Problem space

What’s the problem to be solved? No problem means not much of a project.

1.One of my friends is really shy to talk to others. When she traveled to United States with her friends, one day she was lost in the middle of the street and her friend asked her to take a taxi. But she didn't know how to call a taxi and how to describe the destination. Finally she accidentally met with other Chinese tourists and they helped her. A shy tourist travelling to a foreign country with the language he or she cannot understand is just a disaster when calling a taxi.

2.One day when I called a taxi to the airport, it was 15 minutes late than the reservation time, which almost lead to my missing of the flight. I want to know the approximate location of the taxi and the time it may take to arrive at my place.

3.Sometimes the signal is not good and calling a taxi by phone is hard. But if user can just type in the current location and destination and then user can easily get a taxi, then that would benefit a lot.

4.Security problem of calling a taxi.

Timeline

What’s going to be done when? You can adjust this as you go along, but you must construct it as best you can. Use actual dates and give deadlines.

Research

What have you consulted for prior art and theory that you can bring to life? What user research have you done? What’s informing your design?

User requirements

Write up what you intend to do with your project, from the user perspective (“User should be able to…”)

Metrics and Analysis

What are you going to measure, and how will you analyze it? What’s your stated level of success?

IRB

What’s the status? Not submitted? Submitted? Resubmitted? If rejected, why was it?

Testing and Recruitment

What’s the testing plan? How many participants? How are they solicited?==
