Innovated watch - Smart watch


This is a new innovated wearable device that could become more famous in the future ----Smart watch. We will use this innovated concept in our snake game assignment. It is implemented with an OS inside the watch, we can use it to watch video, listening song, and even capture photo! That's cool! But there is a limit in the screen size because it is a "watch", the display will be small. innovated watch - smart watch

1st Group assignment: snake Game

Our second discussion was held at 13March2013 (Wednesday).
We were there to discuss about the group assignment which given with the tittle : game of the snake.
The group assignment which required all of us to understand the the interface of the snake in mobile phone and computer, and then we must do comparison, pros and cons, designing after we enjoy the game provided.

First of all, we took several time to understand the assignment's requirement. We discuss, look for the website link related to snake's game and also some important keywords like "shareable, tangible and wearable". We did do the separation work to each other, this is to lighten our works at the same time.

For the cons and pros, we decide to compare snake game on mobile phone and snake mania (referance: http://www.oneonlinegames.com/games/snake-mania) .
