Entree.ai

Entree.ai is a Google Assistant action that makes ordering meals via voice as easy as having a normal conversation. Entree.ai does this by combining a NLU model created specifically for food ordering, which allows it to process complex food order queries. This is bolstered alongside a conversational voice based user experience that is exactly that: conversational. Current solutions make voice-based food ordering possible, but nigh unusable. Entree.ai hopes to become an Uber Eats of voice, which if adopted at scale, can lead to increased sales for restaurants and more pleasant experiences for customers.

How Can a Dollar Generate Data?

We reimagined how a dollar can generate data. The Food Access Partnership on Vashon Island distributes cash to the community to minimize costs of locally grown food, but the paper currency they create and distribute suffers from low redemption rates. Improving this system, our solution provides real time data for partnering nonprofits and farmers while preserving the familiar paper “Farm Buck.” Now, our stakeholders can track Farm Bucks through the system and encourage users to redeem them at farmer’s markets and farm stands. Placing data in the hands of organizers, we’re helping Vashon Islanders address food equity in their community.

Increasing Browsing and Discoverability Through Virtual Bookshelves

Being able to browse print collections is an important step to discovering information. This project explores the impact of using virtual bookshelves at ASU Library to create a browsing experience for those not in physical library spaces. The Library’s development team has agreed to redesign an existing virtual bookshelf application to meet the goals of this project. This project identifies communities to share this tool with and outlines a specification document to aid the development team in their redesign. This application will allow the Library to build partnerships across campus and provide opportunities to browse and discover information.

LANA

LANA was created to improve the English learning experience of students of our sponsor, Transcend Academy. It was developed as an all-encompassing solution that combines video conferencing, instant messaging and whiteboarding into a single web tool. Until LANA the instructors at Transcend Academy used multiple services to facilitate teaching which was often irksome for the non-tech savvy users. LANA was developed to streamline and simplify this complex process.
