Project 4: Prototyping & Evaluation

Image
Prototyping and Evaluation Introduction The proposed application is named "Jom Pergi! (JOGI)" - a public transport-integrated e-hailing app. The motto is 'Joyful Operation, Great Infrastructure'. It is an improved all-encompassing e-hailing app that integrates the existing public transport infrastructure with improved usability in regards to costs, transport options, pinpointing, and navigation. The app is also available in multiple languages for international users. The solution achieves SDGs 8 (Decent work and Economic Growth), 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). The three tasks evaluated were Task 1:  Book an E-hailing service, Task 2: Check Traffic Situation, and Task 3: Using the cashless payment options. The evaluation was done on three types of users, User 1: , User 2: University Student, and User 3: Person unfit to drive (colour-blinded). Testing for User 1 was handled by member Nicholas Cho Jian Hong, Tes...

Conceptual & Physical Design Storyboard Task 1: Comparing real-time traffic situation Storyboard 1: Comparing real-time traffic situation Task 2: Booking an e-haling service Storyboard 2: Booking an e-haling service Task 3: Using the cashless payment option Storyboard 3: Using the cashless payment option Alternative Designs – Crazy 8 Alternative Design 1 – Khor Yong Hao Alternative Design 2 – Tan Boon Huie Alternative Design 3 – Nicholas Cho Jian Hong Alternative Design 4 – Chee Wei Jie Voting Results Final design: Final design: Blue are design choices, Green are metaphors Justification Design choice 1 clearly shows the name and symbol of the app, allowing the users to clearly identify that they are currently using the app and assure them of its legitimacy. Design choice 1 has a logo that has a figure that resembles an ‘X’ while the ground consists of the app’s name, JOGI, following the Gestalt principles of figure and ground.  Design choice 2 is a simple and clear in...

Project 2- Establishing Requirements

Task analysis and User Observation In this section, we will be testing 3 different E-hailing & Navigation services for our task analysis which are Grab, Maxim and Waze, from 3 different users and observing their actions. These applications provide a similar experience and solutions to what our app may propose, which is "Jom Pergi! (JOGI)" - a public transport-integrated e-hailing app. Our three target users are University students on a tight budget, Travellers unfamiliar with local transportation systems, and Residents unfit to drive which in this case is colour blind. When the three of our target users use the applications and execute our tasks, using the thinking-out-loud technique we can obtain insights into what to set for our design requirements. Our tasks include: Book an E-hailing service Check traffic situation Cashless payment options Task 1 : Book an E-hailing service User 1 : University Student https://youtu.be/ujmfR-JS_OI User 2 : Traveller https://youtu.be/zu...
