Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - The pandemic world has pushed to adopt more and more remote shopping experience, creating new challenges and opportunities for many retail and grocery owners. However, majority of warehouse management as well as warehouse stuff are still done by human labor. We aim to reduce the gap between state-of-art remote shopping experience and warehouse/retail automation, by heavily utilizing AMQP protocols, robotics, reinforcement learning as well as mixed reality headsets. What it does: - It allows customers to add grocery items via a Node.js web app, and it will instead send a notification to the retail owner, who can then use mixed reality headset to fetch/manage the items (if available) and put them in the shopping cart for future pickup. The actual warehouse is managed by a robotic arm that could be remotely controlled by human. How we built it: - There are three parts of the project: warehouse (robotic arm), grocery/retail owner as well as the customer. We adopted modular approach and tried out best to decouple all of them, and started tackle the problem separately. We created a web interface for customer to place orders, and used Unity to create a digital twin of the robotic arm as well as a control panel for retail management, which can showcase the number of nearby stores, the amount of information for the grocery items. This is largely achieved by making calls to many NCR API such as their Order and Sites endpoint. We also have designed an experimental full-auto algorithm for automatically picking up the item, though its reliability is largely un-testified. Challenges we ran into: Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are able to weave so many random things together within such a short amount of time. Further we are able to make successful integrations of NCR's API and use their HMAC authentication despite so many struggles. What we learned: - Plan ahead and do not waste time What's next for ARMS (Augmented Retail Management System): - The experimental automatic grabbing algorithm that uses reinforcement learning (PPO) is going to be deployed and tested further, adding more automation to the project.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - When it comes to Cole and Matt, you know healthcare will enter the conversation some way some how. - Well, the whole idea started with the thought of mechanics. We were discussing the economics of mechanics, and how they can charge us pretty much anything they want because of our lack of knowledge of car parts. But that got us thinking, what other information gaps are there still remaining in this digitally-informed world? - As relatively sporty individuals, we related to how we've both spent a lot of time in doctor's offices for longer-term injuries and conditions, and we reflected on how little we actually knew about our treatment plans in the past. As we continued to do research and call up friends and family asking about their experiences in specialized treatment, we realized that most people aren't well-informed on treatment options and medications before walking into the doctor's office, causing a pretty large information gap. - We built Altrue to bridge this gap and educate patients on what types of treatments could potentially work for them. That way, patients could start more two-way dialogues with their specialists and become more literate in their personal health journeys. What it does: - The Altrue platform collects user information such as age, sex, ethnic group, and family history, as well as health information like medical symptoms and their respective severities and uses them as parameters to match the user with treatment plans used by other patients in the past. Using the data entry points as parameters to determine the closest matches, Altrue personalizes the treatment plan so that the user can get a good scope of what medications and treatments may be right for them. How we built it: - We built the Altrue application using the MERN Native stack, employing a React Native front-end, Express.js and Node.js middleware, and MongoDB database. That way, the platform can be easily converted into a web application for laptops and desktops. - Also, since the platform relies heavily on user-inputted data and the utilization of that data for matching patient cases, we hope to use this de-identified data to look for treatment trends and potentially uncover insightful findings in regards to the timeline of procedures and prescriptions. Challenges we ran into: - A big challenge we ran into is how to calculate the weights for the different information parameters. We spent some time doing research and eventually came up with a combination of weights that did a good job of matching similar patient cases. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are super proud that we finished our project while still having time to enjoy our weekend and even sleep! What we learned: - We learned how to coordinate work as a team and how to learn on the fly, picking things up on the way to the finish. What's next for Altrue | Bridging the gap in specialized healthcare: - What's next for Altrue is the implementation of a machine learning algorithm as the matchmaker!

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - The inspiration for our project was that all of us were often very unorganized in our lives, because there were so many things happening on campus. We wanted to find a way to make things less chaotic. What it does: - It places all events in a calendar. The hosts of the events are able to add events to a database and the app creates a new event based off of it. The user can then RSVP for an event and the app checks to make sure that the user does not register for multiple events during the same time. Furthermore, there is a log in request in the profile part that allows the user to sign in with google. This allows them to connect with their friends and see what events they are signed up for. How we built it: - In order to build this app, we used our skills in Java and the Android Studio IDE in order to generate an application. We used Firebase, Cloud Firestore, Google Authentication as well as knowledge with XML to create an android app for the Play Store. Challenges we ran into: - It was the first time for many of us using a collaborative version control software such as GitHub, and we ran into many issues regarding committing and pushing faulty versions of the code that created many bugs. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are proud that we were able to work through as a team and push through to create a final app that has a solid working that we wanted. What we learned: - We learned that in order to work well as a team, simple knowledge of programming is not enough. We need proper organizational skills, and we need to know how to use organizational software such as GitHub as well. What's next for What's the Move?: - Next, even after HackGT, our team plans to continue working on the idea that we came up, and continue working on our project to make it a reality in the bigger picture.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - Food waste in the USA is a huge problem, with 108 billion pounds of food thrown out in the United States. That equates to more than $161 billion worth of food thrown away each year. Of that $161 billion worth of food wasted, $20-30 billion is from restaurants. 10.5 percent (13.8 million) of U.S. households were food insecure at some time during 2020. Additionally, college students in Atlanta frequently look for more affordable food options. There isn’t a service connecting restaurants and consumers for discounted excess food in Atlanta. What it does: - Awayste provides a platform that connects restaurants with consumers to reduce the amount of leftover food that would otherwise be thrown out. - Restaurants use the add item page to input items that are leftover and would otherwise go into the trash bin. They can use our inventory page to keep track of the items that they have ready to sell at a discounted price. Awayste helped to reduce the food waste that restaurants produce and makes it accessible for consumers to get high quality food at an affordable price. Items “drop” at a certain time, and a countdown shows consumers how much time they have left until pickup! - On the consumer end, they can use the listings page to browse the items that restaurants publish. They can then add items they want to their cart and see the total price. Here, we used some items from Sweet Hut Bakery, a Georgia Tech favorite just a mile from campus. - We connected the NCR Catalog API to manage the inventory for vendors. In the future, we would love to use more such as the CDM, Order, Images, and Sites APIs to make our web app more functionable for NCR customers. With Awayste, our hope is to positively impact the community around us in Atlanta and provide incentives for businesses to adopt sustainable practices. How we built it: - Our platform was made with: Challenges we ran into: - We had trouble using the NCR API and spent a lot of time trying to connect to it. Most of our team was also new to web development and using CSS. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are very happy with the UI of the web app. Additionally, the presentation we put together and overall cohesiveness of our project is very fulfilling. What we learned: - We learned a lot more about how restaurants deal with food waste in Atlanta as well as NCR's technology that helps to support restaurants. What's next for Awayste: - Since many people struggle with allergies, we want to include tags and filters. This will help consumers to find the items they want much faster. In addition, a rewards system would help to incentivize consumers to visit restaurants with rewards which helps restaurants to build brand presence. By adding a Google Maps API, users will be able to get a better sense of closer restaurants and use a different view.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - There are many free items group chats around campus that notify students when free things are available, however, it is difficult to keep up with all the different groups and notifications. Freebee Findr aimed to collect all this information and keep it in one location so students could also keep track of all the free items around campus. What it does: - Freebee Findr allows students to see what free items are being given out around campus. It also has an upvote and downvote feature that allows users to see which item is most popular. How we built it: - Through IntelliJ, we used HTML, CSS and Javascript and a Bootstrap template to create a web application. We also used figma to first design the UI and various controllers. Challenges we ran into: - We ran into several problems with choosing the software which we would code the project in. At first we wanted to learn android studio and create an app; however, we realized that learning how to use android studio and coding it was unrealistic with the time constraint. Then we tried to use JavaFX since every teammate is familiar with how to use it, but our computers were having a hard time running it. We decided to go with the Figma as a prototype, and create a website to simulate what the app does. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are proud of the Figma because it illustrates how we want the app to run with the appropriate images and layout . Also, we are proud of our idea, and being able to make a website in a day due to the challenges we ran into. What we learned: - We learned how to code in html to make a website, and how to pick from CSS and JavaScript to help with construction of the website. What's next for Freebee Findr: - We hope to make Free Findr into a mobile app so it is more accessible for students. We want to finish implementing all its features as well.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - During the first few weeks of classes, the lines at all the dining halls on campus were extremely long. It was extremely difficult to try and get food and still make it to classes on time. This app helps mitigate that issue. What it does: - This app provides users with the current wait time and reviews of every dining hall on Georgia Tech's campus. Users can leave input and feedback so other users can determine the best dining hall for a meal on a given day. How we built it: - We used Xcode IDE and used Swift to build this app. We had to build the UI and program the various aspects of the app to perform in the ways we intended them to. Challenges we ran into: - We wanted to use router networks to try and give extremely accurate data but realized this was something that wasn't feasible given the time constraints and security restrictions surrounding this project. We were forced to search for alternative methods and ended up using GPS to reach our goals with this app. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - This was the first hackathon for all members of our team, and we were extremely nervous coming into the competition. Additionally, we were not accustomed to the swift language prior to this event and had to learn much of it as we were working on our project. We are extremely proud to create a functioning app at the end of this event. What we learned: - We learned a lot about the app development process and how to plan our approach to ensure a smoother development cycle. We encountered a lot of issues that we should have expected, and moving forward, we will expect these kinds of issues in similar projects. What's next for Dine N Dash: - Moving forward, we want to build upon this project and expand it into something more powerful and more meaningful. The first step of this would be to implement an API that would allow us to add alerts and messaging functionalities to our app. This would allow us to remind or recommend certain actions to users given their preferences. We could also use other information like the current wait time, time of day, and location of the user to provide the most efficient method of obtaining food. We would also like to incorporate the menu of each dining hall into our app, allowing the user to see more information about each dining hall on our app. Lastly, once we clean up the app and ensure that it works in the way we intend it to, we would like to expand it to include other food options on campus including the student center and exhibition hall. If this goes smoothly, we would like to take our app to other college campuses as well.

Project Description: Inspiration: - Coming from almost two years of online meetings, we have learned a lot of great things. And a lot of bad as well. From the people that get to the meeting without even knowing the topic to those meetings that are solved in 5 minutes - and could easily have been an email - I want to try and solve that. What it does: - NEMO assists in creating the pre-reads for the meeting, inviting your peers to the platform for the platform, and having a real-time assistant while you are doing your meeting, which helps you look into all the topics in your agenda and send out follow-up tasks before the next meeting. How we built it: - I used Flutter for the front-end, TypeScript for the backend (which was serverless, I used Google Cloud's cloud functions for it). Challenges we ran into: - Making the real-time collaboration on the text editor is a whole project by itself. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - being able to finish an MVP! What we learned: - Managing to integrate well all the parts in the project (Front-end and serverless back-end), which was new for me for serverless projects. What's next for NEMO: - Next, I want to connect it to Google Calendar to send out the tasks and calendar invites for new meetings. Also, I want to add statistics on how much each person speaks during a meeting if they actually read the pre-reads, and open sections for Q&A and voting, all to be registered. Perhaps connect to Miro as well!

What it does: - It takes a user-submitted text file and generates a recommendation from the dataset based on text and style analysis, as well as predict the genre of the file. How we built it: - We used Python to build the back-end algorithms and parsers and Flask to create a front-end UI. Challenges we ran into: - Being our first Hackathon, we ran into many challenges with the organization of our work. Several times we had to rewrite parts of our code to improve speed and reduce errors. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We managed to create a working algorithm that parses a large dataset and converts it into a more manageable vector that could quantitatively measure similarity in books. What we learned: - We learned about machine learning in the form of a Naive Bayes model to make the genre prediction and the challenges behind implementing it. We also learned how to use Flask to build a front-end, and using object-oriented programming aspects of Python. What's next for Wishful Thinking: - Implement a more rigorous recommendation algorithm such as by including sentiment analysis and artificial intelligence to make better, more accurate recommendations.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - As the virtual world took over all forms of educational learning, we discovered that there seemed to be a discrepancy between the way information was presented versus the way information was stored and accessed. In particular, while great professors may have been able to give lectures packed to the brim with information, once that video was stored in the web, it became very unwieldy to navigate through and find specific bits of information. However, we noticed that despite these lectures being many hours long, most of them came in the form of slides--mostly unmoving, meaning that there was a way to greatly reduce the redundant information density contained within these videos for a more compact, explorable solution. What it does: - Enter TreeLDR. TreeLDR takes an arbitrary video file (it can be a URL, downloaded file, etc.) and outputs a sequence of slides annotated with key words and phrases that define that specific slide. Furthermore, these key words and phrases actually form links between slides through the entire video, meaning that when listening to the professor lecture over on one slide, you can click on an associated keyword and get a reminder of the previous slide where it was defined. Or, you could get a sneak peak of topics yet to come. TreeLDR strives to connect information with each other, bring together a more efficient viewing experience. How we built it: - We built TreeLDR using a combination of computer vision, natural language processing and front end engineering. We parse slides from a video sequence using computer vision before performing optical character recognition to get the paragraphs and lines within the text. From there, we perform keyword extraction, upon which we tokenize and match between all slides within a presentation in order to get a graph of common information between slides. That information is then transferred over to a front end website which aims for ease of use for students. We tried to make the UI as streamlined as possible so that anyone could use the tool, while still providing the depth that the many connections offer. TreeLDR is a tool built by students, for students. Challenges we ran into: - One major challenge we ran into early on was the extraction and matching of keywords from the slides. We knew that there would be many libraries capable of doing text recognition, but we were not aware of--at the time--of many common algorithms for semantic understanding of key phrases that can be used to match very different phrases between slides. However, we took the time to plan and researched many NLP algorithms, one being cosine distance, and were able to quickly get to speed with the meat of the backend. We also had trouble with integration late in the project, but because we set ourselves up early for success, we were doing well through the competition. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are quite proud of getting a working, polished product that delivers on the initial promise and uses some novel ideas to get a working system. We are also proud of how we planned the system from beginning to end, and made sure we hit the milestones along the way. In this way, we both became better coders, but also understood how to finish a project, market it, and make it usable for a general audience. What we learned: - We learned a great deal during this Hackathon. One of the most important lessons we learned was to build upon the work of others. Hacking is really about pulling together disparate knowledge from many different areas and combining them together in a unique way. We combined computer vision, natural language processing, server side programming, and front end engineering (all with a healthy dose of help from online resources) to create a great project that we are proud of. What's next for TreeLDR: - For TreeLDR, there is so much to improve. One possible idea is to extend the connection system, allowing for better keyword matching and able to work on larger data sets/longer slides. One of the most exciting things, however, is the ability to visualize a graph of the generated data, which is a completely new way of interacting with educational content. We envision a "prezi"-like presentation scheme where one can easily navigate and backtrack through relevant content, thus generating a solid flow for studying.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - Covid-19 gave a hard time to local and small businesses. As a result, we wanted to create something that would help them understand customer data better as well as a way for customers to engage with the business through incentives provided. What it does: - The app gives you a way to sign up and login as a customer or a business admin, and submit data or view customer data in a sorted way respectively. How we built it: - We used XCode as the IDE and used Swift language to code the application. We used python to access and implement the NCR API. We also used a Real time database using Google firebase and connecting it to our local project. Challenges we ran into: - We had not used APIs similar to NCR's before this hackathon. In order to implement it to Swift, we had to find workarounds, using Python, and make it work. We also ran into a challenge on design execution, as we brainstormed and coded certain features that did not end up in the final version. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We got a full functioning application on iOS with real-time data in the backend and executable front end. What we learned: - We learned that certain APIs are very useful to building projects, and as we scale applications to a larger scale, it would save many lines of code. What's next for BrownBear: - Developing customer end with more sophisticated data about their shopping history. Connect to nearby company data and get real data for real results.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - CAD, also known as Computer-Aided Design, is an integral process towards the planning portion of many engineering projects. However, for many new engineers, having to learn the software and concepts behind CAD just to design the elements of their project seems daunting. We asked ourselves, “How can we lower the barrier of entry so beginners can start CADing without tons of technical experience?” If only there was a way to simplify the process so engineers can start prototyping right away… drum roll … introducing LaunchCAD, a way to CAD that is as simple as putting pen to paper, a launchpad for every engineer’s journey. What it does: - LaunchCAD converts two-dimensional isometric drawings into three-dimensional CAD models. Using a mobile device, users can scan an isometric drawing and upload it directly onto a computer where the image will be converted into a .stl file. These files can then be used however the user wants to, whether for additional tweaking, 3D printing, or other such projects. How we built it: - Using open-source libraries and our own code, we were able to apply neural networks, optimization algorithms, and different mathematical models to create our application. The primary conversion from the isometric drawing to tangible data was through the use of OpenCV’s template matching CNN (convolutional neural network). On top of the template matching, we used trigonometric calculations to straighten out the isometric image into planes of 2d matrices. Finally, using statistical analysis and NumPy meshes, we were able to determine the relative location of each cube and assemble a CAD model. The frontend of our application was built using React Native and the backend was built using Tornado.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - Our team attempts to explore innovative applications in a world that is significantly impacted by COVID-19. The food hospitality industry, which is traditionally dominated by dine-in services, witnesses an enormous increase in demands for contact-free services such as delivery and curbside pickup. While delivery is supported by a wide range of awesome apps such as DoorDash and UberEats, there haven't been a lot of applications that are specifically curtailed to curbside pickup, which offers a more flexible option of dining at a much affordable cost. This shortage inspires our idea to use NCR BSP APIs to create a curbside pick-up optimization platform, as our project for the HackGT 8 challenge. What it does: - One day, you have an irrational thirst for sushi :sushi: and boba tea :bubble_tea:. However, you're not sure which sushi restaurant and which boba tea shop you should drop by so that you can achieve both of the following objectives in a one single pickup route :car:: - \ntravelling at the Shortest Distance\nGetting the Best food quality of both restaurants together\n - This is precisely where our web application comes in. Our “bundling” option allows customers to order from multiple restaurants and pick up their orders in a single trip without swiping through different apps. Given a list of multiple keywords, we conduct fuzzy searches on each one of them and create a set of combinations of eateries (and groceries, by the next extension) between each search. Each combination is treated as one item, and for each combination, our ranking algorithm computes a combined score from 1) the weighted average rating of all restaurants in this combination, and 2) the total distance of the shortest route that covers all restaurants in this combination. How we built it: - We have built the frontend with Javascript and React, and the backend with Python that is also used to connect the API from NCR and Google Map. Challenges we ran into: - The API from NCR has a unique syntax. We took quite a long time to familiarise ourselves with the usage of the API and fix the errors arising in using the the API. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We have built a robust web application that can perform optimisation of restaurant bundles based on multiple factors, known as travelling distance and average reviews. The user interface is user-friendly and clean. What we learned: - It is the first time experience for most of our teammates to apply API in a real application. We have also learnt to work under the pressure to create a functional web applications by connecting the frontend and backend infrastructure. What's next for ONE GO!: - NCR BSP API Challenge: One Go!\nWe are exploring options to include more methods of MENU API from NCR, which are not available for this Hackathon this now. With this API in place, we have a more sophisticated platform that can help the customers to order the food on the fly in ONE GO!

Project Description: Inspiration: - Wanting to create a solution to address accessibility needs, we decided to create a new approach to helping those with visual impairments interact with the world around them. What it does: - The sensor calculates the distance between the user and the closest object in proximity and vibrates to let the user know that they are approaching an object. How we built it: - Using a raspberry pi and the vibrating motor from an old phone, we created a prototype for our device. Challenges we ran into: - We found it difficult to consolidate our design into something more convenient, discrete, and wearable. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - Having a mostly operational prototype for our solution. Ideally, a more complete solution would be wearable and vibrate consistently based on the proximity to the obstacle.

Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - Many of our family members back in India try to buy a car which causes less pollution but end up buying a car without looking into it as they have no resources to directly look into it and they also don’t have the time to research it themselves. This is a wasted opportunity since even a small step taken makes a large difference in the long run. What it does: - Sustainable McQueen has a list of Vehicles along with the rates of Carbon Dioxide emissions and the prices so that people can take both of the important factors into consideration. Our platform also provides the opportunity to compare cars to give a better understanding of the differences. How we built it: - We mainly utilized HTML, CSS, and its components to build the application. Challenges we ran into: - Finding the CO2 emissions per vehicle in our sample data set was a bit challenging in the beginning since we had to research a lot and convert values to a standardized unit to make it easier for end-user comparison. Also, sleep. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We’re proud of the fact that we could come up with an idea that could help people take a step towards sustainability. With global warming’s increasing threats, everyone should try their best to be as sustainable as possible. What we learned: - We learned how to effectively divide tasks among team members and learned that communication is key! What's next for Sustainable McQueen: - Sleep. After that, we plan on utilizing Catalog and delivery APIs to create a one-stop shop where end users can not only make a decision but also take the decision. Furthermore, we wish to add other ways cars affect the environment into consideration. Adding a price filter along with an emission filter, which can allow users to search for an optimum solution that is not only sustainable but also within their budget.

Please evaluate the following project description based on two criteria on a 10-point scale: Novelty and Usefulness. Novelty: How unique and original is the project's concept, approach, or solution? Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - We were inspired to create a music-based social media web application because we all personally had a lot of music artists that we were interested in, and wanted to talk to others about. However, it can be hard to find someone who likes the same artists that you do, especially if that artist is not well known. - In addition to this, we considered how focused society was on social media and music. While social media stems from our desire to connect with others, music stems from our artistic expression. We decided to combine these two and thus created Synth. What it does: - Our web application aims to match people with similar music interests so they can share liked music and provide recommendations to others. It also provides the user with an overview of their favored songs and artists over either the last 4 weeks, the last 6 months, or the lifetime of the Spotify account. It authenticates users using google and stores their data in a Firestore database to ensure a unique experience for every user. How we built it: - Synth was built with web technologies such as Next.js, Firebase, and Flask using Typescript and Python as the main languages. Many of the front-end UI components utilized Chakra UI to facilitate a single design system for rapid development. Our backend, consisting of Flask for the server, implemented our custom algorithm to generate user matches, taking into account each user's top genres, artists, and even specific songs. This makes our platform capable of uniting those with very niche music interests. Say you love an indie band that not many people from your town know of. Using our software, one can potentially find other like-minded individuals that are in love with the same indie band, an otherwise difficult thing to do outside of social media. Challenges we ran into: - One major challenge we ran into was the interactions with the Spotify API. We originally tried to use a Python wrapper of the API, but it was finicky and it was hard to get consistently to work. Instead, we had to directly communicate with the API which was something outside of what we were comfortable with. - Another challenge we had in building this application was the algorithm to match users. In the case of a much larger user base, it is extremely hard to check every user against every user to find the best match. This is time consuming and impractical. To combat this, we had to figure out a way to greatly decrease the amount of comparisons. In the end, we found a way to initially split everyone into buckets which they are then compared with to find a match. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We are proud of its ability to successfully match within our group of three members. Although this may seem small, it was obvious to us who should be matched with who and our algorithm agreed with us which was a reassurance to the eventual success of the algorithm. - We are additionally proud of the way a user's top songs and artists are presented on the dashboard. We thought that the presentation provided an aesthetically pleasing, while also efficient, way of presenting a user's music data. What we learned: - We struggled with using the Spotify API because at first we tried to use Spotipy which was a Python library for the API, but then we realized that using the API directly would make it a lot easier for us. Through this, we learned how to directly query an API without the wrapper and the benefits and detriments of that. - Additionally, we learned how to integrate React.js, Flask, and Cloud Firestore in the development of our application for our frontend, backend, and data storage respectively. It was very interesting learning how they work together and how requests are sent through. - Lastly, we had to develop a way to match people with users with similar music tastes. Here, we learned exactly what data we were able to access through the Spotify API and were able to use artists, songs, and genres to match users with each other. What's next for Synth: - Synth is a social media app and we were able to match similar users with each other. In the future, we would also want to implement messaging through the app so that users would not have to email each other. Within the messaging system, we would also want to include other functionalities such as being able to make Collaborative playlists on Spotify with each other and we were even thinking of giving users the option of allowing others to queue songs for them in Spotify. We also considered adding a feature that would allow users to match with others who both manually selected a specific artist or song. Additionally, we thought of perhaps listing music concerts that people were attending and would perhaps want to connect with others attending the same concert. - There were a lot of future directions that we were considering, and while we were not able to implement them, we're excited to implement them, and other convenience features that we haven't even thought of, in the future.

Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: What it does: - SmallFund is a platform that allows small businesses to advertise their returned products and increase their chances of making profit on a sold item. A huge problem that small businesses face is not being able to resale returned products which leads to loss of profits and heavy wastage of goods. Using our platform, small businesses will be able to upload pictures of their refunded items with a small description and wholesale them to the public for the chance to make a profit. How it works: - Sellers (small businesses) can create a profile on the website to register and login. Once logged into the platform and validated, they can start to create items by uploading an image and providing a name, description, and price of the returned product. Our custom ML algorithm will check if the item is defective based on the image uploaded and determine if it is viable to be uploaded into the database and displayed on the platform for consumers to see. Once it is on the platform, consumers can easily go and buy the item for a lower price and sellers will be notified if their products get sold. Challenges we ran into: - Some challenges we ran into were integrating the NCR apis to help maintain the item catalog and seller database. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We're proud of creating a fully functional platform that allows sellers to display items and consumers to buy items.

Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - Developing blockchain based art (NFTs) using software seemed intriguing to the team, but we wanted to find a unique and impactful use case. What it does: - Ohm's Plumbing transforms the standard SPICE circuit schematic file type into a uniquely generated, animated piece of plumbing art. The art style leverages the age-old comparison drawn between pipework and Ohm's law to produce a piece that is not only interesting to look at, but one that useful in understanding electronics. How we built it: - Using Python, we developed a SPICE file parser, a unique generation algorithm for placing the circuitry in 2D space, a "pipe" (wire) routing algorithm, and a graphic rendering application using OpenCV. Challenges we ran into: - Routing wires efficiently from each component in 2D space was definitely the biggest challenge. The algorithm has a lot of conditionals to ensure no routes are crossed as well as maintaining the rotation of pipes to show seamless flow. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - Being able to successfully map some basic test examples of RC circuits as well as a more complex example. Uploading our generated Ohm's Plumbing art to OpenSea as NFTs! What we learned: - We need sleep to function! What's next for Ohm's Plumbing: - Further refining the routing algorithm to fail less.

Moreover, I was also looking at the security side, which is a very important thing to be kept in mind for these types of projects. Also, it was a bit difficult for us to collaborate in a virtual setting but we somehow managed to finish the project on time. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - I explored so many things within 48 hours. It was a tad difficult for us to collaborate in a virtual setting but I'm proud of finishing the project on time which seemed like a tough task initially but happily were also able to add most of the concepts that I envisioned for the app during ideation. Lastly, I think the impact our project could have is a significant accomplishment. Especially, trailing the current scenario of COVID19, this could really be a product that people find useful! - This project was especially an achievement for us because this time the experience was very different than what I have while building typical hackathon projects, which also includes heavy brainstorming, extensive research, and yes, hitting the final pin on the board. What I learned: - A lot of things, both summed up in technical & non-technical sides. Also not to mention, I enhanced our googling and Stackoverflow searching skill during the hackathon :) What's next for HealthCord: - As previously mentioned, HealthCord is one of the most technically sound projects we have made till now, and I would love to keep it open-sourced indefinitely so that anyone can contribute to the project since we are aiming to expand the wings of our project beyond the hackathon. Apart from fine-tuning the project, I am also planning to integrate new user-intuitive features such as refined User/Patient access, easy checkout option for hospitals, adding more such IoT-based inter-device support for maximizing our audience interaction. Apart from these, a lot of code needs to be refactored which does include CSS improvements for desktop preview as I couldn't hit so much under limited time.

Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - I was inspired to build this project because I know personally, and I'm sure others can relate, is that as a student you are constantly downloading files and when they all clutter in your download's folder, it can be very tedious to organize it and find all the files you need quickly. What it does: - Currently, this script only takes the files from your downloads folder and reorganizes them to the respective subfolders inside the download's folder. This way, the downloads' folder stays clean and allows you to look through them at a later time. How we built it: - I built this using python. I imported the os library alongside the shutil library(allows for high level file operations). Challenges we ran into: - Some challenges I ran into was setting the destination path, as when I just used a single backslash this would not work, so I had to use a double backslash. Still don't know why.... Accomplishments that we're proud of: - I'm proud to get my first python automation running smoothly. What we learned: - I learned that libraries allow for endless projects and that there are also many ways to preform a task in python, some more efficient than others. What's next for Automate Moving Files: - This script can be later adapted to rename and organize the files based on different criteria such as when you download it, from where you download it or even reading the file to see if maybe it is a certification or textbook and needs to go in your school folder or if it's just a random meme from your buddy and needs to go in the images\\fun folder.

Does it introduce new ideas, methods, or perspectives that are significantly different from existing ones? Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - I was inspired to make a satirical, humorous site for FreeCodeCamp with basic utilization of HTML and CSS. I enjoy creating pages in a light-hearted manner that can help viewers indulge in a bit of laughter. What it does: - This site roughly relates to a mock tribute page, where Zoidberg from Futurama is contemplating whether he is an octopus or a crab. The page offers (mostly gag) information about Zoidberg and his friends. How we built it: - I used Codepen and incorporated HTML and CSS to get the skeleton of my page created. I was somewhat able to use Flexbox features and put my basic knowledge of both languages to the test. Challenges we ran into: - I had some trouble properly organizing my HTML. I still have some confusion about the most sufficient layout of a page. Other issues were related to my CSS, which I have very basic comprehension of, so my page is not as intricately designed as I would like. Scaling was a huge issue as well for me. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - I'm very happy with how I was able create my page thus far from bare bones. It really tested my understanding of HTML/CSS and to see my creation come alive was very satisfying. What we learned: - Since this was a previous project I worked on, for this specific challenge I was able to further test myself with RBG color schemes and was able to implement the exact hues and colors I preferred. For the challenge criteria, I changed around my border colors, background colors, and changed 3 different colors from my previous work (rgba(255, 130, 0, 0.8), rgba(10, 150, 250, 0.8), rgba(0, 120, 90, 0.6) ). What's next for Website Mock-up With 3 Colors: - I would love to study color theory more in order to understand the importance of different color combos. In other words, learning more about color cohesiveness for a page will most definitely help with user accessibility, ease, and functionality.

Project Description: Inspiration and What It Does: - Originally we wanted to come up with a tool that could make webpages friendlier for color blind users by modifying colors. However, we came across an article that states, "it is not possible to predict what a color blind users sees with 100% accuracy" as there are different types of color blindness. - We took inspiration from some of the suggestions made by the article, and learned that clickable areas and texts on the web are often delineated by color which can create challenges to users with color deficiencies. Therefore we decided to create Link Liner to underline all clickable texts on a webpage to help color blind users locate clickable texts quickly. How we built it: - We built it with Google Chrome Extension MV3. Challenges we ran into: - Didn't what would be the best approach to make webpages more accessible to color blind users because we did not have much knowledge about it ourselves. Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We did the project pretty quickly and learned some new things about color blindness.

Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Inspiration: - This project was inspired by the weather script challenge listed for day 1 of LHD: Build. What it does: - Type in the name of any city around the world to look up how the weather is there! (Make sure to type a valid city name!) How I built it: - Using the OpenWeatherMap API, the JS script fetches weather data asynchronously for the city inputted by the user, then returns a small weather app-like widget with some basic weather information. A live "demo" (weather.html) is hosted by GitHub Pages on the microsite linked below, and can be accessed by clicking Day 1: Weather on the homepage. Challenges I ran into: - This was the first time I wrote an async/await script, and I'm also pretty unfamiliar with API calls, so it took quite long to figure out the JS code and to get it working as I wished. What I'm proud of/what I learned: - I'm glad to have learned more about async/await, using APIs, and practicing my JavaScript skills in addition to very basic front-end/web development in this challenge.

Project Description: Inspiration: - From the weather challenge on day 1 What it does: - Gets the current weather for a city that the user specifies How we built it: - Using python, importing the requests and BeautifulSoup4 packages Challenges we ran into: - Lack of good websites to scrape from, web data requires javascript to run before displaying the html Accomplishments that we're proud of: - Found another way to write a function that checks the weather. Previously, I made a command to do the same but with the use of API's. What we learned: - That web scraping using bs4 directly is not very efficient to check for weather. Many sites will not display the code that displays the weather data immediately, as javascript needs to be run first. This can be fixed using selenium webdriver, which may be a solution to implement later on. What's next for Weather.py: - I will utilize different ways to check the weather rather than web scraping, namely using API's instead of scraping. This will allow me to gather more data, such as the weather for the next day.

Usefulness: How practical and appropriate is the project in addressing the problem, situation, or challenge it targets? Does it effectively solve a real-world issue or meet a specific need? Project Description: Meet-Mate: You best mate in meets!: - Inspiration: - Do you zone out in the middle of your video call?\nAre you super productive and prefer to multitask by attending calls and doing something else? - To whom of us didn’t it happen?\nSince March 2020, we all have been working online and have attended a lot of meets and calls for different purposes. Sometimes due to a monotonous schedule or due to back-to-back meetings or sometimes because of mandatory virtual presence in the meets, it gets tiresome to keep up with everything and reach the day-end without getting frustrated.\nTo help with this issue, we came up with a project Meet-Mate. What it does: - Meet-mate is a chrome extension that alerts you whenever extra attention is needed in the meeting and it auto-generates the notes which the user can download in the form of pdf. How we built it: - We created this chrome extension using Javascript and HTML. As of now, it is implemented for Google Meet and in the future, we are planning to make it available for other platforms. - This extension parses the captions of the call and alerts whenever someone says your defined string. It uses captions to get the transcript of the meet. The background script observes the captions and saves them in chrome storage. When you click the download button it takes all the transcript which has been saved till the moment in the storage, compiles it into pdf, and then serves you. Data automatically gets deleted when a new meeting is joined. Try it Out usinggit clone: Challenges we ran into: - \n Understanding the dynamics of HTML, CSS, Javascript to chrome extension was tricky\nWhile generating the alert for defined keywords, we were getting a lag in alert sound once the keyword is encountered, this issue took a lot of our time and effort to get solved.\n Accomplishments that we're proud of: - We began working on the solution for this hackathon a few hours after it started. But, we successfully implemented both the main features of Meet-Mate within a very short period of time. What we learned: - \n Developing a chrome extension and the different use cases\nTime - management and Teamwork\n What's next for MeetMate: - As of now, Meet-Mate is working perfectly fine for Google meets. We are planning to incorporate it with other online meetings platforms and for YouTube. - Currently, the extension uses captions to implement features and in the future, we are planning to generate notes and alert through voice detection using Machine Learning.
