Ideate Wireframes

From above all research and analysis, a wireframe was designed with following features.

References for the User Interface Designs are taken from the current players of Social Media. With the use of existing knowledge there wont be any learning curve.

By creating user profile, a user would get more personalized experience making it unique. It will help in creating suggestions catered according to individual choices.

An AR Dressing room feature adds up to the uniqueness where the user can see the outfit on them.

Future Takeaway

Enhancing the traditional experience of e-commerce work as an inspiration for this process. As currently the application of AR in social media and physical retail is trending. It made me wonder with the combination or AR and AI it will solve the user problem and create a seamless experience for them. Even though the concept of the project is futuristic, the competitive analysis made me realize the technology is on its way to create this experience for the user.

For the future I would really like to understand the technology behind AR in depth and work on more to understand the prototype level of AR based apps even more. As well as do the usability testing of the final product.
