The visual code is similar to QR code which may relate to my research.

timer in javacript

In my test, pocket IE doesn't support this kind of javascript.
So I found an alternative brower which is called opera for mobile can support.
Surprisely, they claim opera 9 will have advanced functionality with Ajax and Web2.0.

problem solved

(b)為了處理完全找不到下一個QR code，我們的程式要倒數，所以網頁不能直接轉換到圖片網址，需要留在網頁處理倒數的程式

Wayfinding image stays in the same asp page now.
So I can focus on the count down(use asp language, I guess) on the that asp page.

agenda

1. 部落格上提出 (1) 月工作計畫 (2) 論文閱讀計劃。
In June,
(a)miss QR code and never find another one -> count to time out and send alert to the job coaches or parents
(b)為了處理完全找不到下一個QR code，我們的程式要倒數，所以網頁不能直接轉換到圖片網址，需要留在網頁處理倒數的程式

[paper]The design of a handheld, location-aware guide

Introduction

• access information at different times and locations as you need
• change dynamically during usage
• environment : Indoor or outdoor
• in this paper, indoor
• lessons learnt in in designing a handheld location-aware system
• use IR emitter
• museum domain

Location identification

• WLAN
• Blueooth
  
  • discovery steps(5~10s)
    
• IrDA
• the immediateness of the connection, low cost

Case study

• Marble museum, Carrara, Italy.
• human guides are too expensive
• Design is driven by three main element
  
• Context of use
• JPEG, MP3
  
• SD card
  
• Tasks
• orientation with in the museum
• controlling the user interface
• access museum information
  
• Domain concept and user interface
• The museum
• The section
• Artworks
  

Location-dependent interaction

• IR installed at the entrance of each room
• located on the top the ceiling
• IR beacons send a unique identifier
• App detect and change
• Visual feedback
• Audio feedback
• error, alert and information message

Design criteria for graphical part

• A web metaphor
• Navigation feedback(by color)
• Orientation support in surrounding environment
• Minimize graphical interaction(vocal)
• No redundancy in input commands(resoluation)
  

Evaluation of the application
