Blind Fighter – A Video Game For The Visually Impaired, Avery Wayne Harrah Apr 2023

Blind Fighter – A Video Game For The Visually Impaired, Avery Wayne Harrah

ATU Research Symposium

Blind Fighter is a video game made to be playable by anyone, regardless of any visual impairments the player may have. The game relies on auditory queues to allow players to understand what is happening in the game without ever having to see the screen. The project’s goal is to serve as a proof of concept that video games can be made inclusive with a few additions during development, without sacrificing overall quality. To do this, the game features full graphics in addition to testing many strategies for visually impaired players, including direction-based audio, unique sound effects for each game …

Crime Prediction Using Machine Learning: The Case Of The City Of Little Rock, Zurab Sabakhtarishvili, Sijan Panday, Clayton Jensen

ATU Research Symposium

Crime is a severe problem in the city of Little Rock, Arkansas. In this study, we aim to develop a machine-learning model to predict criminal activities in the city and provide insights into crime patterns. We will analyze publicly available crime datasets from Little Rock Police Department from January 2017 to March 2023 to identify trends and patterns in crime occurrence. We used data cleaning and exploratory data analysis techniques, such as figured-based visualizations, to prepare the data for machine learning. We will employ the Neural Prophet, a time-series machine learning model, to predict daily crime counts. The model will …

Reworking Of The Arkansas Tech Human Resources Employee Records Software, Dalton J. George, Brayan Bonilla-Chavez, John Modica, Angelina Das

ATU Research Symposium

Evisions Argos is a real-time reporting tool used by Arkansas Tech in many record-keeping departments. Reworking HR's software using this tool, security and database access concerns were negated, as Argos is already connected to the University's backend. Using Argos, we have made ATU HR's employee records software more user friendly and built a system that can be pushed to production for use by the university. As a secondary portion to this final project, we developed a proof-of-concept web application using the MEAN (Mongo, Express, Angular, Node) stack. This gave us the opportunity to produce a full-stack application from scratch as …

Arkavalley Liquor: Simplifying Restaurant Alcohol Orders, Isaiah A. Kitts, Dayton Drilling, Bradlee Treece, Cameron Lumpkin Apr 2023

Arkavalley Liquor: Simplifying Restaurant Alcohol Orders, Isaiah A. Kitts, Dayton Drilling, Bradlee Treece, Cameron Lumpkin

ATU Research Symposium

The ArkaValley Liquor system is a web-based ordering platform designed to simplify the process of ordering alcohol for local restaurants. Currently, restaurants place orders by emailing the store, which makes it difficult to maintain a paper trail and track order details. With the ArkaValley Liquor system, the ordering process is automated, and all order details are saved in one central location. Each restaurant will have a login, ensuring only authorized individuals can place orders. The system will also provide a record of each restaurant's most recent order, making it easy to reorder if necessary. By using the ArkaValley Liquor system, …
