Sketching plays an important role in learning in the sciences. The process of sketching can help students think about and better understand scientific concepts. By sketching collaboratively, students can also compare their mental models with each other and share them with instructors in order to further enhance their understanding.
Using scrapy a python framework to scrape Sino Weibo without the API.
We will demonstrate a Software-defined networking (SDN) controller that orchestrates traffic engineering for adaptive bit rate video streaming. An OpenFlow-enabled SDN architecture in combination with MPEG-DASH constitutes an optimized and seamless video streaming platform. The GENI infrastructure was utilized to evaluate video traffic over current network architecture and SDN architecture.
Georgia Tech scientists and engineers who are working together to install a network of internet-enabled sea level sensors across Chatham County.
When a person goes missing, the ability to quickly canvas a large area is crucial.  However, many search and rescue missions occur in rough terrain where it can be difficult, slow, and even dangerous to cover on foot.  Drones have become a cost- and time-effective solution, able to quickly fly over areas of interest and provide a video feed from a mounted camera.  A pilot and spotter monitor the video feed through an app on a tablet or phone and watch for clues which might indicate where the missing person is located.
Seed is a sensor and electronics educational database developed for use at the Interactive Product Design Lab. The lab teaches designers electronic prototyping skills-- Seed assists in this mission by providing information on electronic components through an online database, physical RFID card library, and RFID sensing unit. Parts are categorized into 6 groups: logic, power, input, output, tools, and projects. When a student needs information about a component, they can select a card and place it on the RFID reader.
Self-directed online learning is becoming increasingly prevalent. We describe a study on the use of an online laboratory for self-directed learning through the construction and simulation of conceptual models of ecological systems. We analyzed the modeling behaviors of 315 learners and 822 instances of learner-generated models using a sequential pattern mining technique. We found three types of learner behaviors: observation, construction, and exploration. We found that while the observation behavior was most common, exploration led to models of higher quality.
In this project we intend to understand the gold standard of care in the domain for type 2 diabetes self management. Our design creates an experience for older adults of underserved communities to better improve point of care contact for type 2 diabetes in a useful and usable way.
We propose self-sustainable, intelligent sensor systems that can be easily retrofitted onto current vehicles.
The growing popularity of social media makes it increasingly difficult to keep up with the huge volumes of information they produce. We present SentenTree, a novel visualization technique that helps people gain a quick understanding of the key concepts and opinions expressed in a given social media text set. SentenTree can be used by both casual social media users and professional analysts.
A Self-powered Reversibly Deformable Cord Sensor for Natural Human Input
This project aims to provide resources for someone interested in a career in accessibility and inclusive design. Using storytelling, it aims to show people the varied paths that others have taken to achieve their goals, tools they have used, lessons learned and recommendations on how they may integrate accessibility practices into their current workflow.
Shape Machine is a new computational technology that fundamentally redefines the way shapes are represented, indexed, queried and operated upon. The technology solves the problem of shape matching in vector graphics for lines and arcs and for the complete range of the geometries used in geometrical modeling in CAD systems, and more broadly, generalizes the Find and Replace operators in Word processing to Geometry processing - for any type of shapes and arrangements of shapes and for different conventions of visual matching.
SilentSpeller enables mobile silent texting using a dental retainer with capacitive touch sensors to track tongue movement. Users type by spelling words without voicing.
We propose Silver Tape, a simple yet novel fabrication technique to transfer inkjet-printed silver traces from paper onto versatile substrates, without time-/space- consuming processes such as screen printing or heat sintering. This allows users to quickly implement silver traces with a variety of properties by exploiting a wide range of substrates. For instance, high flexibility can be achieved with Scotch tape, high transparency with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), heat durability with Kapton polyimide tape, water solubility with 3M water-soluble tape, and beyond.
