I always like to try out technology in public spaces when I travel. Imagine my excitement when I was presented with my first opportunity to try out my tag app on my Incredible while I was waiting for my baggage to arrive after my flight from Charlotte to Orlando...
To my dismay, my interaction with this display and my tag reader app was not enjoyable.
Because the tag was located at the bottom of the display, I had to set aside my carry-on bags, purse,etc., and kneel front of it to center my smartphone precisely at the tag. The display was on the wall between the restrooms, a convenient gathering point for people. Little kids darted around me, and parents used this spot to re-organize their family's "stuff". As I tried to scan the tag, a dad had to ask his son to move back, "so the lady could take a picture".
