The Gates of Logic is part of a research project under Professor Steve Engels.

The research is aimed at teaching high school students digitial logic as an alternative means to the classroom through an educational game. The project concluded after showing a strong correlation in testing, showing more "highlighted" objectives lead to, on average 20% higher test scores from high school students than without highlighting regardless of previous knowledge. This testing also shows, at least a 27.5% increase in understanding of digital logic among testers in a game format vs. a traditional classroom.

The project consisted of scripts coded in C# from movement to objective indicators. The scripts were developed to be a modular system of Triggers and reactions to allow easy expansion and implementation that proved very useful in the long-term.
The game was developed using Unity(3D) and C#.

PhotoManager is a Java program that allows the user to manage, view, tag, and organize their photo repository on their local drive. The user can conveniently navigate through their selected photo repository, mark photos with tags that will appear in the file name, search through their repository for tagged images, and view the tag history at any time.

PhotoManager utilizes a JavaFX interface which the user interacts with. On startup, the user chooses a directory in which their photo repository is located. They can then navigate through sub-directories of the root, and view the photos in the repository. The user can enter cached or new tags for the photos, and each photo can have multiple tags. The user can also manage tags separately, as well as searching by a specific tag in the whole repository. As a bonus feature, the program generates a suggested tag for each image based on the content of the image, by utilizing the Inception library and Tensorflow from Google.

The database for the PhotoManager is generated on startup when the user specifies the root of the repository. Each image file and directory is represented by an object, and the directory tree is represented by a recursive definition, with each directory storing its children directories. The tags added to the photos are stored in the corresponding photo's file name along with the original file name, and on startup the program goes through every photo in the repository by recursion to update the database with the stored tags. The graphical user interface is implemented in JavaFX, using the Model-View-Controller design pattern.
Developed in Java with Tensorflow, Maven and JDK 7.

Free-Finder allows University of Toronto students to find out how many people are on wifi per building in the University of Toronto's St. George campus.

The program works by scanning the University of Toronto's wifi nodes for the number of connected users to determine how many students are in each building and changes the data into a more manipulatable form.

The goal is to be able to guide students to a less trafficed building to study in with the ability to monetize to local businesses based on lower trafficed buildings in the area and the students' movements.

Options include searching, by only libraries, searching by name, restricting by student body size, and sorting by most and least number of students.
Originally developed in Python, ported to Java.

Duck Hunt in a Cyclone is a recreation of Duck Hunt on the Nintendo 64 using Intel's Hurricane Student Development Board. The game consists of a single bird flying randomly around the screen whilst having a cross-hair that has the ability to shoot said bird. The objective is to hit at least 5/9 birds to progress to the next level.

7-Segment LED displays were used to display the current round, score, and number of shots remaining while the individual LEDs were used for the birds shot/escaped in the current round. The controls are ported to a keyboard using a PS/2 port. The controls are WASD to move and space to fire. The graphics are displayed through VGA and updated without the use of third-party software. The 256 bits of colours are generated through a mathematical equation to output the correct colour given the appropriate HEX value. The birds each moved randomly with a modified version of the fibonacci sequence mapped to appropriate keys to achieve better random movement.
The game was developed in Verilog.

Music Doctor allows users to find new artists to listen to based on their own library of artists.

The algorithm to suggest new artists is generated by statistics of documented artists.
Originally developed in Python, ported to Javascript.

Takes in the exported facebook messages file and lays out the generated data on a timeline in an excel sheet for how often you message each person/group. Used to easily find how often and how long your conversations last for on Facebook Messenger.

The program smartly sorts your conversations by individual and group chats to encompass an overall picture of your activity with each person.

Accesses Facebook's Graph API to identify conversation recipient's registered Facebook name from their facebook ID rather than a possible nickname.

Includes options for whitelists, blacklists, and timeline restrictions.
Originally developed in Python, ported to Java.
