Examples of our work

Location based, real-time weather and more

We built a BlackBerry and Android application for a real estate company with properties across the world. The goal of this app was to provide customers with weather forecast, Wikipedia, and school district information for their current location (which updates automatically as they move around). This experience brings together 4 layers of data into 1, including:

1. GIS data – geocoding and reverse geocoding were used to translate lat/lon into real street addresses.
2. Real-time weather and forecast data – used to provide current and future weather info.
3. Wikipedia data – used to provide Wikipedia results for a user’s current lat/lon.
4. School district data – used to find which school district is closest to a user’s current lat/lon.

Location based, real-time tide & snow report

We built an iPhone and Web application for a company that runs a chain of beach and mountain resorts in the US. The goal of this app was to provide members with tide forecasts, marine weather, and snow forecasts for their current location (which updates automatically as the user moves around). This experience brings together 3 layers of data into 1, including:

1. GIS data – geocoding and reverse geocoding were used to translate lat/lon & IP addresses into real street addresses.
2. Marine weather data and tide data – used to provide tide info. for specific beaches in the US.
3. Snow reports and mountain weather forecast – used to provide snow reports for specific mountains in the US.

Location based, real-time Health IT

We built a multiplatform application for a hospital to manage patient and billing information from their mobile devices and desktop computers. The goal of this app was to allow physicians to manage patient handoffs, episode of care billing, create QI checklists, and collaborate and communicate securely with all members of their group (regardless of where they are and what computer or mobile device each physician has). It syncs automatically with the cloud so all physicians have up to the minute info. and can access their data from any device, anytime. It works on all mobile platforms, and web browsers.

Location based, real-time bike, car, and walking trips

We built an Android and BlackBerry application for a company that sells carbon credits. The goal of this app was to provide its users a way to record their bike, car, and walking trips to measure the amount of carbon they emit and reduce each day. It records the time, distance, and carbon emitted for recoded trips as the user moves around. This app brought together 3 of data into 1 app, including:

1. GIS data – geocoding and reverse geocoding were used to translate lat/lon translated into real street addresses.
2. Recorded trip data – used to measure carbon reduced vs. emitted.
3. Carbon credit data – used to determine what incentives users can get from the government for the carbon they offset.

Zen Application Framework

All our applications are built using our Zen Application Framework, which helps you avoid the common pitfalls around mobile development. Zen drastically reduces development time & cost for mobile, web, and desktop experiences. Zen uses the following performance enhancement techniques to deliver high efficiency, high performance, and high availability apps: Compression, Multithreading, Encryption, Pre-fetching, Caching. All experiences built using Zen:

1. Have a strong focus on style, graphic design, and a task oriented “flow”.
2. Preserve the battery life of your device (will not drain the battery).
3. Use very little network & very little CPU on your device.
4. Are fast, responsive, and can run in the background.
5. Have seamless service versioning and OTA updates.

We have 4 versions of Zen that we can use to build your apps: Zen for Android, Zen for BlackBerry, Zen for iPhone, and Zen Multiplatform.
