Intuitive Approach to an Interactive Tutorial for the VirtuScope

Hsiao, K (2018)

The rapid emergence of AR led to many contemporary designs aiming for engagement such as AR storytelling and interactive tourism applications. The VirtuScope is such a device that merges these concepts to revolutionise the traditional binoculars stands that can often be seen in locations for tourism. This report documents the process of researching an intuitive approach to design a tutorial for the VirtuScope so the device and its interactive functions can be more accessible to the general public. With a focus on finding ideal visual elements and engaging ways to provide guidance for potential users utilising tools such as storytelling, a final framework is devised based on the user evaluations of the mobile prototypes dedicated to explore each element that forms an effective interactive tutorial for the designated platform.
