Show moreBuilding upon the previous semesters’ work, IPRO 315 has been devoted to improving fast food drive-through order accuracy through modern technology. We divided into two teams with separate and specific goals: 1) the Wireless team implemented Shure transmitters and receivers into the server and client modules to make the connection between the restaurant and kiosk wireless, and ensured that the audio fidelity did not degrade from the wired connection, and 2) the Voiceless team designed and programmed an iPad application used to place orders within a short range of the same kiosk, ensuring a first-in-first-out queue compatible with the existing drive-through queue

Show moreIPRO 346 is put together to work with and assist Pentair Water Company. The main task is to collect condensate from commercial HVAC systems in attempt to quantify it and test the chemical content of it. These tasks will be completed so that a feasible use or uses can be developed for the condensate water. The use or uses will be backed by not only the collected data but market and business analysis as well. The uses for the collected condensate water and the data collected will be presented in a formal technical paper. This will include detailed information about the quantity and chemical content of the condensate. The uses proposed will be based on the amount of condensate produced and what Pentair products such as pumps and filters can be used to accomplish these uses. This will ultimately determine a „green‟ solution for condensate harvesting and will incorporate Pentair‟s existing products. The project plan is a report on the current work plan and the direction in which the IPRO is headed. This is subject to change as the summer semester progresses. It also includes a brief history and background about Pentair and condensate harvesting in general. Finally it includes a team breakdown which includes more specific tasks to be accomplished as well as a Gantt chart show the key deliverables and their deadlines.

Show moreThe goal of this project is to identify and provide speech intelligibility benchmarks in different noisy environments. Being able to comprehend speech can vary depending on location and noise level of its surroundings. With that in mind, the project’s purpose for the semester will focus on analyzing and experimenting on those comprehensive speech variations that prevent intelligibility. We will then propose a viable solution for speech intelligibility improvements.

Show moreThe studio focuses on a specific project, but in an investigative and experimental manner. This semester, the project is a University Campus of a medium size, located in Dubai, UAE, currently under design in the College of Architecture, Illinois Institute of Technology. The class will be divided into three working groups. Group 1 was assigned to the main University Building, Group 2 was assigned to the College of Engineering Building and Group 3 was assigned to the Student Center Building. Every group will develop energy conscious concepts for the design with special consideration to integrate PV, wind energy and other applicable technologies. Each group will survey and conduct extensive research on traditional architecture that is deeply rooted in the culture and religion. The end result of each project is expected to consist of cutting edge architectural solution, which will help provide insight into methods for integrating environmental concerns into architectural design process.

Our IPRO is currently dealing with solutions for Juarez, Mexico and Chicago, Illinois. These two places are very different in climate, culture, as well as economy. Our IPRO this semester will focus on applying the prototype from last semester to these two regions, while making adjustments as needed. We will continue the research into systems which will be advantageous to each situation and develop them accordingly. Once we get a better understanding as to how we can apply our prototype to these situations we will be better able to apply the prototype to various other countries throughout the world.

Show moreThe IPRO 347 team was sponsored by Abrasive-Form, Inc. to create a paperless solution for file storing. Abrasive-Form, Inc. currently stores their job folders in filing cabinets. Documents are added to the job folder from various departments as the project circulates throughout the company. Once the project is completed, the job folder is filed into the company’s archives. To date, this has led to several problems for Abrasive-Form, Inc. As the company expands, they have to dedicate large portions of their offices to store old job folders. A lot of time is wasted as employees travel to and from storage to look up information from the old job folders. Furthermore, because there are several departments within the company that reference the job folders, they are often misplaced or lost. In addition, if there were a disaster, such as a fire, all the files would be permanently lost. In response to these problems, the IPRO 347 team has worked with Abrasive-Form, Inc. to develop an electronic content management system. Last semester, the IPRO team consulted Abrasive-Form, Inc. to determine the best possible solution for their problem. After initial consultation the team divided into subgroups to investigate possible digital content management solutions based on Abrasive Form, Inc.’s needs and wants. Four possible programs were presented to the company and, ultimately, the program SharePoint was selected. SharePoint was chosen because its features met the most of Abrasive Form, Inc.’s requirements. This semester’s job will be to create a fully working version of SharePoint from last semester’s prototype. In addition, this semester’s IPRO will also be responsible for full implementation of this working version on Abrasive-Form, Inc.’s servers and the creation of an instructional program and guide for the employees of Abrasive-Form, Inc so that the company may begin its transition to a paperless database by the end of the year.
