Makeweekend

Senior staff of a company are by definition more experienced and wise. Junior staff, on the other hand, are young and inexperienced. This group is building a website to help the two groups connect and understand each other better.

We normally visit our host universities beforehand at a Spark session to get the ball rolling on our Makeweekends – but for Klang Valley, we’re going to change it up a bit.

We love seeing the cool things that the Tumblr community comes up with, and would like to bring the Klang Valley university students and the KL Tumblr community together in an epic meetup of ideas and creativity — to learn from each other and to see how we can design cool solutions to every day problems.

RSVP for our Tumblr meetup and meet the creative KL Tumblr community!

The poster above should give you enough information to save the dates for that particular night. We’re working hard to get KL’s most creative people who are coincidentally on Tumblr together so we can meet them and pick their brains and bounce ideas off of each other.

If you’re interested in attending and bringing more cool creative people with you, you can RSVP by:

Going to the Ideas@Tumblr KL meetup page here

Drop a comment that you’ll be attending here

OR email make@weekend.my with the subject: RSVP for Tumblr Meetup

The venue is subject to change, so watch this space for any changes! We’ll also be updating our Facebook page and our Twitter, so make sure you follow us and keep yourself updated. We don’t want you miss out on all the cool stuff we’re planning for you!

This group develop a game application for education purposes!

Classes are always boring on its own. What if we could incorporate gaming into the online education system? This group came up with a RPG game that will incorporate the class subject into part of the game!

Walked into a hypermarket and had a hard time finding out where your favorite cereal is at? This group will develop an application that will connect your grocery list to the map of the hypermarket. Now you can find the shortest route to your items!

Tired of being in the bus between hot sweaty body, during peak hours? This group creates an application that would allow subscribers to check in and check out of the bus so that others may know of the activities happening in between the routes.

Having inadequate power supply problem? This team has come up with a self sustaining crystal cell that would supply a certain amount of current to electronic devices at all times!

Tired of clogged drain? This group has a great idea of making a filter system for the sink drain whereby all the icky stuff stays in a filter plate!

Power couple of the weekend!

A device that keeps the car cool when parked under the sun. In a hot country like Malaysia, when parking under the sun the car interior can get hot, especially the seats and steering wheel and dashboards, etc. So this device will detect when the car interior is heating up and balances it by sending cool air.

One man team!

It is a human action recognition algorithm, which can search through videos and find a specific human action that you want. The problem is that videos are usually searched using keywords tagged to it, and the description is sometimes wrong. This algorithm will instead search based on content instead of the tags.

Not one, but two projects for this guy!

It consists of one controller and receiver. You can install it on any electrical appliance eg. lights, tv, radio, and use the controller to turn off the device. You can also assign multiple receivers to one controller, so you only need one controller. It’s useful for old people, the disabled, and also lazy people.

Power team!

A writing surface that can remove ink written on it using just saliva. Sometimes we don’t have an eraser, so we just take a dab of saliva with our finger and rub the area to be erased.
