ABSTRACT User Interface Design of Digital Microfluidics-Based Biological Sample Transportation System By Hans Lodewik Purba NIM: 13217001 (Bachelor’s Program in Electrical Engineering) There are some problems found in liquid processing. One of them occurs in the fluid intake section, where the fluid taken is not in accurate volume, especially for small-volume fluid, up to microliters order. This issue is happened due to improper use of fluid-intake tools, such as micropipette. Another problem occurs in the fluid mixing section, where vortex mixer and centrifuge can only contain a small number of microtubes, so the students have to wait for 5 – 10 minutes. A DMF-based product that can transport and mix microliters order-liquid is designed to overcome those problems. User interface is a part that allows interaction between the user and the product. The user interface is designed in such a way so the product can be used easily by the students. Keywords: Fluid Precessing, DMF, User Interface
