FIRST PROTOTYPE
It's finally time for me to code my first prototype of my app. After Ewan and Chris' feedback I decided to create a small prototype that would allow me to test live the video fonction of the app. So I coded an app on my phone which uses my phone's camera to show a live video. And on top of the video I added buttons with a 50% opacity. Those buttons are the ones to supposedly collect the data but this is not actually working on this prototype because the point is to test the filming part of my app.
The guys from my handball team played a game against St Andrews today and it gave me the opportunity to test the app on my phone during the game. I quickly realised that, as Ewan and Chris thought, it is not really working. It is not possible to keep a fixed camera on the game while collecting data. And since there is gonna be a lot of data to collect I don't think the video idea is going to work. The video framing was really terrible and not exploitable.
