3DuPrint – HKU 3D Print Cloud Submission System

The print jobs to 3D printers in HKU are handled manually by making a schedule in the booking system, instead of a cloud 3D print submission system.​

The app aims to make it easier for students and teachers to submit jobs to HKU’s 3D printers by automating the process of submitting new jobs​​. It maximizes the efficiency of printing new jobs​. Features like auto-scheduling of jobs allows to minimize the empty time between jobs​.

And a approval system can reject invalid prints​ and make printing managed by tutors or approved users​, avoiding inexperienced users to use wrong filament or break the printer​.

HKU Robocon 2022 @ 7th Inno Show

The annual Robocon competition project allows HKU engineering students from different disciplines to design and fabricate innovative robots with an integration of various advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, computer vision, and real-time embedded control. Besides, it provides hands-on experiences on product design, prototyping, CNC machining, design and fabrication of electric circuit and PCB, control program development, etc.

Furthermore, senior members mentor junior members in each year and hence valuable experiences, knowledge, and skills for design and fabrication of robots can be sustained for next year’s competition. In addition, it enables the HKU students to exchange their knowledge and skills with students from local and other countries’ universities. Therefore, it motivates the students to engage in experiential learning via exploring and integrating various advanced technologies. As a result, students’ innovation and teamwork abilities would be enhanced.

QuestBoard

The idea of QuestBoard comes from quest boards in RPGs where dispatchers post quests, and the heroes accept quests. Heroes are people who start their adventures and earn their living by completing challenging quests. Dispatchers are people who post quests, and they usually give rewards to the heroes who complete their quests in return. Our app is an app which brings this system into real life.

Unlike existing freelancer platforms and job seeking platforms, QuestBoard focuses on daily tasks which utilize all kinds of skills and are more flexible. Everyone can be heroes with their kindness, and they can earn rewards by finishing quests.

QRun

A game app deigned to assist in the orientation programme of organisations, where the user must be made familiar with the surroundings. The user is given a prompt image and has to locate where the image has been clicked by scanning a QR code sticker present at that location.

ScratchGO

20,000 new games (daily) are getting shared to MIT’s programming platform – Scratch – and yet most of these games cannot be played on mobile devices due to the lack of keyboard inputs! That’s why I created a web app that simulates keyboard inputs on mobile devices – a portal for Scratch games to be played on the go.
