Week 08 Standup One

Each of us have to write a short (and I mean short) description of what we said at Stand Up One

Awais:

User Testing:
Conducted ethnographic study of the coffee cafe context where people's mannerisms, gestures, ergonomics of sitting, spatial considerations were observed in relation to the coffee table. Used this to develop User Interface iterations of the coffee table in relation to how people generally sat on the table.
Academic Survey:
Reviewed multiple interactive table designs including the Drift Table, Microsoft & AT&T's Surface, Wacom's interactive inputs and multiple study on using artefacts to augment interaction on such tables.

Jonathan:

Learning Unity. Deciding whether to use 2D or 3D. Came to the conclusion that both were the same and for simplicity's sake we would use Unity 2D. Gathering old PHP files to reconstruct for this prototype.

Coding multi-touch screen interaction, it is proving too hard to handle.
