Mobile Check-in (Appear) This is a mobile passenger check-in application that I designed for the Windows Mobile software platform for finger friendly ruggedized devices. Primary users will be airport ticket agents at remote locations away from the airport, in order to check-in passengers before they board the shuttle to go from the remote location to the airport terminal. Speed and of course ease of use were the main focus areas when designing this application.

Android Camera Application (SEMC) These are samples of designs for a next generation camera & video recording application running on the Android platform and created for Sony Ericsson’s new line of Xperia mini™ Android touch screen phones. The idea behind the designs was to limit functionality and make a camera application that was simple, easy and fun to use and took great pictures. Focus was purely on creating a great user experience without all the in your face functionality.

Side Project – Home Screen Concept These are screen shots of a design concept for a mobile touch UI Home Screen application. This is a concept were the user would long press on the screen and application shortcuts would sneak in from the sides of the screen as panels, to give a preview of where the user would be taken if they selected one of the panels, or what is currently happening in that application i.e., artist and album currently playing in the music application.

Side Project cont. - Contacts These are screen shots of design concepts for a mobile touch UI application for contacts. The first screen is a contact list with social

networking updates for your contacts at the top, followed by most contacted/favorite contacts, with the full contact list starting after that. The second screen is showing a contact that has been selected (long pressed) and the actions that are available to take on that contact. The second screen also shows an easy way to tab between applications at the top of the screen, which would replace the social network updates.

Side Project cont. – RSS Feeds These are screen shots of a mobile RSS reader touch UI design concept. In the first screen you have the list of feeds that you have activated. The second screen shows the scrollable list of feeds in the selected feed group. The third screen shows the view when a feed is tapped and expanded and the options/actions available for that feed.

Side Project cont. – “Camera roll” These are screen shots of a “camera roll” mobile touch UI design concept. In the first screen you have the photo stack in the lower right corner, which when tapped, opens the “camera roll” slide bar at the bottom, where the user can easily flick to scroll through photo thumbnails. The user can slide their finger across the slide bar fast, or slow in order to see a preview of the images they have taken during the current photo taking session.

iPhone Side Project These are a few screen shots of an early concept for an iPhone application I designed, that lets you see and browse through all the geo-tagged photos you have stored on your phone, based on where in the world you took them.
