3. Introduction
“Create an innovating interactive display”
Unique content
New way of interacting
Appropriate Input device
Appropriate hardware
Appropriate Operating Systems
Appropriate base software
Handle people’s fear of technology/technically challenged people
Create a prototype
7. Interaction

13. Web vs StandAlone Application 2/2
Use
StandAlone
instead of
Webapp
Harder Design Creation(1)
Against Convention (2)
Portability (3)
Content Maintenance(3)
(4) Easy integration of APIs
(3) Easy Extension of Radio
(5) Modularity
(5) Scalability
(3) SW Maintenance

Hi, present yourselfPresent background, as programmerSoftware one of the most important parts of the projectDifference between good UX and a bad one, secondsPresent the process
DDS Requirement, most importantExplain each bullet point
Or, to rephrase it …..
I will be taking about …
AggregationModularity
MMT are as innovative as they getThey liked the ideaAlmost unique explained
Good reason why is not largely usedMake it shortStill “experimental” technology
Say about cameraWhy we used Kinect nowWhy not in the future
Paul details
Android and Apple related excluded from startOther are less popular, less supportOS to power it
Eather go that way, or the order wayPros and Cons
We used a nifty toolTppicaly, web is used is a fullscreen windows(with flash)Against convention = coloring outside the lines
easy title, contains also technologically challenged Analytical approach(q)/actor approach(interview) New field, not so many informationWhat is now usedExtrapolate gestures from smartphones/XboxFuture survey: observe people’s reaction
Planning - Analytical approach(q)/actor approach(interview) MRS = observation & research for othersObserving tech, Extrapolate gestures from smartphones/XboxObsprague airportTech path = info from tech related sources => tech exists, features possibleUser path = we not doing Idea, concept, design, just test if it workingNew field, not so many informationFuture survey: observe people’s reaction
Best info sourceHuman interface guidelines from MicrosoftTake position to start as bad exampleMoves to be used: Wave,Take and move, Dismiss, Swipe, Circles, Underline
Seen at the beginningFocus prototype – only a few featuresSince Kinect is not going to be used, it works will suffice
Overlap milestone with Scrum iteration end
Seen at the beginningRelate to first project model of working
Great team effort, I am cracftsmanFirst time focusing on process not goalWished to do it moreStakeholder gave the green light for forward developmentSoftware put on backburner, just basic
