User testing observations (Round 2):
User 1 (Acting as Arjun):
Observations
- The user got confused with camera controls and navigation controls.
- had some difficulty deciding between camera controls and navigation controls (for first few minutes)
- Even after the first few minutes, he repeatedly used 'Up arrow' for moving forward instead of 'W'
- He was very good with navigating through images.
Feedback
- Loved the idea of communicating a location in an interactive way
- found hard to remember 8 different controls (4 for camera, 4 for navigation)
User 2 (Acting as Arjun):
Observations
- Tried some creative things with location explorer -- tried smartphone like zooming (pinching -- we had to remind him that it's a web based application)
- an 'aha' moment -- "this is f****ing cool! can I save this location view and forward it to my friends?"
Feedback
- Really liked the idea and the design
- He said he would definitely use it if something like this was available
User 3 (Acting as Raj):
Observations
- simple tasks, smoothly done
Feedback
- He said it would be great if he could see which all notes/comments his parents saw (a notification that it has been seen on the other end)
