The basic idea or concept of an application or game should not be any more than a paragraph explaining what you want to create. It isn’t meant to explain the full features or everything you want that to be in the application or game. Rather, it is only meant as a basic starting point that says that this is the overall idea that you want to work on.

This is important because it is the core of the application or game idea, and you can define what the main features of the app or game are and give a clear point of reference for researching.

Our basic concept is to be able to select anywhere in the video feed of the camera and it will read a random passage from a poem or book based on the lighting of the area. Now, this doesn’t go too much into depth on what the application will do, but we can use this as the basis for the fourth step to expand upon the basic idea to create a fully functional and detailed explanation of the application.
