- CarCool: The fun way of sharing ridesKansal, Samar; Srinivas, Shankar Srinidhi; Aggarwal, Ashish; Khandelwal, Aseem; Krishnaswamy, Krithika Gunasekaran (2024-05-03)CarCool redefines carpooling by connecting users with compatible companions through its innovative 'Vibe Score' algorithm. Users can update their interests in the profile section across categories like Lifestyle, Entertainment, Outdoor Activities, and Sports. These interests are converted into a normalized vector in the backend and stored in the database. When searching for rides, the 'Vibe Score' is calculated and displayed, allowing users to sort rides in descending order based on 'Vibe Score,' alongside other sorting options, ensuring personalized and enjoyable travel experiences.
- Classroom CaptainBendelac, Noam; Bafna, Tanishq; Sharma, Gautam; Krishnappagari, Sai Sanath; Samala, Sindhu Vyshnavi; Atukuri, Sri Sai Asrith (2022-12-09)The recent rise in remote learning has presented challenges for both students and teachers. Detailed visual demonstrations of spatial and visual subjects like physics, chemistry, or geometry can be harder to get across to students on a two dimensional screen. Static diagrams are helpful but insufficient for showing motion, interaction, or change. Some 2D interactive diagrams exist, and they can be sufficient for some topics, while other topics require the full three dimensions. Finally, interactive diagrams can be out of sync between the students’ screens and the teacher’s screen, so when the teacher is pointing something out, the students may not see it. If the teacher shares their screen visuals instead, then the diagram is not interactive for students. Our project seeks to solve these problems by providing 3D interactive diagrams that can be synchronized between the teacher and the students. We developed an interactive 3D educational web application for students to learn physics and calculus under the guidance of teachers. Teachers are able to both guide students’ learning directly by controlling the interactive 3D diagram on students’ screens, and let students learn independently by giving them control over their screens.
- Cold CallerHarris, Violet; Mistry, Aastha; Dinesh, Tanya; Harris, Silver; Brinson, Greg (2024-05-03)Cold Caller is a volunteer management system for political candidates to use when polling the public. We have an admin side to manage/create volunteer accounts, track their progress and most recent activity, and view the survey responses in mass. The volunteer side accesses a database of voters that will pull a set and assign to volunteers for calling and surveying. The volunteer starts a survey and is given step-by-step instructions on what to say and immediately records the voter’s response. They are prompted to submit and save that response as soon as they finish the survey. We track the volunteer’s performance and give a visual reward upon completing a full set of calls. The platform is extremely user friendly and designed for users without technical prowess.
- Covid19 Data Webpage Design for Montgomery County, VA School SystemHicks, Megan (2021-12-08)The product was inspired by the current state of the pandemic. This school year, children and families immerged from lock-down to return to the classroom. With in-person instruction resuming, it was important to follow covid19 cases in schools so that children stay healthy. The current information available on the Montgomery County School Website was difficult to interpret, and doesn’t give the user options to view data over longer periods of time, or for specific schools within the school district. The goal of the project was to provide visualizations for several views of Covid19 data in the Montgomery County School District. These visualizations provide overviews of data for the whole school district. They give the current weeks’ total number of cases, as well as a time series showing levels within schools (as a whole and within geographic locations) from the beginning of the school year to today’s date. The project also provides visualizations that allow the user to select specific schools and/or school-levels to view. This information was embedded into a webpage so that it could be accessed by anyone interested in the data.
- EthelodisGaddipati, Divya; Singhal, Himanshu; Patel, Tej; Gottimukkala, Rithvik (2022-12-05)Our project, Ethelodis, is a user-friendly web application which is built for the people who are interested in volunteering and organizations looking for volunteers for their events. Most of the existing websites can be overwhelming to use and flood users' inbox with a lot of irrelevant information like opportunities that the user might not be interested in, promotional emails, blog posts, newsletters etc. This inefficiency in linkage between civil organizations and people is an issue that we aimed to address in our project. The major goal of our project is to ensure volunteers are matched with relevant opportunities personalized to their interests and to notify them for the matched opportunities via a unique push-notification system. Volunteers will get to opt for the categories they are interested in and receive notifications about potential opportunities related only to their interests, instead of getting spammed about irrelevant information and opportunities.
- Final Product Report - Team WannaBePujari, Akash; Ellaboina, Venkatesh; Peiris, Vibhavi; Pundir, Prachi; Muralikrishnan, Madhuvanti; Veeramachaneni, Nihitha (2022-12-09)Do you wish to express yourself artistically? We believe that becoming an engineer, doctor, or lawyer is relatively simple, yet they argue that artists are born, not produced. Here is an AI-powered program that can help you become a singer or a painter! You may have seen other efforts aimed at certain fields like healthcare, hardware design, and so on. We stopped at nothing in the project to investigate if AI can assist us with modest everyday routine activities. We investigated the use of AI/ML technologies to benefit our everyday lives. We have devised strategies to clarify your voice (transform your bathroom singing to studio-recorded audio quality) and reduce background noise from home-recorded meetings (COVID effect!). It may assist you in transforming your sloppy artwork into a gorgeous painting. Of course, this isn't only for artists; it can be used as a 'filter' for Instagram or Snapchat, and it may be quite useful for police agencies when producing drawings from scribbles. The trick is training the model on a large dataset and utilizing a Generative Adversarial Network (the greatest invention in AI), which results in mapping and producing pictures with a high match score based on the training dataset. We have developed a web application that has two segments : i) Wanna be a Painter - This segment allows users to upload grayscale images/sketches or hand drawings to convert them into beautiful paintings. ii) Wanna be a Singer - This segment allows users to upload audio files into the web application and download the augmented audio with crisp and clear voice.

- Healthy5 : A Pseudo-social Media, Calorie and Fitness Tracking ApplicationJordan, Luke Li; Gupta, Rohan Anil; Wang, Shao Chun; Pinnimty, Venkata Naga Sai Rama Krishna; Masrani, Vinit Anishkumar (Virginia Tech, 2023-05-04)Healthy5 is primarily a calorie and fitness tracking application geared towards the betterment of the individual as well as the community. Specifically, we plan to address the problem of obesity through our “individual” features and the problem of loneliness through our “community” features. As part of the individual features, users can provide information about their calorie intake, calories burnt while exercising and also their current height & weight which in-turn can be used to calculate BMI. Likewise, as part of the community features, users can follow their friends on the platform to track each other's progress, offer words of encouragement and create motivational posts. Furthermore, taking inspiration from the gaming industry, we created it as a “Reward / Upvote System” to make the overall user experience fun and rewarding. In this era of digitalization, we prioritized user’s privacy by divulging only the information for which the user consented to. All in all, Healthy5 will not only track calories and body weight, but also be a source of encouragement to begin and continue living healthily. The users of our platform will hopefully see themselves progressing toward their goals, leading a healthier and happier lifestyle, having each day being less stressful, and having a prolonged life expectancy.
