CPSC X82: Mobile Device Programming Not Using iOS
Preliminary Project Proposal (Assignment P0)
Due 12:00 noon, Wednesday, March 15, 2017
(Submit through handin.)
App Name: Overwatch Stat Tracker
Team Members (first name is Team Leader): Robert Adolphson
Project Description:
Target audience
People who play Overwatch
Target device: phone
Abstract:
My app will be a helpful tool and statistics visualizer for people who play Overwatch.
Overwatch is a game by Blizzard Entertainment where players compete in teams against
each other to accomplish an objective. Because the game has many different characters
and a quickly growing competitive scene, many players will want to see how their
statistics compare to pro players and their friends. My app will provide a quick and easy
way to accomplish that task.
Benefits: Why would someone use this app? It provides information on what a player can
do to improve their in-game performance, such as work on their accuracy.
Technical Features:
Depending on the statistics visualization library I use, it may require video acceleration to
render.
Functionality:
1. The app will download statistics from multiple players’ public profile and store them
in an internal and external database
2. The app will create visualizations of the player statistics and allow them to compare
their statistics with other players on a profile/all heroes basis
3. The app will allow the user to store multiple snapshots of profile data so that stat
change trends can be visualized
4. The app will let the user specify profiles to automatically collect scheduled snapshots
for
