Abstract

Animated design elements make the interaction between mobile devices and users more easy and enjoyable. Ready-to-go assets generated directly from the designer’s environment might be used immediately by designers as high-fidelity prototypes or by developers as precisely implemented animations. It is essential to ensure the correctness of generated assets on the target device. In this study, we propose an approach that allows verifying ready-to-go assets on the target mobile device with the Android operating system. It is based on parsing and reconstructing assets on a canvas that offers a set of features to verify the animation. To investigate the performance of the proposed approach we conduct a comparison with the existing approach, qualitative analysis, and survey of designers and developers. The results indicate that the proposed approach is effective and delivers new prospects to prototype and implement animation directly on a target mobile device.
