Description

Sprint 1

We are at the end of sprint 1, a sprint that lasted only 5 days, and had the main focus of developing 3 concepts and 1 prototype, that we will present Monday morning for our coach and the people at TWC.

We started of by brainstorming and looking at our different ideas and concepts, then we choose 3 concepts that we wanted to work on this week, the 3 concepts were chosen based on the different research we have done the previously weeks.

The general idea behind the concepts was to give the viewer more information, but keep it simple and easy for the user. We did not user test our prototype due to lack of time, but depending on TWCs’ response to the prototype, we might user test it and develop it further.

This is our first concepts, and it will be very interesting to hear the opinions of professionals, on what things we did right, but even more important, what did we did wrong, and what we didn’t do at all.

Here is an image of how our concept 3 could look like, a simple sidebar with a livefeed and the possibility of getting different information about the athletes, the rules of the sport, the history of the sport and the different record holders within the sport you’re currently watching.

It’s an exciting app with the possibilities of many different cool features.

If you wanna try out the clickable prototype, click on this link, this is just a clickable prototype, where the possibilities are limited, but by choosing the different elements in the top, you can gather different information about the sport you’re currently watching.

We’re gonna enjoy our weekend and start of Monday with what will be an exciting day.
