The Winner
The Trading Card Trader is an online trading system for people looking to buy and sell trading cards. This system is capable of keeping track of the cards a user uploads to the system, and allows the user to set a sale price for their cards. It is also capable of arranging trades of multiple cards between users and after calculating the money difference will transfer the money between players accordingly, tacking on a percentage on as a fee. It will also be able to run optical character recognition so that when a user uploads a card the system can analyze which card it is so the user doesn't have to upload all of the information themselves. Other than this the system has to be able to run statistical analysis on a large portion of the data so that users can make educated decisions on purchases. It will also be comprised of both a web-app and a phone-app to reach a wide audience. Another potential improvement later to the system will be to provide large re-sellers of individual cards the ability to post large libraries of cards and set prices, while not allowing the user to propose any trades, but instead make purchases only.

Runner Ups
1. Replacement for current Airborne
Imaging Multispectral Sensor (AIMS-1) software, Streams and
Frame grabber I/O Systems, Mt. Holyoke
College Geoprocessing Lab
The goal of this project is to design a
system to handle input coming in from the AIMS-1 sensor, allow for
data pre-processing, manage data storage, customize output, and allow
for in-field data analysis/verification. The current solution uses
Streams, a software developed by I/O Systems in Canada, and requires
the use of two specialized PCI cards for managing data storage to two
SCSI drives. The new system would remove the dependency on the PCI
cards and the SCSI drives, and more importantly allow for new
functionality to be added to the system (such as changing the storage
medium, or adding extra pre-processing instructions) without having
to alter hardware components. The new system would also provide a
simple user interface for users to observe data as it is being
stored, and would provide options for converting stored data to other
formats.

2. For this project a book trade and management system for the RIT students. Students will be able to input books they own into the system and anyone else in the system will then be able to see the books and if the want or need the book can ask to purchase or trade with another book they own. The trades can be for a limited time or forever that will be left up to the parties involved in the trade. The system would be strictly for students attending RIT however could be extended in the future.

3. Creating a memory test application that would display a number of images at a set pace with a number of questions at the end based on the images shown. This application would require a way to create quizzes and save them to be added at the end each series of images. There would also need to be a way to configure the settings for each test to control the speed at which the images are displayed or how they are presented. After the end of a test the quiz results would be saved and reports could be generated to see how peoples scores on the test.
