Dentify - A Comprehensive Dental Clinic Management System
(2026) Ala’a Abdelrahim; Abdullah Shabib
Modern dental practices face significant operational challenges including inefficient ap- pointment management, fragmented patient records, and limited patient engagement. This project addresses these challenges through the design, development, and implementation of Dentify—a comprehensive, cloud-based dental clinic management system integrating web and mobile applications to streamline dental practice operations and enhance patient care delivery. The system was developed using a three-tier architecture with Node.js and Express for RESTful API implementation, PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM for data management, and Fire- base Firestore for real-time communications. The frontend comprises responsive web appli- cations built with React.js for patients, dentists, clinic administrators, secretaries, radiology centers and system administrators, complemented by cross-platform mobile applications devel- oped using React Native for patients, dentists and secretaries. A key innovation is the integration of Google Gemini 2.5 Flash AI to power an intelligent chatbot providing patient support and appointment booking through natural language interaction. Security measures include HTTPS encryption, bcrypt password hashing, JWT authentication, and role-based access control sup- porting six distinct user types. The implemented system successfully delivers nine core modules: authentication and user management, intelligent appointment scheduling with real-time availability, comprehensive treatment planning with visual dental charting, flexible payment processing, radiology inte- gration, AI-powered chatbot assistance, clinic management, administrative oversight, and real- time notifications. The system demonstrates significant advantages over traditional solutions through modern user interfaces, AI-enhanced patient engagement, integrated clinical and ad- ministrative workflows, real-time data synchronization, and cost-effective deployment using open-source technologies. The project validates that contemporary web technologies, cloud platforms, and artificial intelligence can effectively address complex healthcare management requirements while improving user experience and reducing costs compared to legacy commer- cial solutions

LiveSpot: A Real-Time Location-Based Social Networking Application
(2026) Mohammad Hamdan; Momen Anani
This project developed LiveSpot, a real-time location-based news tracking and verification platform designed to combat misinformation through location-verified community reporting and news aggregation. The platform addresses the growing problem of fake news and frag- mented information sources by creating a unified application where users can report real-time events, verify ongoing incidents, and access curated news from multiple external sources within their local communities. The application was implemented using Flutter framework for cross-platform compatibil- ity across Android, iOS, and web platforms, integrated with Firebase for real-time messaging and Django REST API for backend services. Key implemented features include GPS-based location verification for posts, community-driven honesty scoring system, intelligent threading that automatically groups related events, crowd-sourced event status verification through "still happening" votes, comprehensive news aggregation with external API integration, interactive mapping using OpenStreetMap, and AI-powered messaging suggestions using Google Gem- ini API. The system employs location-based authentication to ensure post authenticity and implements automatic content threading to enable collaborative event tracking. The development resulted in a fully functional news tracking and verification platform ca- pable of real-time event reporting with location verification, successful integration of multiple external news sources, implementation of community-based credibility systems, and deploy- ment across multiple platforms using a single codebase. The platform successfully demon- strates cross-platform functionality, real-time data synchronization, and effective integration of location services with news tracking features. Testing confirmed reliable performance across different devices and operating systems, with successful implementation of all core verification and aggregation features.

CubeBot: FPGA-Based Rubik’s Cube Solver
(2026) Momen Anani; Mohammad Hamdan
Abstract This project presents the design and implementation of an automated Rubik’s Cube solving robot using a heterogeneous embedded system architecture that combines FPGA hardware acceleration, ARM processor coordination, and ESP32-based motor control. Unlike traditional microcontroller-only or PC-based approaches, the system strategically distributes tasks across specialized computing platforms to achieve deterministic real-time performance, modular de- sign, and reliable operation. The system architecture integrates three cooperating units: a DE1-SoC FPGA fabric im- plementing hardware-accelerated color extraction and VGA display, an ARM Cortex-A9 Hard Processor System (HPS) managing high-level coordination and solution computation, and an ESP32 module handling motor control and wireless dashboard connectivity. The FPGA processes cube face images with deterministic 14.8ms timing using threshold-based color clas- sification, while the HPS executes the Kociemba two-phase solving algorithm and validates cube state consistency. The ESP32 coordinates stepper and servo motors to physically ma- nipulate the cube with sensor-based alignment feedback. Communication between subsystems uses a custom UART packet protocol with state machine-based error recovery, achieving 100% reliability across all testing. The system provides dual monitoring interfaces through FPGA-based VGA hardware display and ESP32-hosted wireless web dashboard, enabling comprehensive system visibility and user control. Experimental results demonstrate 98.7% color detection accuracy, 93.3% solve success rate, and mean solve time of 46.1 seconds. The modular architecture achieved efficient FPGA resource utilization (27% ALMs, 2% block memory, 20% DSP blocks) while maintaining flexibility for future enhancements. Testing across 30 complete solve cycles validated the ef- fectiveness of the heterogeneous design approach for robotics applications requiring integrated perception, computation, and actuation. This work demonstrates how hardware-software co-design principles can address the limita- tions of monolithic embedded systems, providing a practical architecture for FPGA-accelerated robotics that balances real-time performance with implementation simplicity and debugging accessibility

GloviX
(2026) Masa Anani; Maha Samara
Maintaining proper hand hygiene and frequent glove replacement is essential in med- ical and hygiene-sensitive environments to reduce the risk of infection and cross- contamination. However, the traditional process of hand sanitization and glove wearing can be time-consuming, inconvenient, and often requires direct human assistance, es- pecially in high-pressure environments such as hospitals and laboratories. This project presents GloviX, an automated, contactless system designed to perform hand sanitization, drying, and medical glove wearing in a single integrated workflow. The system consists of two enclosed units: a sanitization unit and a glove dispensing unit. GloviX utilizes an Arduino-based control system, ultrasonic sensors for hand detection, motors and actuators for mechanical movement, and airflow mechanisms for glove preparation and inflation. The developed prototype successfully demonstrates the feasibility of automating the glove-wearing process while reducing human contact and encouraging faster glove replacement. Although no quantitative measurements or clinical validation were con- ducted, practical testing confirmed that the system performs its intended functions effectively. GloviX highlights the potential of combining embedded systems, mechan- ical design, and automation to improve hygiene practices in medical, industrial, and laboratory environments.

Food Guard
(2025) Dima Shanti; Masa Anani
The world today faces a growing problem of food waste, which negatively impacts food security, the environment, and the economy. This project presents a practical digital initiative aimed at reducing household food waste through the development of an intelligent application called Food Guard. The application enables users to track food products and their expiry dates, receive smart notifications when items are about to expire, and analyze consumption behavior over time—helping them make more conscious decisions about food usage and storage. The system is built using modern technologies, including Flutter for mobile application development, Django with a PostgreSQL database for a secure and robust backend, and Firebase for enabling real-time notifications. Additionally, artificial intelligence is integrated to provide smart storage tips and suggest recipes based on available in- gredients. The application also offers a comprehensive system for managing food donations, whether surplus items or ready-made meals. Food Guard is expected to make a tangible impact on raising food awareness and reducing waste, based on the comprehensive technical solutions it provides and the user-friendly experience it offers. The platform also holds promising potential for fu- ture expansion to support communities and connect them through smart cooperation networks.
