Enterprise Mobility Group before heading to Smart. He got to Motorola through an aquisition of Symbol Technologies.
