HolaHome
TADHack Hackathon is an international hackathon focuses on applications that uses VoIP APIs. In 2014 competition, we created a web application called "Holla Home" where "Holla" is Spanish for "Hi". The web application has a phone number reserved to it which the user can call. When user calls the phone number, he/she can give voice commands to conrol electrical switches at home. We implemented a voice API created by Nexmo to provide voice recognition functionality. Commands are sent to a web server (coded in PHP) which processes them then send commands over the internet to a Raspberry Pi that is connected to home circuit switches. The Raspberry Pi has a Python script which translates commands into electrical signals to turn switches on/off. The application had a confirmation system to acknowledge that task was completed. 

We won the 1st Place Award in Chicago.

VoiceHack
VoiceHack is an Android phone app that transcribes voice commands, which are sent to an Amazon AWS server, understood by Raspberry Pi, which would then command physical things (i.e. lights and doors) in a house, or any other different physical application

High Altitude Student Platform
HASP flight program is supported by the NASA Balloon Program Office (BPO) and Louisiana Space Consortium (LaSPACE). 
http://sites.wff.nasa.gov/code820/index.html

It's a balloon which carries up to twelve student payloads to an altitude of about 36 kilometers with a flight duration of 15 to 20 hours using a small volume, zero pressure balloon. Twelve prestigious universities around the U.S are participating in this project including IIT (Illinois Institute of Technology) which I am part of its team. 

Our team is to use three cameras to send live pictures to the ground control station during the flight, which needs using GPS device to synchronize everything. Also the team is studying the environment conditions like pressure, wind, humidity, and atmosphere in order to make sure that all the electronic devices will work well. 

My current task is to analyze the radio link between the transmission system and the ground control station, including the bit error rate (BER), signal to noise ration (SNR), and link budget.

IPRO 362: Innovating Processes & Curricula for Community-Based Environmental Service Projects
In this project, we worked with a community partner called C3 (The Chicago Conservation Corps) which supports adult volunteers (“Leaders”) who lead community‐based environmental service projects. The community partner asked us to do three different sub-projects. The one I worked on was finding an inventory solution for their stock within a total cost of no more than $200. After researching, analyzing, and synthesizing almost all the possible solutions, we came up with three proposals that fit their criteria. Eventually, they picked up one of them, so we offered them a complete analysis and test of that one, in addition to a step-by-step tutorial.

        I have taken several classes with abed, in addition to three hackathons in which he showed great interest and extraordinary energy, as well as many brilliant ideas that contributed to the projects we worked on together.
I always enjoy working with Abed, because of the optimism he puts in me, and the team as a whole, which in many cases led to surprising turnaround in the project and sometimes it reached to prizes we won!
Bigger, Bolder and Better. Innovation at Lenovo unleashed! Proud of the team driving this program. Thanks team!
