| description | Difficulty in finding the destination around a campus is a common problem
faced by students, staffs and
visitors of a university. Outdated signboards, confusing building architecture and layout, and bad
weathers are just some of the hindrance to find location for people who are unfamiliar with the campus
area. To solve the probl
em, virtual campus tour is chosen because it can also be embedded into a
university website, or use as a stand
-
alone app. The virtual campus tour
app
can help users in visualizing
their journey around campus because it was developed using collections of pa
noramic video footage,
which allows user to watch in 360
-
degree view of selected campus area. Administrative building,
academic blocks and residential college are some of the destinations included in the tour.
A heuristic
evaluation of system usability was
conducted with five
university
lecturers
who
have
vast experience in
the computer science field
.
The purpose is to identify usability problems in the user interface of the app,
by judging its compliance with standard usability principles.
Comments from ex
perts were used to make
refinement before it could be further tested with potential users. |
