2
Projects Interactive Campus Map Global Positioning System - Device for the Visually Impaired Adjustable Table Project
3
ICM Objective: To help students with physical disabilities locate the best accessible path between campus locations by drawing a map Interactive Campus Map
4
Semester Goals For the first half of the semester, produce a working version of the ICM for the Engineering Mall area For the second half of the semester, expand area and plan improvements
5
Tasks Web interface needs to be integrated with back end code Database needs actual GPS coordinates Need a program to connect pieces of project Expand to more of campus Get user feedback – Plan new features
6
Web-Interface Facilitates channeling of the user input data to the best path implementation routine Simple and easy to use Needs to be easy to maintain for future semesters

Semester Timeline
11
GPS-DVI Global Positioning System - Device for the Visually Impaired
12
Overview To design and implement a portable device that will enable students who are visually impaired to navigate around campus by the use of the global positioning system.
13
Team Transition Integrated new members Catch up and distribute access to team resources Assessing tasks for recently acquired members Reorganizing directory structure to ease in future team transitions
14
Semester Goals Determine the node data structure, in addition to the program flow/class structure Work on component functions, integrate into program Develop prototype
15
Tasks Voice output solution Schedule parsing Best path –Turn-by-turn directions Project partner feedback – new features?
16
Current State Semi-working user interface –Building code input GPS Receiver interaction –Displays NMEA standard on screen Best Path Algorithm –Multiple versions of alpha quality algorithms
17
Current Semester Obtained Windows CE programming documentation Obtained hardware to use in the development of the project Alpha code written for the schedule parser button Reevaluated best path methods Met with Project Partner

Semester Timeline
19
Adjustable Table Project Table –Requirements: No more than 130 lbs 5 lbs of closed fist lifting force to adjust table Adjustable from 24 to 36 inches Less than $500 to manufacture –Status of Table Currently on 3 rd and final Prototype
20
Phases Completed (Adjustable table) 1.Specification development/planning 2.Conceptual design 3.Product design 4.Production 5.Redesign 6.Test and Survey 7.Submit for Production
21
Final Steps Drawing in AutoCad needs to be updated and finalized so project can be submitted Table needs to be tested by users
22
ICM Kiosk Requirements –Easy to use while in wheelchair –Print best path to classrooms –Obey all design standards for people that have a disability
23
Phases Completed (Kiosk) Specification development/planning Conceptual design Product design Production Service Redesign or retirement and disposal
