The list and descriptions of projects from the internal hackathon at Objectivity. The main thought behind IDEAapp_ is to create the most creative and innovative applications possible in a short time. Participants can choose any topic they want and create solution to any problem there is. The rules are simple: 10 teams, 3-5 people each, 2 days of non-work-related projects. The goal: to stay creative and take a break from everyday duties. And to do something fun. Plus, we are learning how to come up with innovative solutions and use cutting-edge technologies in practice.

3. FlashKa
Our idea is to build an innovative service that will make it easier
for students to learn new languages by converting a written or
printed text to digital flashcards available at any time. Students
will conveniently use their device cameras to scan their
surroundings, make their own dictionaries with associated
images and learn vocabulary with ease.
The application is going to guide a student through the learning
process and encourage them to practice every day. We would
like to use the latest technologies such as Azure Functions,
Azure Storage and Vision AI alongside with modern concepts of
PWA applications.
The application idea is flexible - it brings many possibilities for
enhancements. It may be useful for people willing to upskill
their vocabulary, especially for those attending language classes
at Objectivity.

4. Cicero
How often have you had a hard time locating that Payroll Team room
where you were supposed to settle a business trip? How often have you
wandered around the hallways of the office building desperately trying
to find that meeting room you were supposed to be in? How many stairs
climbed were forgotten just because you had no time to fill them in?
Inspired by Cicerone (an old-fashioned term of one who shows visitors
around and is a guide in museums and galleries) we would like to
introduce Cicero. It is an interactive office map which can be run on any
mobile device. It will be able to display all user's main points of interest
and their teammates location. It will also be able to navigate you to
them. Counting stairs will no longer be a problem, since it will happen
totally automatically.
The newly hired will get an interactive Tour de Office which will show
them around the most important parts of the Office. And these are just
a few of the many scenarios that will be possible with Cicero.

5. Selfon
Let’s imagine having a smartphone in your hand, taking pictures of
goods and selling them on OLX, Allegro, Ebay, etc. with only one click.
The App will speed up the process of posting offers, and it will take only
the time necessary to take a photo of your product.
There is a chance to commercialize the idea with Objectivity’s one –
there is no similar product available on the market. Based on
recognizing shapes, identifying what is in the picture and comparing the
photo with different ones on the Internet, we are able to post your offer.
Writing a description, choosing categories or thinking about the price
won’t be time-consuming anymore. After taking a photo, Selfon will
suggest the offer title and will provide you with details necessary to sell
the product. Categories will be chosen automatically and the price will
be suggested based onthe comparison of different bids.
We want to create PoC only for books but the outcomes will be copied
for different products.

6. Lessons Learned Yoda
Problem statement - Currently Lessons Learned are stored in a loosely
structured way on SharePoint. Such a loose structure does not allow
us to holistically analyse the data and take bold actions. - Solution -
Our main goal is to build a responsive web app to be used on a daily
basis. Have you got an idea of something that went well or wrong?
Put it there. In order to manage a growing number of records, we want
to use an AI algorithm for finding similar entries and grouping them
into a short list of repeatable entries without the need for any user
action. Fully automated. - Mission - We want this app to be helpful for
anyone starting a project, for the bid team and anyone who is already
in a project.
Capturing (at the very moment of occurrence) what good and bad
things we’re doing, as teams or individuals, we will be able to work on
eliminating the wrong habits and promote the good ones. In other
words – Enable learning from mistakes. - Think of the past to shape the
future. With data.

7. LanczMacz
Let us introduce LanczMacz, an innovative PWA application that
helps you pick your lunch in a fast and friendly manner. Every day,
the app will scan webpages and social media profiles of restaurants
and food trucks located near the Objectivity office, and will pull their
daily menus off them. Using AI, it will retrieve text from pdfs, images
and social media posts. For a great user experience, the dishes will
be presented in a visualised form as the application will match
images to the food on the fly. Moreover, we can check who else will
be having lunch in the chosen place at a given time - the application
will allow us to connect. Business goals:
_Positive atmosphere at work supports integration among guilds
and projects and lures best candidates.
_Time saved on decision-making process (where, when and with
whom to have lunch.
_Support of modern onboarding process - don`t let new employees
starve!
_Support of local businesses and community.

8. Queue Fighter
We’d like to fight queues! No more waiting in a long queue
for a pretzel or sandwich. Let's use diverse machine
learning and computing techniques and algorithms to
help employees spend minimal time waiting.
The happier the employees, the more billable time for the
employer. Win-Win.

9. Where is Majonez
The idea: Inbuilding navigation without using GPS. Use case: Within a store or an office, a user
would like to locate a specific item or a room. The app: In order to display a map with a list of
directions, the app needs three elements:
_a starting point (the most interesting part)
_a map with POIs (defined by the app admin)
_an end point (POI selected by the user).
Defining a starting point: we would like to try with multiple methods for defining where the user
is located:
_markers (NFC, barcode…) located in the defined places
_visual recognition (user takes a photo of an element and AI is trying to locate the user based
on the image (basic scenario: room number on doors / advanced scenario: shelf with spoons))
_Wi-Fi positioning system (the “wow effect”).
Additionally, the system can add some information like "You will be passing a shelf with Kasza
gryczana. Here is a code for 20% off for Kasza". POIs may be permanent (like rooms) or
temporary (like lighting talks / sweets / discount of the day for plastic ferns).

10. The Artifact
Artifact is an object that is a creation of the human mind, shaped by means of craft – it can be a
tool, decoration, or a functional item (frequently of a historical or artistic significance). Each
artifact is different, personal, has its own appearance - from simple to the most astonishing one.
It can be so unique that a third party may not know how to use it. It is quite easy to see it only
through its external form, treating it as art. The power of an artifact is to serve almost as a genie –
fulfill whims, help to understand the world.
Magic is simple in use – one does not need to know anything about the compexity of the inside.
Examples: ‘’Air block’’ – lights up in colours, informs about smog. ‘’A figurine of a very busy man’’
– do not disturb. It lights up when you are busy. Other – not revealed. We’re building a platform
which may be limited only by imagination.

11. Beat The Brit
We’d like to develop an application that will help manage English courses in our company.
This application will allow Ewelina to manage group enrolments, post current timetables with
the number of people enrolled in the groups, post learning materials and homeworks, e-mail
templates and useful expressions, such as British-Lab vocabulary.
This will enable to accumulate the knowledge transmitted only via e-mail in a form accessible to
everyone and at any time. Additionally, users will be able to use the forum as well as a section of
useful links and … the Witch-bot.
All of this will be dressed up in a user-friendly graphic form. Materials and templates will be
divided into appropriate and easy to find sections, while learning materials will be assigned to
folders of particular groups;British-Lab phrases will be displayed in a separate webpart.
Ultimately, the application can be extended to other useful functionalities. Technologies:
Sharepoint, React, PowerApps (optional).

12. What's the lemon?
This is a so-called ‘Take kids and teenagers away from
smartphones and TV’ project. It is a compilation of exit rooms,
Indiana Jones (and no, this is not just about rolling stones)
and a scavenger hunt. A bunch of kids is running around a
forest with a map and finds out that the last clue is hidden in
a trunk which can be opened only by placing the right
talismans in the specially designated places.
Arthur C. Clarke once said:
‘Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable
from magic’. We want to create an opensource framework
to build such games. Imagine: many various elements are put
together into a completely new game.
Where’s the magic? IoT devices are configured by simple yet
powerful web panel. This fun-platform will be applied to play
different scenarios, e.g. at a company party or a conference
like Wroc#.
