SplitStreamr harnesses mesh networking to distribute the streaming of songs between connected devices, splitting the data cost of downloading the music evenly. One device acts as the music playing device, where a user works with a standard music playing interface to choose songs to listen to. Other devices can join the network as Nodes, lending their data connections to the common good. The more devices in the mesh, the lower the data required by each device to stream a song and the happier your crew is.

Physical Salary VR is an experience built to portray and (literally) materialize the difference in daily earnings by different levels of income. This concept and the motivation behind our project comes from the following XKCD article titled Physical Salary: https://what-if.xkcd.com/118/. The article imagines a scenario in which the earnings by a certain worker is spawned physically into the room every second throughout the length of a work day. The sheer difference in earnings per second, minute, hour or day earned by different workers is easily analyzed using this method. This VR experience brings the article to life, by taking the user through a 'museum exhibit' in which different careers are portrayed, and their salaries can be visualized.
Wright Flyer VR is an educational virtual reality project for Google Cardboard that places the user back in time to 1903 when the Wright Brothers flew their first flight. Users are immersed in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina from the first-person perspective of Wilbur Wright. Orville Wright explains to the user a brief history as well as an educational run-down of all of the components that made the first machine-powered flyer so special. After the explanation and control rundown, the user is able to fly the first machine-powered flyer.
Financial Planning is an important aspect of people's lives if they want to retire in a comfortable way. The earlier money is saved, the better. Sometimes it's difficult to visualize and place importance on events that may not happen for 40 years; the short-term benefits of using the money that should be placed toward retirement/smart financial investment decisions for luxury goods or fun activities is more immediate and easier to think of. Thus, by placing an imagined future where the user can experience the retirement that they have been able to save for, we hope that the long-term impact of decisions made now will be more clearly felt.
Mage Knight is a top down RPG Dungeon Crawler in which you, the Mage Knight fight off various swarms of enemies.

Citrus Keyboard is a reimagination of the onscreen keyboards used for a Playstation or Xbox. With the traditional keyboard, in order to select just one character you have to scroll across the whole keyboard. It's painful and slow, and gets in the way of playing games. Citrus Keyboard seeks to solve this problem. Using the natural gesture of rotating a joystick, we partition the alphabet in different zones, so that it is possible to type by making a few rotations.
Dungeon Maze VR puts a spin on the classic Maze. It immerses the user in an environment where they must try and reach the end of the maze in a medieval setting, with frightening obstacles.

For a UI/UX Design course at the University of Florida, our team was assigned to work with Royal Bank of Canada on redesigning their Mobile Wallet application. They felt that the application was limited in what it allowed users to accomplish and was visually outdated. They tasked us with designing an effective application capable of handling the current limited functionality as well additional features we felt brought value to the user of our own devising.
