I am 26 year-old. I was born in Thailand. I got a bachelor degree in Information and Communication Engineering at Chulalongkorn University. When I was studying in the second year, I started to be interested in design, so I took many design-related classes both inside and outside of the university. I took Certificate Course in Interior and Product Design at Chanapatana International Institute of Design which is a branch school from Florence, Italy. I also took Computer Graphic and UI Design for my elective classes in my fourth year. My senior project was iPhone application that can track restaurants queue in a mall. It can also give users a shortest path from where they are at to the restaurant. This is very challenging because it is an indoor way finding application. After I graduated, I did internship as a web developer for three months and another one as a web designer for a month. This is where I want to take designing skill seriously. My goal is to become an amazing teacher. I also want to open up my own application development company as if to keep me update to technology. I love the scence of be able to solve those coding problem. It really is challenging.

Class name: Time Based Media Instructor: Mark Badger Tool: Adobe Flash Semester: Spring 2013 THESIS ABSTRACT Page 8 THESIS ABSTRACT Wandervation is a way finding mobile first responsive web application. It gives an alternative way to commute due to the steepness of the route. For bicyclists, it allows users to select hill and road type option for the smoothness and safety. It will generate multiple results for users to select. On the map, the route will highlight in color indicators which represent the steepness of each road along the path. Lastly, users can save there favorite results for the future use. Page 9 THE PROBLEMS The hill, landscape of the city, as everyone knows San Francisco is famous for its hills. According to "Hills of San Francisco," published in 1959 by Chronicle Publishing, there are more than 50 hills within city limits. Some neighborhoods are named after the hill on which they are situated. Near the geographic center of the city, southwest of the downtown area, are a series of less densely populated hills. It is really hard to go from place to place in San Francisco without facing one of those hills. They may have a smoother way to go. Page 10 THE SOLUTIONS Provide a way fiding tool for users to find a less steep route. Users can choose how steep they want to go. The route must show the steepness of the route. “There's a hill up into the Haight... It's not that far away, but I don't go there and I think of it as distant, even though it's not.” Page 11 STATEMENT OF INTEREST Page 12 STATEMENT OF INTEREST San Francisco is famous for its hills. According to “Hills of San Francisco,” published in 1959 by Chronicle Publishing, there are more than 50 hills within city limits. Some neighborhoods are named after the hill on which they are situated, including Nob Hill, Potrero Hill, and Russian Hill. Near the geographic center of the city, southwest of the downtown area, are a series of less densely populated hills. Going from place to place in San Francisco by only looking at the map cannot tell which way is more steep than the others. Some people prefer to go for longer distance but less steep. I would like to create a mobile first responsive web application as a way finding tool for people who prefer less steep route than the shortest one. This web application will enable bicyclist users to select the hill options (avoid all hills, reasonable hills, and take me up the hills) and type of route(mostly bike lanes, some bike lanes, and most direct route). This will give multiple results to choose. Results for bicyclist is in 2 miles different from the shortest one. Results for pedestrian is in 1 mile different from the shortest one. Users can also see the steepness of the route along the path highlight in colors indicator which represent different grade of the hill scales from 0-10 %(http://www.roberts-1.com/bikehudson/r/m/hilliness/index.htm#gr ade). For this thesis project I will simplify those down to 3 to 5 colors indicator. Lastly, users can save favorite route to personal favorite page for the future use. Page 13 INFLUENCES Page 14 INFLUENCES Google Bike Map I love the interaction of an application. Page 15 Amarpai This is an open source bike planner responsive website. It is well functional. It combines all open source map provider to a better one. Nike Run This influences me on how the highlight running path in different color indicates the speed of the runner. THESIS PROJECT PROPOSAL Page 16 THESIS PROJECT PROPOSAL Wandervation is a way finding tool that helps ease bicyclists and pedestrians life by generating a route due to the steepness of the road and bike friendly path. What challenge me about this project is combining multiple open source provider to make a better way finding especially for bike. This application will be a mobile first responsive web application because from my survey almost everyone prefer to use smartphone as their first computer. Also, this application is a way finding application so the major use will be anywhere anytime instantaneously. Smartphones have so many operation system and screen size so it would be nice to make it responsive.

It is mobile first because from the survey nowadays people trend to use mobile as a primary computer. Mobile has many operating systems and screen sizes so this is the reason why it need to be responsive. This application can be divided into four parts. Amarpi + Bikesy First, responsive user interface, I will built this using html, css, and jQuery. Second, Google map, I will use Google map API to get the actual map. I will also get latitude and longitude of starting and ending point. This part will also include the path highlight in different color depend on the steepness of the route. mySQL php HTML+CSS+JS+JQuery Third, find a path due to elevation and bike path, I will use Google Eeevetion API to get the elevation of each road and I will write some function using php and javaScript to create route that match with user’s requirement. I will also use open source provider Amarpai to find a bike path route. Lastly, user account to save favorites route, I will use php and mySQL to connect with the database. Tablet mobile Desktop Page 56 THESIS ABSTRACT VISUAL DESIGN Page 57 LOGO Wandervation comes from Wander and Elevation. So I design to have slope as W shape and the circle represents wander way. The reson why I use red color is because this is a way finding application that can use in San Francisco.

After improving from what I get from UX Testing 1. I will take visual design class which I will improving my viuasl design. After improving from what I get from UX Testing 1.5. I will be developing the final prototype. I will do the responsive web prototype testing with 5 bicyclists and 3 pedestrians focusing on mobile. I will give them 3 senarios about the function of the app to test on. This process will be recorded by using Silverback. At the end I will ask some questions about how do they feel about this app, which is the most difficul part to go through, what they like about this app., and what do they think it needs to be change in what way? Page 63 Last quarter of the semester, I will have the improved version of my app. and better visual design. I will do the responsive web prototype testing focusing on mobile and desktop as the same process as UX Testing 1. At the begining of the semester, I will do the last UX Testing. I will do the responsive web prototype focusing on mobile, destop, and tablet. After the last UX Testing, I will improve the app. from what I get from UX Testing 2. The application will be ready to launch.
