uBikeEnhance Biking Experience on Routing PlanningJones, Sigma, Yu-Chen

Motivation

Bikers need a convenient routing planning tool

Traditional GPS navigation system doesn’t provide enough information for bikers

Approach to the goal

Understanding

Target User: pro bikers

Current Problem: It’s too hard to make a good routing plan by GPS MAP

Simple tracking tool

for bikers

uBikeGeo-DB Routing planning tool

Study

User Study: 2 experienced bikers:Road conditions are meaningful for routing planning- jolt- slope- supplies

Design consideration:How can we provide an useful & simply tracking tool?

Design Focus on UX

Usefulness Our system help user to record road condition, such as

slope, jolt, supply point. His tour data will be shared and reused.

Usability We emphasize on the system robustness and data

automatic recording. User can enjoy his tour without being diverted by the system.

Desirability We have to make people enjoy the enhanced experience

with more biking experience shared from other users.
