Inspiration
People drive to their own accord until they get into an accident, so we made an app geared towards a younger audience as they would enjoy the app's gamification. This app aids those to drive more safely, earlier in their life, without having a life-altering event happen.
What it does
It allows users to track their own points and reach the top of the leaderboard, which is comprised of other group members'. Points are accumulated by staying at and under the speed limit, not hard braking, and not using their phone while driving.
How we built it
.NET Maui for IOS development on Windows
VScode as our IDE
Git for version control
Jira for project management
Figma for UI
Challenges we ran into
- Setting up entailed a lot of troubleshooting and didn't work for one of our machines
- The project's scope was too big, and we had to focus on a few things to get done correctly.
- Initially, we wanted to use the Google Map API to help track speed and speed limits within an area. However, after researching and attempting to integrate the API, we learned there were compatibility issues that would hinder its use. Therefore, we are currently searching for a compatible API.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
-The fact that this is our first attempt at a mobile application and we got so much functionality done within the time frame given
-Eventually setting up .NET Maui and get a running start to this project
-Using Project Management skills throughout the process to keep our thoughts streamlined
What we learned
Scope – keep things simple, stupid (KISS) How integral the research & UI/UX process is to a project
What's next for Cruise Control
Groups: join more groups & have more people in a group
Safety: upload images and information for taking Ubers or driving with other unfamiliar people/unfamiliar place
Points: defensive driving classes verified via images
