Research

During my research I had to make a mind map of ideas on how I could make the sound toy easy to use and function for new users.

I researched some sound toys and games on how gun games work and came across an app that I was inspired by. The link is displayed here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELGIkP14-VA

After looking at certain sound toys online and some applications I decided to make my sound toy with influences from the gun app but make it 3D.

Interaction design is where the interface of a certain object or piece of software is specifically designed to compensate and account for human usability to make the device or piece of software more user friendly and a lot simpler to use. This allows the user to use the software or device with ease and makes it a lot more attractive and easier for a human to come aquatinted with it.

This can be anything from the layout of a webpage to the colour, this all allows the human to interact with it a lot better and this will enable them to like the webpage. If the layout is easy on the eyes and the text doesn't over complicate the brain it makes it a lot easier for the brain to read and understand. Generally the simpler a piece of software or device is to use the more attracted the users will be pick it up and use it and engage with it, we don't want over complicated pieces of software because it scrambles our brains and gets us confused with then wants us to turn it off.

One of the main things to think about when designing a web page is how we humans interact with the web page not only what it looks like but how we think. Especially within text we don't like large clumps of text in giant blocks and if we have to sit through and look at it we don't generally read we scan leaving large sums of the page untouched and sometimes not even looked at. But in some cases a simple designed web page is overlooked if it has good content, if a page provides users with high-quality content, they are willing to compromise the content with advertisements and the design of the site. Again we also have to think about how impatient we are when it comes to surfing the web, we demand instant gratification when on a webpage and we defiantly don't like waiting around waiting for something to happen.
