Fiiiit helps track, analyze, and share people's activities while taking the stairs. It helps people gain health by doing exercise more, and reduce carbon footprint by taking elevators less.You swipe a RFID card on devices at both floor A and B, then you'll get instant exercise feedback, such as calorie consumption, exercise duration, or whether you have moved too fast. You can set exercise goals and achieve it, or compete virtually with your families, friends, colleagues inside the same building.Your exercise data will be sent to our server, so you can review your workout records, manage your future exercises, or share your achievements with others.Fiiiit is now a full functional prototype that has already been deployed inside the library of Beijing Sport University. And we are doing our best to make the final product much more smaller, and much more user friendly.

Atopic eczema is a very itchy, chronic, non-contagious, inflammatory skin condition that affects approximately 10-20 percent of the world’s population. Due to changes in our modern daily lifestyle, it has become 2-3 times more prevalent today, compared to 40 years ago. There is no single cause of eczema: it can be inherited, caused by environmental factors, or a combination of both. An incremental lifestyle change is believed to improve one’s condition, but correlating behavioral changes with itchiness severity is difficult to measure, highly subjective, and often overlooked.

Chat messages, emails, websites, books… digitally written text is ever present in our daily life. But those neatly arranged letters hide secrets. Who wrote them and how? Did they hesitate? Was it a furious typing spree fuelled by a wave of emotions? Or did they carefully choose every word, deleting and retyping them over and over?

For centuries people around the Swedish lake Storsjön have talked about a mysterious lake monster called Storsjöodjuret. Since the 19th century hundreds of observations have been documented and there are even more unofficial testimonies. For a few years the monster was even on the Swedish list of protected species. There have been many attempts to catch or convincingly photograph the animal, but none of them have succeeded.

As more and more people were streaming content on their mobile devices HBO approached HUGE to plan and bring to market a suite of applications that would allow users access to the complete library of acclaimed HBO content through an interface that delivered the feel of the HBO experience. HBO had previously developed HBO GO as an on demand service that existed solely on HBOGO.com. HUGE's development of the HBO GO app aimed to harness the vibrant content of HBO to deliver a truly unique and seamless digital experience on the iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch and Android.HBO GO was developed to provide an ideal place for current HBO subscribers to not only view, but become fully immersed in, HBO's selection of programming. By expanding their platform, HBO Go would give more value to HBO subscribers while also creating a compelling product that could attract new subscribers.

S7 Airlines flies to over 900 destinations in partnership with oneworld. To inspire Russians to go out there and explore the wonders of our world, we launched a unique interactive project. We allowed people to fly to the place of their dreams using only the power of their imagination and turned their brains into game controllers using neurotechnology. If participants were able to steer a mind-controlled virtual plane to their dream destination, then S7 Airlines would actually fly them there.

Middle school education can be very challenging for students. They get introduced to a lot of new mathematical and scientific concepts that are often abstract in nature and difficult to understand. The current education system is designed as a one size fits all solution, with a set way to teach and learn these concepts. This approach contrasts with facilitation and letting learning happen organically. What if these concepts could be made more fun and tangible? Would this help the students gain more confidence in learning these concepts, let them explore the subject matter more deeply, and help them develop their own reasoning behind them? The “Smart Lamp” addresses this opportunity space by creating a mixed-reality environment that brings together the advantages of both physical and virtual environments.

When we discuss problems in policing, we rarely indict the records management software. There’s a common misconception that police are “high tech” when, in reality, 20% of departments are still using paper reports to file incidents. The rest are using outdated software that makes it impossible to share crime information across city lines. Problematic software has even resulted in criminals walking free based on technicalities like arrests not being processed in time. This was a decades old problem that no one else bothered to fix despite hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars being spent each year on it. With Cobalt Records Management System, the team at Mark43 redesigned police reporting workflows from the ground up, and built a user experience that officers could finally embrace instead of complain about.
