## Inspiration

* Our team believed safety is the key factor while driving, since texting and drive has become a growing issue and nearly 25% of ALL car accident are cause by texting and driving, we wanted to reduce this probability. Almost everyone has a slight temptation to use your phone while driving even though we know it's the wrong thing to do, we wanted to give that access without ever touching your phone.

## What it does

* Safe drive is an AI that will connect to your via Bluetooth on your phone and gives you access to your phone without ever touching using voice commands.

## How we built it

* Amazon Alexa. Firebase. Angular 2. Ionic 2,

## Challenges we ran into

* Applying Push notifications to Amazon Echo. Amazon hasn't release any info on implementing to method for Alexa to speak without us actually activating it with a wake up. But as most hackers, don't we always find a way to go around these type of situations?

## Accomplishments that we're proud of

* We are proud to have created a safe driving system for the public so driver can handle texting and driving while remaining safe.

## What we learned

* 1,600,000 accident per year, 330,00 injuries per year, and about 6 times more likely to cause an accident that driving while intoxicated are all caused by texting and driving.

## What's next for Safe Drive

* Increase the awareness of texting and drive.
## Inspiration

Every one of us has a variety of hobbies and things we are interested in. When meeting new people, it can often be difficult and take time to discover all the things you have in common.

Perhaps that stranger you shared a bit of small talk with also loves the same obscure video game that you do. Perhaps your friend of six months is also a fan of the same music band; you just never realized since that topic never happened to float up in conversation.

Jungo is about taking initiative and seeking out birds of a feather to have meaningful relationships with right from the beginning.

## What it does

Users can login to Jungo and search for and select their interests. They can then discover which other users have also selected the same particular interest, as well as the users that they share multiple interests with.

## How we built it

We built this website by using the Facebook Graph API as the source of the possible interests. Keywords in the search bar locate corresponding Facebook pages. We used MongoDB as the database for storing the interests that users select to perform queries and aggregations. Everything was hosted on Azure, with our application running in a virtual machine and MongoDB in Docker.

## What's next for Jungo

Some possible features in future include: filtering of search results, a recommendation engine, ability to chat with other users, location-based filtering of users.
## Inspiration

The inspiration for our project stems from the increasing trend of online shopping and the declining foot traffic in physical stores. Our goal was to provide a unique and engaging experience for customers, encouraging them to visit physical stores and rediscover the joy of in-person shopping. We wanted to create an interactive and entertaining shopping experience that would entice customers to visit stores more frequently and foster a deeper connection between them and the store's brand.

## What it does

Our project is an AR scavenger hunt experience that gamifies the shopping experience. The scavenger hunt encourages customers to explore the store and discover new products they may have otherwise overlooked. As customers find specific products, they can earn points which can be redeemed for exclusive deals and discounts on future purchases. This innovative marketing scheme not only provides customers with an entertaining experience but also incentivizes them to visit stores more frequently and purchase products they may have otherwise overlooked.

## How we built it

To create the AR component of our project, we used Vuforia and Unity, two widely used platforms for building AR applications. The Vuforia platform allowed us to create and track image targets, while Unity was used to design the 3D models for the AR experience. We then integrated the AR component into an Android application by importing it as a Gradle project. Our team utilized agile development methodologies to ensure efficient collaboration and problem-solving throughout the development process.

## Challenges we ran into

One of the challenges we faced was integrating multiple APIs and ensuring that they worked together seamlessly. Another challenge was importing the AR component and creating the desired functionality within our project. We also faced issues with debugging and resolving technical errors that arose during the development process.

## Accomplishments that we're proud of

Despite the challenges we faced, we were able to achieve successful teamwork and collaboration. Despite forming the team later than other groups, we were able to effectively communicate and work together to bring our project to fruition. We are proud of the end result, which was a polished and functional AR scavenger hunt experience that met our objectives.

## What we learned

We learned how difficult it is to truly ship out software, and we are grateful to have joined the hackathon. We gained a deeper understanding of the importance of project planning, effective communication, and collaboration among team members. We also learned that the development process can be challenging and unpredictable, and that it requires perseverance and problem-solving skills. Additionally, participating in the hackathon taught us valuable technical skills such as integrating APIs, creating AR functionality, and importing projects onto an Android application.

## What's next for Winnur

Looking forward, we plan to incorporate Computer Vision technology into our project to prevent potential damage to our product's packaging. We also aim to expand the reach of our AR scavenger hunt experience by partnering with more retailers and enhancing the user interface and experience. We are excited about the potential for future development and growth of Winnur.
