Sketch Ideas for learning game for young children

Another idea would be to create a small maths learning game for small children. The theme would be insects and you would have a ladybug guide. You would be able to travel different areas of the environment to access different games such as adding, subtracting, counting and times tables. Here are some sketch examples of some game ideas:




Sketch Ideas for a tourist application

Here are some sketches of some ideas I had for creating a virtual enviroment for tourist.



The first one involves the user being able to walk around a virtual tourist help center in which they can go up to different desks to enquire about different things eg. Hotels, Maps, Travel, the nearest toilet etc.




Each desk would have a helpful tourist information avatar talking to you and giving you info. The menu system would be easy and simple to use









Another idea was to have a application which would help show you what to do at airports such as directions and how to check in etc.
































Group exercise and brainstorming

How can an interactive media system be used to offer assitance to travellers in an unfamiliar enviroment such as an airport?


Here is the brainstorming we did that day:
