Application Prototype (Figma)

  • Navigate here to find the prototype sketch for the application.
  • Navigate here to find the working (demo) prototype model of the application.

Abstract & Motivation

We aim to build a clean and aesthetically pleasing measuring application, which uses relevant sensorsto convert raw sensor data into human readable formatted outputs, and finally display them as accurate measurements. We have taken inspiration from how iOS has its own exclusive app to measure dimensions. Though Android possesses the capability to house in the same set of features, there is no such official app for the same. Different applications are required to deal with different dimensions. Hence, we have tried to make it all possible by creating a single application to measure different dimensions.

Core Functionality

The app we aim to build does exactly what it reads i.e., measures. The core principle of the application is to make use of all sensors built into the phone by default. The app provides users with a vast variety of dimensions to choose from.

The different options provided are:

  • Compass: Accelerometer and Magnetic Field Sensor
  • Light sensor: Ambient Light Sensor
  • Stopwatch: Programming Code
  • Dimensions (height, width): Linear Accelerometer Sensor

Tech Stack

The tech stack that we aim to use throughout the course of this project is as follows:

  • Kotlin - Core programming language for business logic
  • Java – Unit and implementation testing
  • XML – UI/UX elements

We also aim to use Figma to design a basic prototype of the application and then proceed with the development of an MVP.
