HACKFEST

Let us introduce you Jacques. 
(with Nicolas IBARLUCIA)

Our main topic was a smart canne, to assist blind people in their daily itineraries throughout the city.
We realized that a group of students from Nancy came up with that idea in 2014.
We then decided to add some abilities (but the initial canne was already a marvelous object !) : Jacques will be able to indicate the location and time, steps and obstacles to destination. It is paired with a headset to give the details to the person using it. Jacques is also able to give a precise daily forecast to avoid any late surprise.
In addition, it is able to send messages through the headset micro and receive/make phonecalls.
It indicates its user the next red lights, and when is the right moment to cross it.
The next tool is still a prototype : the user will have a ring on one of his finger, and in any supermarket, whatever product he/she takes in his/her hand will be detected by the ring and detailed through the headset.


We had a nice promotional video made through Animoto but despite having changed the internet connection, the video is still blocked on producing. We are only able to duplicate to continue editing, and once there, it is impossible to produce the preview/final video.
Here are some screenshots to show the small issue we had, we will do our best to find a solution soon !

A little discussion with Alino, our marvelous chatbot

ALINO THE CHATBOT  Today Nicolas and I gave life to Alino , the chatbot of La Canaille restaurant. Thanks to his help, customers will be given basic information and may call us if they need any other information.  It allows us to save some time to dedicate to our other customers.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------- It has very interesting to create Alino and define its possible answers. It pushes us to guess and predict our guests' expectations. By talking with Alino instead of one of our employee, our team has more time to dedicate to our face-to-face customer.  I had never set up a chatbot and it has been very helpful to learn that.  https://www.facebook.com/La-Canaille-982938515188142/?modal=admin_todo_tour
