- Description/Abstract:
- The FCC reported that there were about 3.1 million smartphone thefts in 2013. Today nearly everyone owns at least one smart device, and many people tend to keep personal or business information on these same devices. If your device is lost the first reaction you might have is to use attempt to use 3rd party software to locate or wipe the sensitive data from your device, but what happens when the connection to those services is severed? The Fail-Safe Erase application aims to provide you with the ability to wipe your device after its disconnected from reaching network services. After setting up a personalized password and a wipe timer, the Fail-Safe Erase application will run in the background while looking for those services. Once the connection to GPS, network, and cellular service is interrupted the wipe timer begins its countdown. If the user does not access their device to interrupt the wipe timer within the time set by the user, the device will begin to wipe itself of all personal data. Fail-Safe Erase aims to ensure that if you can’t gain access to your mobile device, remotely or physically, the private data on it will be securely erased, hopefully before it falls into the wrong hands.

2. GoCart
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- The use of the GoCart application will have the ability to enhance grocery shoppers’ experience by taking the shopping list and generating the most efficient shopping path. According to the Time Use Institute, the average shopping trip takes 45 minutes. In part, the time spent is attributed to confusing store layout, congested aisles, and uninformed staff (Marks, 2015). Results from our grocery shopping experience has shown that more time is directed towards roaming through the aisles searching for the items. There are applications dealing with allowing us to create a virtual list, but none directed towards the location of the items. Along with GoCart creating the most productive shopping path with the virtual list, there will also be a map with the store layout that pinpoints each item. Having GoCart will make the next trip to the grocery store quick and painless.

3. Nibbler
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Nibbler is an android application used to search and find restaurants based on specific filters applied by the user. Nibbler gives users the ability to apply multiple filters to their searches and allows those with dietary restrictions or food allergies to find restaurants that fit their specific diet. Nibbler also aims to eliminate the issue of analysis paralysis by limiting the return on food locations that are returned to the user after completing a search. The reason for this is simple, if there are too many options, then an individual can overanalyze or overthink the situation. This way the user still has everything they originally searched for, but the decision is easier due to the fact that they are limited in their options. The application is simple to use and anyone with an android device can navigate the simple UI. This allows users to store personal data and health information safely and securely.

4. PrepIN
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Getting a job interview does not mean automatically landing a job. For people in IT, the interview process can be very lengthy and involve multiple face to face interviews and skill testing. These interviews can be stressful and hard to prepare for. No one should be held back from getting a job they are qualified for. In order to help people prepare for interviews, we have created PrepIN. PrepIN will do what sites like Indeed and Hackerrank do not. Anyone would be able to schedule a time for a practice interview. They will participate in a one to one host video call and have access to a video message chat. Having access to a test environment that will put them face to face with someone will better help stimulate the interview environment and process. That way job seekers can work to deal with the stress and anxiety that many face during interviews.

5. UC CTF
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- According to cybersecurityventures.com, despite the high demand for new talent in the cyber security field, there are currently not enough cyber professionals to fill this need (Morgan, 2019, p. 1). To generate new cyber talent, the Ohio Cyber Range Institute utilizes its in-house web application to host regional Capture-the-Flag (CTF) events—exciting, cyber-themed competitions that help inform and spur interest in cyber security. Our project, UC CTF, takes that existing web application and greatly expands upon it. UC CTF features a completely redesigned application site, enhanced functionality and quality-of-life improvements for site administrators, and a brand new question repository of fun cyber challenges for CTF players—from beginner to expert and everything in between. UC CTF greatly improves upon the capabilities of the original application, allows for players of all skill levels to engage in an exciting CTF environment, and helps to develop new talent in cybersecurity.

- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Car maintenance management can be difficult due the different components that are commonly repaired and replaced. Even if an owner has vast knowledge of their vehicle’s maintenance routine, it is common to forget when a component was replaced. Consumer Reports advises that the best way to save money at the mechanic is to do proper research on specific components, and fix/replace components at the right time. iMechanic is a multi-platform web application that allows car owners to take maintenance into their own hands by keeping detailed work logs and allowing owners to efficiently organize their car’s data. The user can input simple vehicle information to create their dashboard, where they can get familiar with common maintenance routines, costs, and local mechanics. When a car owner uses a proper organization management tool, they can increase the well-being of their vehicle, while also saving money from avoiding unnecessary repairs.

- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- According to a study in 2018 from PSYCOM, it was concluded that 50% of teenagers feel they are addicted to their smartphones, 60% of adults say that they believe that their children are having issues with time on their phone and, on average, 60% adults and children state they immediately respond to notifications. HomeWatch is a web-based application that would give everyone ease of mind when it comes to overlogging by tracking the time used on certain websites and applications without limiting time or function. HomeWatch is meant to be a safeguard for expectations set by parents so that children aren’t abusing time on their device. With social media, and easy access apps on smartphones, it is easier to spend more time on the phone than it is to do productive work, and HomeWatch is there to make sure that work and play are budgeted effectively.

8. Easy DB
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- According to Marketing Metrics [1] businesses have a 60 to 70 percent chance to sell to existing customers versus just 5 to 20 percent for other prospects. A database can provide essential insights into a customer’s choices that can be used to grow a business. Unfortunately, many small businesses do not have the knowledge or budget to create and manage a database. EasyDB aims to alleviate the stress on small businesses by providing a tool to learn the basics of database design as well as getting a template database created in real time that a small business can set up quickly with some acquired knowledge. This is done using EasyDB’s guided template builder that walks users through the creation of essential database designs with the intention of creating an end database that the user can download for their own use. When the guided learning databases are not enough there are also templates, that users can edit and download to meet their specific needs. In the case that we tested with a small business owner, the owner was able to step through all of the guides and gain enough knowledge to implement a database that he could use in the future.

10. Patrol
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Many police departments lack technological resources that enables them to track meaningful data. Beginning in 2020, the State of Ohio has mandated that all departments track and collect police incident data. This data is where most police officers’ public contact comes from according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (Office of Justice Programs). Currently, this data is gathered from notes that the officer makes at the time of the incident and later recorded in an excel document. This process is inefficient and fallible. Patrol is a cross-platform web application that allows officers to easily, accurately and efficiently gather incident data. By creating an application that is cloudbased, officers can easily input information that stores the data at the time of the incident. This data is used to generate reports for the department and state auditors. Patrol's design and development allows officers to save time and difficulty in creating incident reports.
