Project: Memory Glass is intended to help Alzheimers patients with their day to day social interactions by providing them with real time reminders of the identities of the people they are currently speaking with. The technology is based off facial recognition and glass lens projection. Our attachment to glasses recognizes the face directly in front of the patient. and displays their name and relationship to the patient on t If the face is recognized as a loved one or caregiver then the Name and relationship are projected onto the patient’s glasses. This would inherently remove the need for patients to ask who someone is mid conversation and ultimately one day reconnect them to society.

Team: Hotel 4
Team Members: ASU Students: Guibin Song, Nana Kwame Okwae QUB Students: Gyan Wickremasinghe, Joshua Beatty
Project: Hotel 4 proposed a smart parking space monitoring system based on IoT technology to help people find vacant parkings as quick and easy as possible. The parking spaces are monitored by using wireless sensors or by utilizing image recognition technique, then the gathered parking vacancy information is sent to a cloud data center via wifi models. After the data being analyzed and integrated in the cloud center, the available parking information is shared to user end via smartphone apps, online map services and e-Tickets. Just one click on the smartphone or one asking to voice assistant devices is all needed to know exactly where to park. This proposed parking monitoring system can reduce a large amount of time, energy and money otherwise being wasted during searching the vacant parking, which is particularly helpful in cities with limited parking resources.
