Visiting guest/ project discussion

Feedback from guest about project:
  • Not a cool piece if this is not a LIVE data
  • Think creatively
  • Idea too constraint 
  • What if can get live data underwater?
  • Let's say if everything is possible, think creatively and ideas for fish id. eg: user take photo underwater and straight away get the information? underwater can use internet? call data out underwater?
  • Mask camera? push a button straight away get the fish details?
  • Recognition today is still improving, people are exploring about recognition, FB has face recognition
  • How bout an installation piece? fishes swimming around, user get the feeling underwater, using photo to take picture and get the information\

  • Before idea was user snap a picture underwater and straight get the information. Problem: cannot get internet underwater. Solution: build in database. Question: diver pay a price diving and get information down there? taking time to read in this 45mins diving time? Solution: Decided to do an app, which user can upload a picture taken underwater, and get the information after diving/snorkeling. 
  • I was very worry about the programming part because I never learn about Java scripting, so i do consider a lot and try to figure it out about the fish recognition first. Perhaps now i couldn't download the software and trying to figure it out find solution to solve this main problem first. (After i can solve a problem maybe I can do similar idea like Instagram, user can upload their photo to show friends and followers. )
  • LiWen was giving a hit for the idea which can do a installation piece, and also live data. Using projector to project the whole picture of underwater, fishes swimming around and user can use the app to snap a photo and get information. This is a good experience for user, who are not diver or who interested in underwater! 

*I would definitely consider the installation piece (everyone can interact with), but firstly i like to solve the scripting of fish recognition!
