Notes for 2008-09-02 

  1. Possible ideas:  create a google map for the campus, silenting the phone when in class and when in the location where the class is held.  Can also do this for meetings and instead of silenting the phone, you can create alarms and notifications.
  2. Google calender add-on to the schedule.
  3. Another potential idea is adding on the nextbus to when you'd take the bus and where to you take the bus.
  4. Find out which databases are accessible and which ones are available.
  5. Information about the UNC Campus.

Things to Research and Do:

  • Google calender API and API of google maps, Program about radius (finalists) - Sasa
  • One person needs to figure out whether there's a database available for the location of school buildings (GPS location to be exact) - Andrew
  • Someone needs to find if there's a publically available place for bus stops - Hila
  • Send Diane a note about what we need: need to send her a email about who we need to contact.

Notes for 2008-08-26

1. Check out COMP523 2007 project virtual tour. MIT open source.

2. Start with visually impaired or the sighted? different requirements.

3. Visually impaired: minimal graphics and interaction with the cell phone.

4. How to get started? Try to ask visually impaired students what they need from the device.

5. The Android phone: a lot of buttons. What's the benefit of this being on the phone?

6. Contact Diane Brauner.

7. The compass is important. The GPS might reconize the wrong direction much later than the compass. How sensitive is the GPS? See which one is faster to correct the wrong direction.

8. Start with downtown Chapel Hill: bus, reservation, points of interest. 

9. Voice recognition: Where do you want to go? make it interactive.

10. Construct simple and distinct graphic for non-blind.

11. Think small.

Diane's advice:

a. Go for Visually impaired users.

b. Question: How to initiate. Would probably be the hardest question.

c.  Figure out what we can use on GoogleMaps. Define an application that could base on GoogleMaps.

Build on other Google DB and services and pull everything together to deliver to the user.

d. Make the connection with the content: The application has a lot more to offer than GoogleMaps.

Questions to answer

1.  The Concept:

2. Who are the users: At least teenagers.
