2017-2018

reCapp

“reCapp” is a smartphone application providing the ability to establish, re-capture, and browse through repeat photograph points (RPP). As most smartphones employ the technology required and outlined in our methods section (e.g., a camera, compass, GPS, and the ability to level), we have built these functions into the application. We encourage broad adoption of this technique to establish baseline RPP of natural (and anthropogenic) systems across the globe.

Fire Dynamics Calculator

This app creates a mobile-friendly version of a spreadsheet currently used by fire investigators to assist them with developing and testing hypotheses regarding fire scenes. The app is capable of using validated and well-documented calculations to predict things like flame heights, fire sizes, flammable mixtures of gasses and conductive heat transfer.

 

2016-2017

Pattern Master

Engineering apparel patterns for proper clothing fit is an area that requires both science and art. As such there continues to be quite a lot of experimentation and analysis in order to achieve the proper fit of a garment. In the fashion industry, while there are guidelines for sizing, there is no standard. One of the most time-consuming components of this process is the comparison of the measurements of a sloper, or a standard pattern, to the fit model measurements, and making adjustments to the sloper so that the pattern will fit the body of the fit model. This app will provide all apparel and softgoods pattern engineers a useful tool to calculate measurements for pattern adjustments. In particular, apparel pattern making students and professionals alike will save time and increase accuracy by using the app. The pattern right app is also quite useful for developing different styles.

Divisionista

Division is one of the most difficult concepts to teach and for students to learn. Oftentimes, division is taught procedurally with little connection to conceptual understanding. When students fail to understand whole number division, it can cause them to misunderstand fractions and beyond. This app will help classroom teachers help their students understand division. Tutors and parents can also use this app to supplement instruction. The app will provide activities, games, and video instruction to help students, pre-service teachers, teachers, andparents learn how to divide whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and polynomials. It will grow with learner, meeting them where they are conceptually.
