Methodology
Our flow chart starts with a welcoming screen. Next and by using fiducial symbols, user will be able to move on to the next screen. This screen will show a picture of an animal and asks you to find out the name of this animal. If you get it right, you will have the chance to move on to the next screen where another animal picture is shown. At the end you will be thanked for your participation.
Below is the flow chart of the main ways where the user takes actions to move between them:
Start
Show fiducial symbol
If fiducial symbol = 1
Show animal image
If fiducial symbol is matching
Try again
No
Show fiducial symbols 2-6
Yes
Scores = 1
Show animal name
Do you want to continue?
Yes
No
End
Target group
* Children * Age range 4-7 Design and usability considerations * Game * Tangible User Interface * Educational * Fun and engaging Designing the prototype
For this project to be done, we needed computer or laptop, webcam, Processing and Reactivision programs and fiducial symbols.
Below are screen shots of our game: Screen 1 – This is the introduction screen that will be displayed once the game is run.
Screen 2 – If you start the game by showing the fudicial symbol 1 to the camera, a screen with a cat image will be displayed asking you to match the animal name to the displayed image.
Screen 3 – If you get the right answer by showing the fudicial symbol 2 to the camera, a screen with a cat image, the correct answer (in this case the word ‘CAT’) and a (Well Done !) message will be displayed.
How the game will be played
The game is based on tangible user interface. It is educational, fun and engaging and
