DSDN 112: Project 2

Navigation Interface
Research

Concept 2

My second idea was inspired from google maps and google street view. Mostly everyone has used google street view before, surprisingly only to view their own house but we all know how it works. It's interactive, you travel through the streets and it gives you full 360 degree images that show you what the location looks like. I thought it would be cool to incorporate this into an app once again for smartphone users. It will be solely built just for uni purposes, and only contain the map within the uni itself. So it will be highly advanced and very detailed since theres only the campus to integrate into the app. Now for phone users, I came up with the idea before that it would be a downloadable app so it doesn't need constant internet access to run. You would start it up and enter your current location and your destination, then simply the map will bring you to where you currently are and show you simple arrows to where you need to go. I have tried my best to photoshop this idea into an image below.


Here I'm showcasing an iPhone user wanting to find the nearest exit of the building, with a 'green' arrow (for go) to show them the way. Images retrieved from - http://www.apu.edu/azusa/about/westcampus/galleryimages/1_West_Campus/duke_hallway.jpg
