- Description/Abstract:
- The Wireless Charging SmartBag is the ultimate solution for users on the go, who fail to find time to recharge devices. The combination of proprietary smart device connection cables, adapters, and battery banks into this SmartBag can substantially increase the freedom and organization of users of Qi enabled devices. Current market research shows no viable all-in-one solution that provides this ease-of-use. According to Cisco VNI, the number of networked devices per person is expected to jump to fourteen by 2022. This paper discusses the work, validation, and development of the resulting fully inclusive system utilizing a mobile application to allow users to view battery percentage data for each registered device including the backpack itself, as well as the ability to prioritize device charging based on need and available charging capacity. Additional features include a SmartBag charging dock, GPS tracking, and Global Wifi HotSpot.

- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Have you ever actually completed a New Year’s Resolution? Neither have we! According to Forbes, 80% of Americans set a New Year’s Resolution, but only 8% will actually complete their goal[1]. The simple fact is that these self-improvement goals require motivation and discipline that most people lack. That’s why we’ve created Purrsistent Pet. While there are many solutions available to keep track of your study and workout habits, there are none that also give you additional inspiration towards completing those goals. Purrsistent Pet provides this by making the user responsible for their own digital pet, and to care for it the user must make progress towards their goals. We’ve built this application on the fact that it is easier to motivate yourself when your new digital friend is relying on you, too, so please give it a try and improve yourself today!

1773. PEW
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Since the year 2000, there have been on average over 400 natural disasters per year affecting rural and metropolitan areas alike. These disasters leave communications networks broken and segmented. The victims are left merely helpless while they wait for assistance and emergency first responders to save their lives. Even after these tragic events, communication services may not be restored for months or even years. This leaves families and individuals vulnerable to further hardship due to lack of supplies. Our solution aims to reconnect disaster victims faster. With our GoKits, families and emergency services will come back online in dramatically less time. A GoKit includes everything you need to connect to our emergency communications network. With this GoKit, users can connect from up to 15km away from our eNAP (Emergency Network Access Point). PEW believes access to communications networks should remain a human right.

1775. Possibility
- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- According to a study done by TouchBistro, sixty-three percent of restaurant goers say that the type of food has the biggest impact on their restaurant choice. Many people that have dietary restrictions or specific eating lifestyles can have difficulty choosing a place to eat that meets their needs. Currently, there are applications that target one specific eating lifestyle, (e.g. vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, etc.) but none encompass the full spectrum of eating lifestyles a person can follow. The Possibility mobile application is a food finding application that allows users to enter their specific eating lifestyle and view menu options of nearby restaurants that accommodate their needs. The application features tools for reviewing restaurant choices and sharing recipes with other users. Whether a person is looking for vegan, vegetarian, keto, paleo, gluten-free, or allergy-free options, they will find the best place to eat using the Possibility App.

- Type:
- Student Work
- Description/Abstract:
- Business communications are becoming more and more demanding as technology continues to advance in our ever-changing world. VOIP communications allow a business to stay connected with a reliable and flexible method of handling their telecommunication needs. However, VOIP must have optimal networking conditions for it to work properly and reliably. We created a solution to allow businesses to stay connected while minimizing any impacts they may have on their everyday communications. Using Dynamic routing we were able to shift network traffic from overloaded VOIP servers in order to keep communications up and running. According to PriceItHere.com VOIP Solutions can cost $20 to $40 per month per user, which can add up fast. We were able to keep costs low by using open-source software. The result is a quick and reliable VOIP solution that can handle large amounts of traffic and keeps client costs low.
