Final Project Proposal Paragraph

For our final project, we will be implementing the system that we design in project 3 (our ethnography system). The system will be a companion to patrons going to the movie theatre. It will allow them to find theatres, view show times, purchase tickets, share activity on facebook, and discuss each movie after it is over with other users. The main goal of our system will be ticket purchasing. This will allow the user to simply scan a barcode for entrance into the movie (via an electronic turnstyle) instead of waiting in line to purchase a ticket, and then wait in line again to have their ticket torn by the attendant. The motivation behind this idea is to allow the user to have a much easier method to purchase tickets electronically, as well as be able to apply student and senior discounts to the purchase. Existing electronic ticket purchase systems require users to still wait in line to pick up their ticket, as well as charge them a convenience fee. We will implement this using a mobile-friendly website to ensure cross platform compatibility, as well as allow printing of the barcode for user’s without smart phones. To verify student discount eligibility, the system will require the user to create an account and link that account to their .edu email address.
