7. Signature Design Concept

The MediQ homepage will feature an interactive "Healthcare Cityscape" where each building represents a different feature of the platform. Users can navigate through the cityscape by clicking on buildings to explore doctor discovery, appointment booking, and queue management. The cityscape will be animated using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei to create a 3D effect, allowing users to zoom in and out, rotate the view, and interact with different elements. This immersive experience will make the platform engaging and intuitive.

8. Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, providing a layered depth effect as users scroll. This will create an engaging storytelling experience, with decorative elements moving at different speeds to enhance the visual appeal. Internal pages will adopt a "static" model to ensure clarity and ease of use for data-heavy tasks.

9. Non-Functional Requirements

  • The system must support high availability and scalability to handle peak loads.
  • Data security and patient privacy must be ensured in compliance with local regulations.
  • The platform should be responsive and accessible across various devices and screen sizes.
  • The system should provide real-time updates with minimal latency.
