Photo Emailer

photo_emailer_smallBusiness Problem: Our client was running a fundraiser for a political candidate.  In order to encourage attendees to supply their email addresses for a mailing list, the organizers offered to take each attendee's picture with the candidate and email it to them.  The client would be working with a laptop, a camera, and no Internet access.  They needed to be able to capture the name, email address, zip code and photo of each attendee.  Since attendance was expected to be quite large, writing everything on a sheet of paper or keeping a list in a spreadsheet wasn't a viable option.  They also needed to integrate with Outlook in order to send the messages in a batch, after the event was over and the laptop could be connected to the Internet again.

Solution: We created a stand-alone application that captured the required information, including the name of the photo.  The camera was connected to the laptop while photos were taken, so the photos were stored on the laptop's hard drive.  Since photos from digital cameras are usually numbered sequentially, the program even went so far as to guess the name of the photo so that the user didn't have to type it in.  Each record was saved for later use and could be edited by the person manning the laptop.

XpressVu Software

TunerObserver screenshotOur client, Cerona Networks Corporation, created a new hardware product, the Cerona XpressVu™ DualTuner PCI Express DVB-S/S2 Card. This is an add-on card for a PC or server that allows one to send information over digital video signals and treat the information as if it were coming over the Internet. Working with their engineering team, we developed several pieces of software to help run the card when installed in servers running Microsoft Windows Server.

The first piece that we developed was a graphic user interface (GUI) used by administrators to monitor the state of the card and configure it (see the screenshot on the right). It is a .NET application written in C# using Visual Studio 2008.  This software had several tabs:

  • Status: displayed the status of the card and allowed one to select from several stock configurations or manually enter configuration information.
  • Config: provides settings that affect the overall behavior of the software, such as the threshold for signal quality below which an error is reported.
  • Errors: shows a list of errors as they occur in real time
  • About: displays information about the software and Cerona Networks Corporation

BillQuick Report Customization

Business Problem: Our client was using BillQuick to manage their time and billing for their service business.  While BillQuick provides many useful forms and reports out of the box, they didn't match our client's needs.  The client wanted the forms seen by clients, such as invoices, to reflect their established branding.  They also needed to modify the functionality of some of the internal and external reports and forms to suit their business processes.

Datachunker

DataChunder screen shotBusiness Problem: The client, a high-end photolab catering to professional photographers, needed to deliver a large quantity of high resolution photographs to clients on CD or DVD regularly.  In most cases, there were enough photographs that multiple disks were required.  They had been paying interns to manually count up the number that would fit on a single disk, then wait while the CD or DVD was burned and repeat the process.  This was both slow and expensive.

Solution: We created Datachunker, a program that automates this process.  The user can tell it where to find the photographs and give it a folder in which to
