Detailed Specification

Design brief

You have been commissioned to write a report and create a prototype for a new interactive product for leisure motorbike riders, of which some features may need to be used while riding. The basic brief you have been given for the product is that, 1) it should enable users to use (gps) navigation to ride to their intended destination and track their rides, and 2) provide access to their favourite music and allow them to listen to music during their rides.

The scope of the interactive prototype should be limited to the above mentioned two main areas, for interactions that may take place on the motorbike as well as off the motorbike. You are asked to create a proof of concept for the interactions of this system to see if users find it usable and desirable. The basic brief is open for interpretation, and you can and should design desirable interactions as you see fit based on your background readings and your research activities.

Interactive prototype

You need to create a mid-fidelity prototype of the application that enables people to experience at least the core user journeys that are available in your application in an interactive manner. This prototype should be developed in Axure RP10, unless agreed otherwise with the module leader.

You are required to describe the conceptual design and provide a description and visualisation of the product and its components and interactions in the report. You need to submit an interactive digital prototype demonstrating the interface and interactions of your application and explain how one interacts with its components.

Your design and research activities need to be in alignment with your target group and justifications for all your assumptions and design decisions need to be provided

Report

In the coursework report, you document your research and design activities, and the required future research study and other future work for the product. This includes a review of relevant literature that informed your design, a discussion of the conceptual design for the product, and a discussion of how design principles will be applied. The report will also discuss your (design) process of developing the interactive mid-fidelity prototype and how relevant HCI theory has been implemented. A plan for an empirical research study should be proposed to investigate a research question or hypothesis, and the conclusion should also detail other aspects of future work required. More details can be found in the assessment criteria below. You may also want to consult the annotated table of contents available on the COMP1649 Moodle page to help you structure your report.

Your report needs to be professionally and academically written and structured, based on your own research and reading, and written by yourself using appropriate in-text citations and referencing. This includes the demonstration of English language proficiency, appropriate level of detail, professional formatting of the report, and the writing should be supported by at least 8 relevant academic references (journal papers, conference papers, academic books - not blogs or online tutorials etc.). 3 References and in-text citations should be formatted in Harvard style. If the submitted work exceeds the limit by more than 10%, marks will be reduced.
