Just Dabao

https://justdabao.com/
A Flutter-based app that allows users to order food at discounted rates from restaurants. It also enables merchants to save money by reducing food waste. The app uses location-based filtering to track orders and give users the best option available.

Glamo

This app is like Uber for beauty stylists, an on-demand app where users can book stylists and also it provides real-time tracking and online payment systems, allowing the entire process to take place within seconds and giving customers the flexibility to book a stylist from the comfort of their homes.

Social App for Travellers

A React/Flutter-based app for social networking between users to communicate and share details about their travel stories, and it had a map-based interactive messaging system for the users to communicate with each other and view their travel stories over a globe-based interface using MapBox, as well as it allowed users to check all the available stories for a particular area on the MapBox Globe using heatmaps.

Orijin Plus

https://www.orijin.plus/
The app is an eCommerce for wholesalers with a system that involves the usage of Mapbox and that enables users to track and verify the authenticity of their products and the users can also see the whole journey of the product saved on the blockchain, learn where their food products come from, how they are made, and the principles that drive the companies behind them.

Geolocation-based Advertisement/Offers

It's an Android/Flutter-based app that was developed to track the user's geolocation and would allow the system to track the geofences and push over offers depending on their nearest trade partner.

This helped the client send over targeted ads/offers to users with greater outcomes.

if you are near a coffee shop that has a partnership with the client, they will detect your location and will send over offers that are available in that coffee shop.

Farm Vehicle Tracking System

It's an Android/Flutter-based app that was created to detect a phone's location in a periodic manner and would send it over to the cloud using MQTT with high throughput and availability,

It was made to be fail-safe. Even if the internet is gone or the phone is off, it will resume without issues.

A dashboard was made where these data would be displayed as if it was a real-time video, using the data points coming in the geocoordinates paths that were plotted on the screen to get a real-time experience.

Mobile Wallet for Mobile/Web

https://apps.apple.com/sg/app/carte-bonjour/id742161961
A Flutter-based app that acts as a mobile wallet that can be used to pay parking fees.

FEATURES
• It shows your location and nearby parking spots available.
• Allows you to save your cards and use them when needed.
• Allows you to use the same points at partner outlets and pay for meals, etc.
• It works for both mobile and web and adjusts its UI accordingly

Walk With Me

It's a Flutter and Firebase-based social media app that allows users to find events near them and also allows them to create new events and invite others to them.

FEATURES
• It can send SOS messages if there is any emergency, and all those who are nearby get notified right away.
• It has event creation and tracking so that users feel safe.
• It's integrated with local security groups that get notified in case of an emergency.

Remote Solar Monitoring System

The system was to enable the 30-year-old solar inverter, which was communicating with a sitting computer with standalone software running on it using very old tech. The client wanted to put it on the cloud but had no documentation about it as it was quite old.

I used Raspberry Pi, which would connect to those devices using rs42 to a Modbus connector, and then I tracked the incoming packets using Wireshark and then decoded what was sent to the old computer.

Using Node.js and Python code on Raspberry Pi, I was able to communicate with the device, and I used MQTT and Restful APIs to send the data to the server.

Grafana was used to convert the real-time data into dashboards and allowed a visual representation of the data. Telegraf was also used to convert raw data into the desired format.

Smart Water Heater System

The system was built around a water heater which has no digital output except the LED lights showing the status of the motor, water level, and temperature.
So, I built a custom circuit that would convert those LED (AC) signals and converted it into digital ones using AC/DC converters. Then, using that value, I connected those signals to Raspberry Pi. The signals would then send data to the server using MQTT using a Wifi dongle. This enabled the client to detect if there was any anomaly in the heater at any time.

Nordic App for Prehistoric Site

A Flutter-based app that displays all the artifacts found on a prehistoric site from the Nordic region, and the app uses Offline Maps using Mapbox along with panoramic views to show 3D Images using Google panoramic API to give an immersive experience to the users.

• Ability to view maps offline using MapBox so that users could navigate even in remotest areas without internet
• View Artifacts/Site info by tapping over Map using Mapbox API to navigate the user to that place.
