Computer Science Showcase 2018

Computer Science Showcase 2018 on April 10th in the MacEwan Ballroom was a great success.  If you attended the showcase, then you saw many exciting projects created by undergraduate and graduate Computer Science and Computational Media Design students.

Some of the projects included:

  • Robot Improv Puppet Theatre:  A robot arm that uses crowd-sourced audience input to perform an improv scene with a human performer.
  • Dessert Desperado:  A racing game where you try to escape to the Mexican border while evading police cars and obstacles.
  • Haptic Rendering of Fluids:  Rendering haptic feedback for real-time fluid simulations with Nvidia FleX.
  • DUO Collegare:  DUO Collegare provides a platform to connect organizations and volunteers to inspire action, rather than just dialogue. We bring together people from diverse backgrounds to work towards a common goal: social good.
  • Haptic Team Racing:  A two-player, cooperative race-against-the-clock game controlled with two Novint Falcon haptic devices. Work together to avoid obstacles and reach the finish line before time is up!
