  Completed Idea

Inspiration

The reason why the idea came to me, was because of how my little sister entered my life. She is two now by the way, and I wasn't really sure about being able to come up with ideas involving weather. However, when we were going over a few different ideas, I suddenly began thinking about how amazing my mom is and how she's had so much experience with having me, my twin sister, and my brother that now she knows what to put us in in different types of weather. She had to start somewhere. And that's where I started last night, digging through information online. It was all over the place and there was not really a specific chart for what to put your child in during different temperatures.

So, we decided to go with this project. This program shows you the temperature outside, a description of what your child can wear in this condition, and gives you an option to enter your own temperature. Included on this page is how the program looks in unity(on a website) but it also includes what we would want the demo to look like on a mobile app(it looks similar to how it looks in unity), and what our more detailed plans were for the mobile app if we got that far or choose to continue this idea outside of UNOHackathon.

We built this program with unity and visual basic, using C# as the programming basic. We also used an onlineweather service that provided the weather data. Each program works together to provide an interface that is usable for the user to collect the data that is needed.

One of the main challenges that we ran into was getting the weather server to connect to our program. We had to read the data from the local host that was connecting to the weather API.

We're proud of the fact that we actually finished the project since this is both of our first hackathon events. Especially for me, since I'm a freshman with really only java experience working on unity and c#, but I had a great teammate that helped us through the problems and we came out victorious because of our teamwork and the help of the mentors that were so kind as to help us.

We learned how to connect to the API as well as how we should attack our next program and/or hackathon.

The next thing that we want to do with this program is make it to where the program can actually register what the user puts in as the data for the temperature. It would be fun to continue this project after the Hackathon is over.
