Hi Adelaide,<br class="">
This is an exciting project!! <br class="">
<br class="">
At first I had a hard time getting around the prototype just
because a lot of features (buttons) aren't clickable. But then when
I saw the green squares it helped me get around.<br class="">
<br class="">
I really like the symbol circle. To choose the rotation. I have
something similar in my program SignWriter Studio. Just to let you
know that it´s intuitive for many symbols but not so much for
others, that´s why for some symbols in my program I just show a list
to choose the rotation, but of course being in a circle doesn't
really make it any worse for those either. I really like how the
circle appears afterward and is a big space saver on the screen.<br class="">
<br class="">

<br class="">
The T9 like completion looks great. <br class="">
<br class="">
You should try modeling your prototype with a more complex hand
shape than the flat hand. If you were to use an open 5 hand where
you can see the thumb and baby finger you would see that you would
need 4 more buttons for the left hands (rotations 9 through 16)<br class="">

<br class="">
Wish you the best<br class="">
<br class="">
Regards,<br class="">
Jonathan<br class="">

I'm Adelaide, an italian student of graphic design in Urbino. For
my master thesis I've designed a mobile user interface to writing
in SignWriting and I'm looking for some feedbacks, can you help
me?
New mobile technologies allowed me to create a personalized
keyboard with SW glyphs, and I would also add the prediction text
technology (like t9) in the application, to complete faster the
writing of the signs and to organize the glyphs in two dimensions.
It's very hard to explain my thesis project in few lines, sorry!
Unfortunately I'm not a programmer so my prototype isn't fully
working, you can only write a word: house. So I ask you trying to
write “house” with my application and than tell me if you'll
notice any problem both in structure and in design. The
application is designed for iPhone for this reason some icons will
be more familiar to iOS users, but it will still be testable for
everybody.
This is the link of prototype: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://invis.io/AJ23UG0U8">http://invis.io/AJ23UG0U8</a>
That's gonna take you just a few minutes to help me out with this
testing, and I will be very grateful if you could!
Thanks a lot in advance,
Adelaide Imperato
