VISIA® Gen7 is the next generation of complexion analyzing technology from Canfield Scientific. Canfield’s precision subject imaging system, clinical quality lighting and MatchPose® live image overlay continue to change the way skin care professionals work with their patients. The new VISIA Gen7 system captures perfectly registered images of left, right and frontal facial views, and automatically analyzes the images for surface and subsurface skin conditions.

Design

Our design team focused on enhancing the Canfield brand by creating an elegant form with complex surface geometries, a robust assembly with minimally visible hardware, and a recognizable design language with multi-colored, high-gloss RIM molded parts. Aside from modernizing the iconic VISIA design language, this next generation product was developed with special consideration to human factors, ergonomics and multiple use environments. In the cosmetic context, it is important for the VISIA to convey the perception of luxury and glamour. In the context of a dermatologist’s office, the design must carry a clean and minimal aesthetic. In each of these contexts, usability, user interaction and accurate imaging were of utmost importance.

Process

Throughout the phases of development, design and engineering worked together to successfully implement multiple light sources and meet precise camera angle requirements. During this process, the team worked diligently to maintain a balance between achieving the most comfortable head support for the patient whilst abiding to these rigid requirements. This balance of form and function is what makes the Canfield VISIA Gen7 an excellent solution and sets the device apart from competitors in the market.
