Overview

Pixaura

Pixaura introduces new concepts to the digital photo realm, which empower users to select photos in a flexible, yet supportive environment. Pixaura also bridges the gap between triaging and sharing, accounting for the dynamic needs of sharing for various audiences.


User Experience

Since the workflow for triaging photos for sharing is dynamic and varies from session to session and from photo to photo, Pixaura provides the tools and support for making decisions, without imposing a specific order of action. By creating a playful, flexible, and rewarding experience, Pixaura promotes interacting with and sharing photos as a leisure time activity.


User Interface

The main user interface components of Pixaura are identified in the following diagram.
