Scoreboard Redesign Project
 
I am a student at Ball State University and I am doing a project to redesign a portable tabletop scoreboard and I would much appreciate it if I could get some personal feedback on my conceptual designs which are on the following image.

  • What scoreboard do you think is best (for use of multiple sports, easy to read, appropriate features, portability)?
  • Of the scoreboard you picked what features do you like and dislike about it?
  • Of the scoreboard you picked would you add/remove/change any features about it?

C appeared to be the easiest on the eyes. Frankly the others look cluttered and difficult to decipher at first glance. Participants are going to want to know the time more than the other data so it is crucial that be the most visible and easy to pick up.

That being said, for a table top design, its going to be the tallest of those shown.

Hope this helps.

C is definitely easiest to read.

Agree with the others...C, followed by B.
Good luck.

You need to get rid of the orange background behind the numbers. You need to make the time a different color than the scores.

Good work.

That is one thing that would market yours differently from the rest. Most scoreboards/clocks have the same colored numerics throughout.

C is best. I'm going to assume this is for Rec league, intramurals, etc. If so, I would get rid of everything outside of time, score, and bonus (perhaps a very obvious AP arrow between time and score). People who run clocks at non-varsity events don't know how to run clocks. In my experience, they aren't going to use any features not absolutely needed.
