Consumers having a "hair-on-fire" problem, i.e. when parcel items need to be delivered urgently or as a matter of emergency, there is no existing delivery-in-minutes (no more than 60 minutes) method. Additionally, based on the customer discovery process and survey conducted among online buyers, it was found that 67% of respondents are willing to pay up to $9 for a rapid delivery option, if it was available. Existing retailers of delivery items for pharmacies, convenience stores, local grocery stores, auto parts shops etc., do not know how to integrate drone delivery as an additional income stream for their businesses but are willing to invest into drone delivery process of their own. Companies like Amazon are limited to their distribution centers and are not able to satisfy consumers' demand living further away from the distribution center. The team of Avengineers company has designed the On-demand Drone Delivery and Transportation System (ODDTS) for local retailers in suburban areas to bridge the gap between the consumers who need items fast and the retailers who are ready to integrate drones to increase their sales and reduce opportunity costs. Drone delivery for your business is now possible. Save time and money with ODDTS by Avengineers.

Cherry is a frictionless way to donate to charity. In as easy as 3 taps, an instant donation can be made to any charity collecting in-person donations. The donor will also get a tax-deductible receipt for their donation sent right to their phone. And payment is completely walletless; all the donor needs is a phone. Charities will highly benefit from this new technology because it will transform the way they collect donations.

Frozen shoulder is a musculoskeletal condition that is characterized by insidious stiffness in the shoulder joint, leading to temporary loss of active and passive full range of motion (ROM) in the shoulder and pain that worsens at night. Treatment of frozen shoulder consists of attempting to increase patient’s ROM while mitigating pain. A combination of supervised in-office physical therapy and home exercises has shown to be most effective in increasing shoulder ROM and are highly recommended for the treatment of the condition. Currently, patients are assigned home rehabilitation exercises that they must perform in-between sessions and their shoulder ROM is measured on their return to the practitioner’s clinic. However, practitioners are unable to monitor compliance with exercises and whether they have been performed correctly. This research describes the Systems Engineering Design, Implementation, and Testing of a wearable device that provides at home rehabilitation with remote monitoring by a practitioner.

Study Mason is a web-based collaborative platform which will specifically aim to enhance the learning experience of every undergraduate student at George Mason University and can be easily extended to any other college. This will be an effective way for students to pair with other students who have the same study patterns and may share a common professor. This will allow them to collaborate, study, grasp information, and make new connections.

There is a huge barrier of entry to traditional asset management which requires the necessity for so many middlemen that leads to inefficiency, high running costs, and increased operational risks at every stage. The Koinstreet application will be built on the melon protocol, the first of its kind autonomous systems that is designed specifically for the purposes of crypto asset management. The melon protocol replaces a large proportion of the middlemen with smart contracts, thus enabling you to perform the same tasks at a fraction of the cost, and with higher transparency, security, and minimised requirement for trust. All you need to participate in the next generation financial services is a phone number, email and wallet address. Koinstreet aims to lower the barrier of entry by bringing "Technology Regulated and Operated Funds" to the mainstream through a mobile application that brings traders and investors together in a seamless gamified ecosystem.

From manufacturing plants to crawl spaces, there are many difficult to access areas that need to be inspected for various reasons. These areas usually tend to be hazardous to humans. Many of the hazards, ranging from hot pipes, dangerous moving equipment, asbestos, and living creatures, pose a significant threat to any personnel that are able to somehow inspect these tight spaces. We are working to create affordable robots with numerous sensors to inspect these areas effectively and efficiently while reducing risk to the inspector.

Students well being is based on their self-confidence in learning the knowledge and skills to perform their chosen profession. In the engineering profession, the skills and knowledge are measured by a professional exam known as the fundamental engineering exam. A score of 70% or higher is required to pass. Only 61% of the students pass the industrial and system engineering exam. Our tutoring system is a tutoring method tailored to each individual student based on their learning style. It presents the content, the duration of each mini-tutoring session, and the timing of practice quiz questions based on the individuals capabilities and rate of progress, as well as a study plan feature to help with time management.
