Show moreIn this project, students will help the staff of the Lugenia Burns Hope Center develop the leadership capacities of the people of Bronzeville.Working behind the scenes in this non-profit organization as web masters,document designers, information managers, business consultants, and project coordinators, students will not only have the opportunity to learn more about this historic, African-American community but also play a role in itsrevitalization. The Hope Center was established in 1994 and is located on the main campus of IIT, at 34th and State. For the past five years, the center has offered classes and workshops for emerging leaders in Bronzeville. At this time, the Center wishes to recruit more students, to track its graduates and learn more about the graduates current work in the community. Students will help the staff reach these goals in three ways: by developing a database ofalumni, creating profiles of the graduates as community leaders, and designing promotional material about the Hope Center in the form of a brochure, a newsletter, and an interactive, multi-media web site. This work would be framed by a business plan that outlines previous achievements of the Hope Center and forecasts goals for the next 3E years. Because the Center lacks the resources that would enable them to complete these tasks on its own, it welcomes all IIT students with interests in leadership, community development, and African-American history.

Show moreDuring the milling operations at an industrial steel producer like A. Finkl & Sons (Chicago, IL), a substantial amount of time and money is lost due to the fact that cutting inserts break catastrophically and without warning. The goal of this project is to devise an effective means by which a cutting insert breakage event can be quickly and reliably detected, thereby minimizing damage to the steel and other cutting inserts, and also freeing technicians to attend multiple machines at a time. This increases the productivity of their operations, and it has the potential to save A. Finkl & Sons substantial costs per year in time lost in rework and prematurely broken cutting inserts.

Show moreThe mission of IPRO 333 is to assist the Crop to Cup Company with the design and building of an enclosure for a temporary storage facility within the vicinity of their largest producing farming zone for robusta coffee in the Mbale region of Uganda. The sponsor, along with the team, has decided that the best method for addressing the local and global needs of the farmers is to present the research and design personally. Therefore, IPRO 333 will be fundraising to help finance the forthcoming trip to Uganda to present to the farming communities.

Show moreUsers of speech recognition technology often hyperarticulate (i.e., exaggerate) their speech in response to recognition failures and subsequent requests to repeat (e.g., \I'm sorry, I didn't understand, please repeat the input."). Hyperarticula- tion usually leads to further recognition failure. The goal of the current project is to develop a protocol for testing di erent talker characteristics of voice prompts in speech recognizers with an aim towards minimizing hyperarticulated speech from users. This IPRO is equally suited to students interested in the more tech- nical aspects of acoustic phonetics and voice recognition as well as the cognitive aspects of predicting user behavior in technology-mediated environments.

The constraints may utilize each and every type or combination of subject, object, or environment information extracted from sources internal or external to the controlled computer system and may evaluate the content or context of the information extracted to enable refined and dynamic access after the role permission assignment and immediately before every access grant without the reassignment of roles.

Show moreOur objectives are fairly straightforward. If the genetic code can be called its own language, then we want to become fluent in it. The current technology does not allow us the ability to “write our own novel” (i.e. make a new organism from scratch), but what we can do is write our own pamphlet. This semester, we are trying to complete our test case, which is to create a colony of Escherichia coli that flash different colors all in unison. Once we complete this task, we hope to export this system into higher organisms, such as Zebrafish (Danio rerio). We are also seeking to move forward conceptually by planning long term goals for the Ipro, such as the development of not just test cases, but new, useful organisms.

Show moreFabrication Laboratories (Fab Labs) were started as a community outreach program by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to provide digital fabrication tools for rapid prototyping to the general public. The Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago (MSI) has partnered with this IPRO to further develop their existing Fab Lab. IPRO 333 has been assigned the task of working with the Fab Lab administrators to design methodologies for furthering the use of the laboratory and determining its end goals for both the museum and the community. Once these goals are established, we will support them with a list of projects that we will create and execute. By working with the lab directors to broaden the possible uses of the lab, we hope to encourage hands-on learning in local schools. This will promote membership at MSI and involve the community in science and technology programs and education. To accomplish this, we have broken into two teams, each of which will focus on a different audience. The first team will be responsible for designing and creating programs for more advanced and knowledgeable users of the equipment specific to the Fab Lab, such as the students enrolled in the Science Achievers program as well as museum members; the second team will be responsible for designing and implementing programs for less advanced users with more constrained timeframes, such as visiting families or groups of school children.

Show moreLeveraging the existing technologies currently available in the marketplace enables the IPRO to create a team-networking solution that reaches more stakeholders and provides a richer, more enhanced venue for project collaboration. The solution devised by the IPRO must be easily accessible and interactive allowing for data capture, storage, retrieval and viewing amongst an array of end-user devices. To provide a successful solution, this IPRO will storyboard the concept over the summer, prototype the concept during the fall and execute usability studies the prototype during the spring semesters.
