1. After viewing the screens, I recommend the following – which I have implemented in the mockups:

a. Use a layout different from than large rectangular buttons (“main menu items”) for a fresher, more modern appearance.

b. Use icons for main menu items to call attention to them and make them look clickable.

c. Develop a color scheme for dialogs that “brands” the application as a Red Hen app – red, gray, black, white.

d. Left-align labels, align all text entry fields, and align pull-down menus for a less cluttered look.

e. Improve task flow where possible so users can perform their tasks faster.

f. Improve menu items names where necessary.

g. If possible, group tasks into categories and display as many of those categories as possible on the Home screen to help user grasp the wide range of tasks available to them and access them more quickly.

h. Provide pop-up Help screens when there is not room for explanatory text in a readable font.

My initial UI evaluation examined the home screen and all screens accessed by the large buttons on that screen (and by large buttons on the Task screen), as well as screens accessed from the expanded menu produced by the ellipses at the bottom of the screen.

2. The mockups in this slide set provide sample screens to demonstrate my ideas. As a starting point, they focus only on the:

Home screen

GPS Details & Point of Interest screen

Setup screen with all its various tabs

Project collection screens

3. The mockups also give you an idea how we might group tasks associated with photos and videos.

Help screen: Pairing

More About Pairing

If you do not see the device you want to select, it may require pairing. Pairing is the process of identifying an external device to your Android device.

You typically have to pair the device only once, and from then on the Android operating system remembers the paired device.

To determine if pairing is required for use, check the documentation provided by the device manufacturer.

When pairing is required, you must enter a 4-digit pass-key (or PIN number) provided by the manufacturer (usually specified in the documentation).

5a

1. From your Android device (phone or tablet), click Apps.

2. From the Apps screen, select Settings.

a. From the Settings screen, look for the Wireless and Networks category.

b. Beneath that category, make sure that Bluetooth is ON.

3. Select Bluetooth to view the Bluetooth screen.

a. Power on the Bluetooth device and make sure it is located within a few meters of the Android device. Also make sure the Bluetooth and Android devices have charged batteries for extended use.

b. From the Bluetooth screen, press the Android device name until this message appears beneath it: Visible to all nearby Bluetooth Devices.

Close

Scroll down to see the rest(see next page)

Help Screen for “Pair” button.

More About Pairing

Close

4. At the top-right corner of the Bluetooth screen, press Search for Devices.

a. Wait for the name of the Bluetooth device to appear in the list of Available Devices and select it..

b. When prompted, enter the 4-digit pass key for the Bluetooth device.

c. Once the pass key is accepted, the device name will appear in the Paired Devices list. The device is now ready to use with MediaMapper Mobile.

5. If you performed the pairing by originally clicking the Pair button in the Select Device screen, you will be automatically returned to MediaMapper Mobile. Otherwise, manually exit the Android Settings screen and return to MediaMapper Mobile.

6. Use the MediaMapper Mobile Settings screens to select and use the paired Bluetooth device as needed, such as for an external GPS Receiver or Laser Range Finder.

7. Power off the Bluetooth device when you finish using it. Make sure to stop access to the device by unchecking its option in the MediaMapper Mobile Setup screens. This ensures that MediaMapper Mobile does not continue trying to re-establish communication with the Bluetooth device, causes unnecessary battery depletion.

5b

Help screen Pairing (cont’d)

Note: It is possible to change the default name of Bluetooth devices when using the Android device; however, we recommend you leave the device name as is when using Media Mapper Mobile. In some cases this allows Media Mapper Mobile to recognize the type or model of the Bluetooth device with which it is communicating.

12

Help screens: Add Manually and More About Devices

More About Adding Manually

Close

Some Bluetooth devices do not broadcast their name and address details, in which case you need to add the device address #Manually. This allows you to enter the hexadecimal code for the device.

6

More About Devices

Close

Selecting a device is only required if you want MediaMapper Mobile to communicate with an external GPS unit, Laser Range Finder, or other Android device. Note: Do NOT select a device if you want MediaMapper Mobile to communicate with Blue2Can devices or with a Bluetooth sensor, such as SensorTag..

If you do not see the device you want to select, you may need to add it #Manually or #Pair it.

Help Screen for “Add Manually” button.

These links take the user to the Add Bluetooth Device Manually screen (this page) and the Android Bluetooth screens (pp. 9-10).

This link takes the user to the Add Bluetooth Device Manually screen (page 8) where the user can actually enter the hexadecimal code.

Home > Setup > Intervalometry

Intervalometry Settings

Images can be captured at regular intervals based on time, distance, or speed intervals.

Intervalometry Mode:

Time Interval (sec):

Time to wait between the capture of successive images.

Specify positive, whole seconds only (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.).

Intervals less than 3 seconds will trigger as quickly as device is capable.

5

Time

Intervalometry Mode:

Distance Interval (m):

Distance to move (as measured by GPS) between the capture of successive images.

Specify positive whole meters only (0, 10, 20, 30, etc.).

If you specify an invalid value, a 100 meter interval will be used by default.

An interval less than 10 meters may cause the camera to trigger unreliably due to GPS jitter and inaccuracy.

100

Distance Intervalometry Mode:

Minimum Speed (kph):

Vehicle speed above which images will be captured.

Specify 0 to capture Photo Burst images regardless of speed.

Specify a value greater than 0 to record Photo Burst images only when the device is moving faster than the specified speed.
