Sprint 1: Initial prototype development

Initial problem space and research

Based on university interviews and research, we identified:

• Physical ID cards create security risks (2 cards lost weekly)
• Manual processes cause administrative burden
• Security incidents in public spaces (e.g., library)
• Limited functionality of current systems

First prototype development

Our initial prototype focused on:

Core features

1. Digital ID implementation
   • Basic digital ID display
   • University credentials login
   • Simple user interface
   • Access permissions structure

Technical foundation

• Basic authentication system
• Simple database structure
• Initial hardware integration specs
• Basic security protocols

User flow

1. Login with university credentials
2. View digital ID
3. Basic access functionality
4. Simple settings management

Initial testing and feedback

We tested with a small group of students and staff:

Positive feedback

• Digital concept well received
• Interest in payment integration
• Appreciation of modern approach
• Security potential recognized

Concerns raised

• Privacy considerations

Key learnings

• Need to focus on convenience features
• Security must be balanced with usability
• Hardware integration is crucial
• Must consider edge cases
