Week 3...Lets Get Technical!

Working with the Touch-Screen Remote...

What's Inside?
In order to run programs that use Excel and video, the touch-screen remote for this "ideal" closet is going to require quite a bit of memory. 4 GB/s of RAM is a decent amout of memory for the remote to run all its application smoothely. There needs to be enough memory to run largers applications while still leaving excess memory to prevent the remote from stumbling across and mishaps. The remote will also come equipped with a memory card. The purpose of this card would be to hold other memory instructions dealing with the photos of the clothing within the closet.

What's Outside?
The outside of the remote will include two ports/connectors. These connectors will both be type A universal serial bus ports (USB 2.0). The connectors will be used to keep the remote charged, as well as share its information with any other device it is connected with. Other devices (camera, Ipod, etc.) can also be connected and read by the romote as well. Also, the remote will be equipped with speakers, so that music and video and be heard.

What do I see?
The pupose of digital video is significantly intriguing for this device. Video will be used when showing the owner various outfit choices. The different outfit choices will appear on an avatar version of the owner. Once clothed, the avatar will be able to spin around 360 degress and walk back and forth in order for the owner to see the full effect of the outfit. This will all be made possible by using Adobe Flash. Along with showing the avatar movement, Adobe Flash will also perform other tasks dealing with movement (text, graphics, etc.) on the remote.

It is Good to Know What You Are Working With!
