Experimental teaching is an important practice for institutions to develop high-quality personnel, it is an important way to consolidate and deepen students’ understanding of theoretical knowledge, to train students to identify problems through experiement, analyze issues and solve problems. Virtual simulation teaching platform relys on virtual reality and multimedia technology, it integrated a variety of interactive hardware and software, providing simulation of the real scenario. It help to save the teaching resources to, share teaching facilities and improve student interest of learning, improve students’ practical operation capability. Peopeo served Mainbo Education Group, designed and launched a easy to use virtual simulation laboratory, transferred a large number of physical, chemical and biological experiments to the digital whiteboard.

The Challenge:

Different subjects have different experimental methods, and different terminology. If all these are moved to the digital whiteboard, and allow users to simulate realistic experimental, and have real life experience for the operational procedures, equipment operation, tools, and so on. All these need to be carefully and smartly designed, so they are easy to understand, easy to operate, and users will not have to learn a new sets of operating logic and language.

The Solution:

Through in-depth study of various subjects and a variety of experimental operations, Peopeo team cleverly used the metaphor and association, combined with multimedia tools and visual processing, came up with the design of this virtual simulation laboratory, which had won the praises from both the clients and the users. A lively realist style had been applied for laboratory instruments, equipment, etc. to generate true reproduction of the experimental scenes, to ensure that users can receive the same experience tas offline hrough simulation experiments. The icons and buttons were placed in a reasonable layout for operation, according to whiteboard height and ergonomics-related datas.

The Challenge:

China Telecom E-live app supermarket is different from Apple’s AppStore, it supports a number of operation platforms, and also supports a variety of software downloads. So its logic is more complicated, the amount of content is more complex. Meanwhile, the Chinese user base difference is particularly large, with diversified demands. So how to design a simple and smooth product architecture and interaction, after careful researching and analyzing, combined with elegant user interface, have brought considerable demands and challenges.

The Solution:

Through Peopeo invented professional two-iteration product innovation process, Peopeo team started from competitors’ research, targeted users’ situation research, combined with China Telecom’s business requirement and business models, after card sorting, brainstorming, and other processes, Peopeo team designed the low-fidelity prototypes, defined interaction logic, and conducted expert assessment and then optimization; after the interface design and production of high-fidelity prototypes for usability testing and further improvement; Peopeo team came up with the final design which meets the best user experience and business logic. Applications are well-classified, appropriate labels and tags were also provided, which make it easy for users to filter and find their favorite or interested applications. Users purchasing behavior will also be detailed analyzed, and proper apps will be initially recommended or push to them. Most popular apps and/or large number of downloads will also be promoted. Purchasing process has also been carefully considered and well designed to be not only simple and smooth, but also secured.

Project Brief:

E-Live reader use mobile phone as carrier, provide wireless access method and interaction and download with the server through CDMA, provide users with e-books of original, books, magazines, comics, etc. for online and/or offline reading, and it support reviews, recommends, and other ways of participations and interactions. E-Live mobile reading supports various business forms and mobile clients, such as WAP portal, and/or smart phone reading. And the service is promoted through network room, palm room, Internet websites, etc.  Users can read the content at their favorite end, or download for offline reading.

The Challenge:

There were many mobile reading applications in the market already and the competition is very intense. Peopeo team designed the product which best utilize China Mobile’s resources and specialties, with excellent user experiences to attract and keep active users.

The Solution

Many detailed consideration were taken to help achieve the best user experience, and highlight the advantages of China telecom services. Peopeo design team helped E-live Reader to be a green application.

Meanwhile, the E-live reading software is so small, that it can be downloaded very quickly, and it takes up little system resources, which also makes it more popular with users.

Design Features:

1) Using multi-layer coding, Internet traffic minimal

2) Support TXT, UMD, and a variety of formats

3) Clean user interface, book flip effect simulation

4) Full Netcom, support WIFI, China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom network access

5) Compared to other readers, information channel features was added, which allow users to read news

6) Client’s content and content sharing method also has its own characteristics

7) The content classification interface is designed to bring better experience

Flipping the page feature also has been optimizes, more drop-down features

9) Homepage promotion image is also pushed according to users’ reading preferences

Project Brief:

The leak in Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, make every people worry a lot about nuclear radiation, and therefore caused some farce, many people tried to buy the salt is one of the cases. So Peopeo team developed this iphone application to help spreading knowledge and to provide nuclear radiation detection and rescue information.

The Challenge:

How to help people to correctly understand the nuclear radiation, to reduce panic, understandhow to prevent and control of hazards with proper knowledge, through a mobile phone application that helps people to solve this problem.

The Solution:

Peopeo team designed and developed this application to provide relevant daily radiation monitoring data released from official research and development department; the formation of nuclear radiation; hazards, disaster protection; and other aspects of knowledge. Through the introduction of nuclear radiation hazards and how to react to reduce and avoid harm, including what is nuclear radiation, the harm nuclear radiation may cause to human body, leakage of nuclear response, nuclear radiation-induced symptoms, some fruits and vegetables which may help to control the effect, and how to aware the hidden radioactive pollution around our environment. By utilizing the phone’s positioning capabilities, this app help to access to the latest measurement data around from the nearest detection station. So that the user can clearly understand the relevant data, information and advice, to reduce panic, and know how to protect.
