PavDog

PavDog is an electronic, GPS-based dog containment system. The idea originates from the difficulty of containing your dog without physical boundaries like a fence. This project uses a shock collar to train your dog to remain within the bounds that you set. While there are many products that do address this problem, they each have disadvantages that we plan to improve.

TeleCast

The design goal of this project is to establish a system that will wirelessly transmit a cable signal to multiple TVs around the house. There are a number of ways to accomplish this job, some of which have previously been done. However, the existing solutions that are accessible commercially are altogether very limited in functionality and can be very time consuming to set up. The plan is to set up a system that is amazingly easy for the customer to set up and is awfully consistent.

Minimal-Movement Interactive Entertainment Interface

The aim of this project is to aid a user in doing independent interaction with a visual/musical device. The user will only need limited movement, but in this very limited movement, we will give him/her the chance to wholly control an MP3 player and all of the common commands that come with the technology. The implementation will be designed with a gesture manual so that definite motions will directly signify MP3 player commands.
