Mobile Augmented Reality for Spatial Navigation:Video Prototype

Video has been used in this project to produce an elaborate simulation of how the navigational aid will work. Using the information gathered from the previous iterative cycles the final concept for the navigational aid has been showcased through video. The timeline follows Scenario 1, the same that has been used for the iterative cycles.
Video is a flexible tool for capturing the use of an interface. It is useful for live or staged interactions. They can showcase an interface or be used to learn how users interact with the interface. Video prototypes do not need to be realistic in every detail, but should give a good idea of how the finished system will work. (Mackay, 2002)
Video is used to show the concepts, and visualise what the interface will look like before the final system is produced. It is highly regarded as a tool to prototype technologies that do not exist yet. Strong feedback can be gathered from a video prototype. (Vertelney, 1989)
Using Final Cut Express HD9 a demo of the navigational aid has been produced using guidelines from Mackay (2002) on how to produce a video prototype for visualising the interaction:
• Make mock up of prototype
• Follow the scenarios for the timeline
• Begin shots with title cards to keep the story clear
• Keep the video short
• Film over the participants shoulder in order to see the full interaction
