Mobile & Wearable Application Development

Learning Outcomes to be Assessed:
1. Identify opportunities and challenges for mobile and wearable applications.
2. Architect a mobile/wearable application.
3. Select an appropriate set of technologies to use on an application development project.
4. Develop software for deployment on mobile and wearable devices.
Assessment Details:
Title: Mobile and Wearable App Design & Development
Type: Coursework
Style: Presentation and Demonstration of Design Concept and Implemented Prototype
Rationale: This module explores the direction mobile and wearable technologies are taking
and aims to equip students with the essential design and programming skills to develop their
own robust, usable and ubiquitous applications for at least one of the most popular mobile
and smart watch platforms.
Description:
Submission 1.1: A brief submitted (PowerPoint) presentation that will form the basis of a
brief discussion about a Project idea that provides coherence to your Prototype Apps. The
presentation should take five minutes followed up by questions/answers and feedback. This
should include a clear description of your Application idea showing its originality and
novelty [30%].
Submission 1.2: A brief demonstration and discussion of a submitted prototype Mobile and
Wearable Application, particularly illustrating an understanding and systematic approach to
designing and implementing the required features, of particular importance is the inclusion
of data persistence [70%].
Additional information:
Prototype development platform/ IDE: Android Studio

application, including plenty of screenshots to illustrate the workings of same

So im doing a game database that will use data persistence to store game information, user data, using tiles as the main design concept for the software, i need a log in screen sign up that will store it inside of a database prefereably firebase. i need a home page that has access to the users account a search bar, navigation and tiles that can take the user to any specific game doesn’t really matter then those tiles need a second screen to display some bs about the game and then they can add that game to their favourites
which stores in the database as well
