Show moreIn the construction industry, safety is obviously a big concern. Companies take many precautions to reduce the number of incidents that occur to reduce costs and save lives. As one of these precautions, construction companies purchase extra safety equipment to save the lives of workers to supplement regular required products such as hard hats. However, despite all of the safety equipment that is used, accidents still occur. For example, there was a flood in Chicago in 1992 which cost more than two billion dollars in reparations because a worker placed a wooden piling into the wrong place. Tyche Technologies will solve this problem by providing accident prevention technologies that use augmented reality (AR) to enhance the awareness of the construction worker. This additional information will let the worker know where key construction hazards are, such as the location of pipes and cables that run underground. Our team will develop a business plan and a prototype to demonstrate the feasibility of this project and attract potential sponsors/investors. The business plan will outline the market and financial feasibility of this product as well as any other problems/concerns that we foresee. The prototype will demonstrate how an AR environment can be created and relevant information uploaded and displayed to a user.

Show moreThe purpose of this IPRO is to develop a robust, working prototype that can automatically monitor and detect a problem with a milling machine at A. FInkl & Sons Co. This IPRO is in its fourth semester and there are two challenges remaining: (1) alerting management to the detection of broken teeth during machining; and (2) developing spatial representations of items undergoing heat treatment. However, A. Finkl & Sons has asked us to concentrate solely on the goal of finding a way to detect when a break occurs in one of the milling teeth and then alert the mechanic monitoring the machine in order to replace it. This system will involve measuring vibrations using an accelerometer or by the use of laser detection. The goal of this IPRO is to research, test, and inform A. FInkl & Sons of the best solution to invest in, therefore they can decide what is better for their company.
