Apr 29th
Success today for two DIT School of Computing teams in the Imagine Cup Software Design Finals which were hosted in Gleeson Theatre, DIT Kevin St. After two days of intense presentations in Microsoft’s Campus and in DIT, “Team Imaginote” were announced outright winners while “Team Cloud Hands” took second place. This represents the culmination of nine months of hard word for both teams and is a fantastic achievement for the students. Their projects have huge potential for further development and are a great example of how technology innovation can change lives – and the world. Team Imaginote will go on to represent Ireland at the world Imagine Cup finals in Poland in July.
Team Imaginote – A music and physical therapy application using sound beams (sonic momement sensors) that translate physical movements into beautiful patterns and sounds. The software was developed by Nikola Nevin(DT228) and Marco Castorina(DT584) with the help of Enable Ireland and Tyrrelstown Educate Together National School.
Team Cloud Hands – An amazing Tai Ch training simulation using 3D graphics, motion capture, speech recognition and augmented reality developed by Frank Han (DT584), Johnathan Lynch (DT584), Jonathan Plunket(DT228) and Xu Haoming(UL).
