Challenge Overview
Competition Task Overview
The Galena team has partnered with Appirio [topcoder] to build a mobile application through the crowd. This application is intended to enhance the fueling experience by allowing you to check in to a pump and complete a purchase from the comfort of your phone. The application will make use of communication technologies such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon, iBeacon, QR code reading and so on to help check users into specific fuel pumps.
The users of the application will have the convenience of controlling their whole transaction through their handheld devices. It will be possible to store payment information (Credit Card/PayPal etc.) in the application for ease of use and the application will push informative advertising and fueling status to the screen. In addition the app will provide paperless digital receipts after the transaction along with storing their history. Users will also be able to locate nearby gas stations through the application and choose and access multiple other loyalty schemes as appropriate.
This initial version will target Android based mobile phones, and it will be built using Titanium platform.
This assembly will implement basic features of the app.
Detailed Requirement
Please refer to the architecture document and skeleton app for details.
Note only Galena_Mobile_App_Purchase_and_Fueling_Assembly_Specification.docx is in scope.
UI Updates
The skeleton app is based on prototype v3, but it's updated to v11 since we built the skeleton app.
So this challenge must also make sure the screens in scope of this challenge are updated to match the v11 prototype.
We'll provide both v3 and v11 prototype in the forum as well as the changelog to make this easier.
Base Code
The provided project should be used as base code.
