    Description/Abstract:
    Significant barriers exist when trying to adopt a pet from a shelter. Adoption agencies lack the resources and tools to share crucial details and important demographics about their animals online. This lack of access and availability inhibits potential adopters from finding and adopting the right pet from an animal rescue shelter in their area. The obstacles adopters and agencies face surrounding digital communication, the growing number of animals in shelters, and adoption requirements emphasize a clear and current need for a solution. Swipet aims to streamline the adoption process by creating a web application that engages users to quickly find the right pet and providing shelters a digital tool to post their pets online. Swipet is a two-sided web application that caters to adopters and shelter organizations. On the adopter-facing portion of the app, Swipet will display animal images, bios, medical history, and other details about the pet to potential adopters in a design that encourages pet adoption. On the shelter/organization side of the app, Swipet will display users with a dashboard interface that handles adoption requests, activity monitoring, and supports animal uploads, updates, or deletions. With this approach, Swipet will eliminate many of the existing barriers between adopters, animals, and shelters. Utilizing emergent front-end frameworks and a reliable backend stack, the team at Swipet has developed a clean and engaging solution.

    Description/Abstract:
    Simple technology questions get asked every day. There are thousands of tools to help technically inclined people get further in their careers and in their knowledge. Tools for learning the basics of computer literacy are either reading documentation or watching videos, nothing that allows for user interaction. Tenjin Tech aims to solve this by giving users interactive challenges for basic computer skills. The team created a website with links to other learning platforms and knowledge. The website also allows for users to access the web application and select specific lesson plans and launch into lessons that ask them to solve a simple challenge. The Covid-19 pandemic has made it even more important to know the basics in computer skills. Tenjin Tech allows those who may have felt that technology was getting past them to learn in a fun and safe environment.

    Description/Abstract:
    The Hop social application was created to solve problems that the group found when socializing on the weekends. People were not able to meet up with friends, or spent most of their evening trying to, because they didn’t know which location their friends were at. When that person found their friends, they had to wait in a line outside the bar or restaurant to get in. After this individual got through the line and found their friends, they may have to wait again for a drink. At this point, their friends may be ready to move on to the next location. Hop has been created to solve these problems and to make going out on the weekends a more fun and simpler process. Our team researched these problems and spoke with people in our target market to better understand their problems and what type of solution they would like to see. We also researched competitors that had similar solutions or those that users had heard about to understand how we could differentiate our product. Our group members downloaded other applications and used them so we would have firsthand experience in what worked well and what could be improved on to solve our users’ problems. We collected our insights as well as data received from conversations with target users. Our decision was to create an iOS application using the swift programming language, and the group had to conduct research to successfully utilize this language. As a group, we had no knowledge of this language, so we spent time researching the fundamentals and learning how the language works. We focused on how it interacts with other platforms and languages, and we learned how to use Xcode as our development environment. This research took a significant amount of time as swift is a fairly new language. Apple does have resources that we used and referred to as we worked on creating the application. After completing research and work on understanding the coding language, development platform, and other platforms used in the project, the group moved to look at the features that would be included. The research focused on wait times at bars and restaurants and how that could be minimized. The group also looked into different APIs and resources for implementing the features. We worked in Google Developer to understand their location data API and how that could be implemented into our application. We also completed research on how we could get another user’s location data, a friend the user has added, to display on their map. This was a more difficult task that led to the decision of supplying friend location data through their status. The majority of our research was completed based on each group members’ experiences and through talking with other people at bars and restaurants. We created Hop as a solution to these problems and as a way to make going to bars and restaurants easier. Our solution makes the experience easier and more efficient for users while allowing the bars to benefit through promotion and partnerships.

    Description/Abstract:
    This project is meant to help single fathers improve their day-to-day lives by improving accessibility to needed resources who will not discriminate against them, increase the opportunity for them to meet other single fathers in their area, and let other single fathers know about their experiences with resources that other single fathers may be looking for. It will accomplish these goals by allowing them to search for locations and services near them or somewhere they may be traveling. Once they identify a resource, which they may choose to use, they will gain access to reviews and ratings made by other single fathers who used the same resources. This will let them know if they should expect to be treated with some bias or be treated as any other parent would be treated. They would also be able to create events which they could advertise to other single fathers in their area, which would allow them to meet other single fathers and socialize their children. This web application is put together using Java Spring Boot, HTML, CSS, and PHP. The Google Map API is configured to only pull reviews for locations from the applications database and not public reviews. The messaging feature allows users to establish connections with other users and create chats for events that they create. This web application will help to resolve four areas of concerns identified in the research for this web application. Those concern themes are health, perceived bias, lack of peer connection and stress relief. This web application will help an increasing demographic which has gotten little assistance, even though it suffers from worse mental and physical health than any other parenting group. This improvement will, in turn, benefit the children of single fathers.

  • Dragon and Taotie Motifs on a 12th-Century B.C.E. Fangyi Bronze Ritual Wine Vessel

    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    This 12th Century B.C.E. Bronze Wine Vessel comes from the Anyang Province in China, dating to the Shang Dynasty, one of the earlier dynasties that ruled in ancient China. The shape of the vessel is a rectangular prism with a square base and 4 thick legs. The lid of this Fangyi is a roughly pyramidal shape with a knob that echoes the shape of the lid. This wine vessel was used for ceremonial purposes, most likely for ancestral worship. Not particularly used for only wine, these vessels also held cooked and raw meat, and grains or other foods, as an offering to the gods and ancestors. Alcohol held in the Fangyi was a liquor, made out of a grain called millet. Comprised of three registers each face of the vessel the same, the bronze is cast and carved to have dragon motifs, taotie masks, and a consistent thunder pattern spiral across the body of the Fangyi. The lid of the Fangyi also has taotie masks on each of sides. The dragons on the body of this vessel represent many things, but most importantly, a harbinger of good luck, prosperity, and consistent success. The taotie masks are elusive in Chinese culture- their original meanings have been lost, but they are thought to represent “animalistic energies… to heal and to offer solace in a world full of diffuse and supernatural forces,” or the finality of death. The spiral pattern is meant to emulate clouds and rolling thunder, symbolizing life-giving rain and abundance.
