April 2025 (Capstone-Projects-2025-Spring/project-aac-game-team-b) delivered a robust camera subsystem, QR scanning capabilities, and cross-platform UI enhancements, while stabilizing tests and maintenance hooks. Key features delivered included a substantial overhaul of the camera core and UI for better usability and performance, integration of a QR scanning pipeline with speed optimizations, and platform-wide UI/UX improvements to broaden device compatibility. Major bug fixes addressed processing and self-scan reliability, along with stability improvements for tests and pathing logic. The work reduces user friction, speeds common flows, and strengthens the project's maintainability. Key features delivered: - Camera Core and UI Improvements: created and refined the camera component, added client-side rendering setup, UI controls (flip button, back/capture sizes), and code hygiene improvements. - QR Code Scanning: added Jsqr for QR scanning; achieved faster scans and corrected audio file naming; stabilized scanning pipeline. - Camera System Upgrade: upgraded to V3 camera system to improve reliability and capabilities. - Platform and UI Enhancements: Safari compatibility option, mobile browser-friendly code, pop-up UI component, and text/UI wording updates; UX refinements for exit button and voice updates on join room pages. - Lifecycle and Maintenance: introduced uninstall/cleanup path, and performed test stabilization and code cleanup to reduce noise in future releases. Major bugs fixed: - QR code processing corrected and self-scanning issues resolved. - Test failures in batch stabilized with targeted fixes. - Path and UI layout issues addressed (pathing improvements, capture fitting on screen, and path-resolution fixes). - Miscellaneous maintenance cleanups to remove leftover placeholder code and unrelated artifacts. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Delivered a cohesive camera and QR scanning experience with improved speed, reliability, and cross-platform compatibility, directly reducing user friction and support overhead. - Strengthened lifecycle management with uninstall/cleanup support, enabling cleaner onboarding/offboarding and easier maintenance. - Established stronger testing and code quality through targeted fixes and cleanup, setting a stable foundation for future features. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Front-end component design and client-side rendering (use Client) in modern UI stacks - Third-party QR scanning integration (Jsqr) with performance tuning - System upgrades: Camera System Upgrade (V3) - Cross-platform compatibility: Safari-specific handling, mobile browser optimizations - UI/UX design: pop-up components, hover/voice/UI consistency improvements, and content text updates - Quality & maintenance: test stabilization, pathing/testing enhancements, code cleanup
