What it looks like from the air

Line of action

This is a basic idea of how I want my project to run
I don't want to use anything other than the mouse so I don't know how clicking is going to work twice but basically what you do is
-Click to plant the seed
-Keep holding down and moving the mouse to choose the colour of the seed, this determines the colour and type of flower you grow
-circle around the seed to act like you're watering it, this will make the flower grow
-Click and drag the petals to change how they look
-Start again with another flower

Look

I'm not entirely happy with the aesththics but this is how it's turned out
The clouds signify that the persons in the air while they're using it
I've decided to focus on the facebook type stuff as my navigation doesn't involve that much instruction following as the machine takes you to your class so the applications give you something to do/give the first part of my project a little bit of weight.

The video is where I'm going to focus mainly on the way it flys and leaves buildings so my idea will come full circle during this part

For this project I don't want to do something simple and just iPhone app related.

As we are allowed to set out design in the future I think we've been given the opportunity to really get create and design something beyond the realms of today's technology.

The VicPod is a futuristic navigational device that not only tells you where to go but also takes you there in no time at all. On your journey you may catch up on your social networking, your to do list, check your overdue library loans and listen to music synced from your own iTunes account.

The VicPod travels through magnetic rigs above the University to go between buildings and through pedestrian separated pathways on ground level to take you straight to your class.

To login you simply place your handprint on the screen as the VicPod scans your handprint, recognizes you and loads your victoria and personal information. From there you simply pick where you would like to go and relax.
At your destination point you simply step off of the device and once the object feels your presence leave it will log you out.

the initial design

This is what my first design looked like. I changed it because the colours were really out dated and I'm trying to do a futuristic type thing. The pink really isn't working either so I'm going to change it to a more relevant colour.
I'm thinking about putting more futuristic like buttons in but I don't want it to look to intense as I quite like the simple look
