PROJECT S1

Project 03 – Weather Apps

First of all, I went to study the types of bicycles, so as to know which types of people riding bicycles are divided into.

I divided the bicycles on the market into the following four categories:

  1. Common people who instead of walking

2. BMX cyclist

3.Cross-country cyclist 

4. mountain cyclist

Then I investigated several weather factors that affect cycling.

  1. Superior accuracy whenever and wherever you need it. Get worldwide weather updates at home or away.
  2. Be prepared for any serve weather event with Accuweather’s real-time alerts.
  3. Don’t get caught in the rain! Realfeel technology tells you the different between how the weather looks and how it actually feels.
  4. Go beyond your local forecast. Accuweather provides a daily snapshot of vital stats. From dew point to UV index, visibility, allergy, precipitation and air quality reports, all the information you need can be accessed directly via the app.

PACT

Since the uploaded file is compressed, it may not be clear, I will explain step by step below.

PERSONA

Based on the above second-hand survey and pact analysis, I made two personas.

SKETCH IDEAS

Roughly-rough Wireframes

The first is the login interface. After clicking on it, the user can choose simple mode or professional mode. Office workers who just use bicycles to travel can choose the simple mode, because professional functions such as radar are not needed, which will cause difficulties in information extraction. If you are a professional cyclist, you can choose the professional mode. The professional mode is equipped with radar, wind direction prediction, map search, emergency shortcut keys, and voice broadcast during riding.
