KidFinance

In the app market, most money-saving apps have complicated UI and only target adults. KidFinance is a money-saving app targeting kids and teenagers. It allows user to develop a personalized financial record portfolio, with one of the simplest but attractive income/expense management and review functions. Moreover, to attract teens establishing money saving habit, they can set a money saving target and get award.

Animal shield

Nowadays we often see posts of finding lost animals on social media. Also, there are posts discussing discovering stray animals on streets. However, these social media are not effective enough, since the news feed of users will change from time to time.

Seen in this light, our team hopes to develop an application which solely focus on spreading information on finding lost pets and rescuing stray animals. Users can make use of our platform to seek help. Our application will also connect to the vet clinics to make finding vet more convenient. Our application will also update users with news focusing on pet-caring and pet issues, these news and useful pet-caring tips will give positive influence on users to increase their attention on animal rights.

Lost slime: a new home

Lost Slime is a Multiplayer-Educational-Rhythm game that runs on your web browser, written in javascript with Node.js, Express.js and Socket.IO. It is designed to be lightweight and responsive to run on any PC.

Find Slimies new houses! Players compete to stack the tallest pillar to gain a high ground — which helps Slimies in spotting new locations for housing. To stack a pillar block, players time their space-bars along with the music beats. There are also phrases or sentences intertwined, that players have to input correctly before pressing space-bar. With these two objectives carried out, Slimies can then jump on the newly stacked pillar block!

What’s more, there are two additional single-player modes, where players strive for stacking the tallest pillar in High-score Mode, as well as surviving as long as possible, in Survival Mode, before the camera catches up!

We set out in making the game casually improve players’ typing proficiency. It could be cheerful-lighthearted, or mechanically intensive. We have designed an additional beat-mapper program to translate music pieces into custom track information used by the game, in json format. Which means players can create authentic mappings with their favorite music!

Development of universal testing machine with digital image correlation system for soft and biomaterials

Research on the development of new types of biomaterials has become one of the major focus in the engineering field in recent years. The biomaterial is integrated with medical engineering so it can be engineered to interact with the biological system in the human body for the different medical purpose. In order to opt for the optimal biomaterial for a certain medical purpose, several testing related to the measurement of displacement and strain should be performed on the biomaterial. This project aim to develop an Universal Testing Machine (UTM) with Digital Image Correlation method (DIC) to provide a field true strain measurement and reduces the disturbance on the local mechanical response of the local mechanical response of the testing material, providing a better, more precise and immediate strain/displacement analysis of the experiment than using the extensometer.
