Načrtovanje mobilne aplikacije za izposojo fotografske opreme

Žagar, Ajda (author), Javoršek, Dejana (mentor)

Namen magistrskega dela je bil načrtovati in oblikovati mobilno aplikacijo, ki bo omogočala izmenjavo fotografske opreme po načelih ekonomije souporabe. Visoke stroške nakupa in vzdrževanja fotografske opreme bi fotografi lahko nadomestili z izposojo in s posojanjem opreme ustvarili prihodek v času, ko se s fotografijo ne ukvarjajo aktivno. Po pregledu obstoječe ponudbe in izvedene analize z anketnim vprašalnikom smo ugotovili, da sta na trgu potreba in želja po izposoji fotografske opreme. Na podlagi ankete smo izdelali persone, žičnati model, shemo strukture strani in oblikovali aplikacijo s poudarkom na načrtovanju dobre uporabniške izkušnje in uporabniškega vmesnika. Z interaktivnim PDF-om smo na vzorcu desetih ljudi izvedli testiranje aplikacije z omejeno funkcionalnostjo. Rezultati so pokazali, da bi bilo aplikacijo za izposojo fotografske opreme vredno izdelati, saj je 77 % fotografov mnenja, da obstaja potreba po izmenjavi fotografske opreme in 60 % bi jih aplikacijo tudi uporabljalo. Večina fotografov pogojuje uporabo aplikacije z rešenim vprašanjem zavarovanja opreme, kar bi nudilo višjo stopnjo varnosti in zaščite uporabnikom. Rezultati testiranja aplikacije so pokazali, da sta oblikovna zasnova in uporabniški vmesnik skladna s pričakovanji uporabnikov. Uporabniška izkušnja je bila ocenjena zelo dobro; uporabniki niso imeli težav. Na podlagi pridobljenih rezultatov sklepamo, da je bil uspešno izveden celotni načrtovalni proces izdelave aplikacije za izposojo fotografske opreme.

• Title: Design of a mobile application for photo eqiupment exchange

Abstract

The goal of the masters’ thesis was the development and design of a mobile application for photo equipment exchange based on the principles of sharing economy. The idea was to supply photographers with expensive equipment, and enable maintenance to rent equipment and make a profit, or borrow equipment from other users and thus reduce costs of photography. We conducted a market analysis and a poll among the target group to confirm that there is a need for photo equipment exchange on the market. Based on the results of the poll, personas, wireframe, site schematics and design of application were made with an emphasis on user interface and user experience interaction. An interactive PDF was made and application with limited capabilities was used for testing on a sample of ten people. Based on the results of our research, 77 % of photographers think there is a need for photo equipment exchange and further 60 % think that they would use a mobile application. The vast majority of the photographers think that rental services should be covered by insurance that would be an integral part of the application, as that would mean fewer risks and more safety for the users. Testing the application with finished design and user interface showed that it is compliant with the expectations of end users. The users commented the user experience and had little to no issues with the designed task. Overall, we can conclude that the process of development of the mobile application for photo equipment exchange was successful.
