Unity Android Debug

    For people who never play with Unity android debug before, here are few steps to do it.

    1: Make sure you download the Android Build Support for you Unity version and check Preferences in Unity Edit menu to make sure you have Android SDK and NDK installed. Usually Android SDK and NDK will be installed when you install Android Build Support. If not you can go to download Android Studio and manually copy the path. JDK is also same. 



    2: Go to Build Setting, switch to Android build platform. And check development build if you want.

    3: Now, open the developer option in your phone. You might not see it in your phone setting, because it is hidden by default setting. Some phone you can just tap 7 times on the bar that say the your current phone's system version. You can easily search on Google for how to open developer option for your phone. Once you see the developer option, click USB debugging and allow USB debugging when you connect your phone to the computer. 
    4: Build the apk and install it into your phone. Then you should be able to debug your project.

    5: There is a very good tool for get log from your device, it is call Android Device Monitor. It can be kind tricky to use it. First you go copy the address of Android SDK from the Preferences and open it you will see 4 folder. Go to the tool folder and click monitor.bat. Some people can just open it with this file, but it does not work for me.

You will see the error something like this. "lib\monitor-location not found" Don't worry, we have another solution.

Open lib folder and you will see 2 monitor-x86 folders, open the 64 one. Then open monitor.exe. You might encounter this error, still do not worry, I have a solution.

    Go copy the JDK address from Preferences. Copy the JRE folder and paste it in monitor-x86_64, then it should solve the problem. 
    When you open it successful, you will see the window like this image. 
    If you set up the script in Unity for output log, like Debug.Log, Debug.LogWarning. You can easily crate a new log filter by click the green + button and type Unity in by log Tag. Then it will show the log from your phone. And you can also change what type of log you want to see from the drop down menu on the right.

Designing With Multiple Interactives: Five Common Pitfalls

    Designing With Multiple Interactives: Five Common Pitfalls by  Allen, Sue, and Joshua Gutwill      This is a pretty good paper talks about the multiple interactive experience design, and it presents 5 common problems to the readers. " 1) multiple options with equal salience, 2) features allowing multiple users to interfere with one another, 3) options that encourage users to disrupt the phenomenon being displayed, 4) features that make the critical phenomenon difficult to find, and5) secondary features that obscure the primary feature."     Solutions: "1) limit Functionality, 2) segment functionality, 3) create a hierarchy of salience.     It also include a case study on interactive features of exhibits. The goal of the study is to find out what is best complexity of the interactive features. 1 Only interactive features, no video. 2 Less features, but with video. 3 No feature, only video. The result shows have a certain degree of live...

 My Research     Usability Study of Fabric-Based Sensors as Interactive Input Devices in Augmented and Virtual Reality Experiences.     Keywords: Fabric-Based Sensor, Capacitive Sensor, UI, Unity, AR and VR. The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS)     The name of the fabric-based sensor that I am currently using is The Capacitive Touch Sensor(CTS). It is created by Vallett Richard who is a electrical engineering PHD student as Drexel University, and it was his master project. Currently, he is working at Center for Functional Fabric. They have some pretty cool projects, such as haptic glove. Here is the link to the website:  https://drexel.edu/functional-fabrics/research/projects/      Here is the description of the sensor from the website. "The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring only two electr...
