Austin, Alex, Brendon and Umesh have done substantial work on Mobile Shuttle tracker. Android version is released and already 25 people have downloaded it. IPhone version is waiting for approval in IPhone appstore. Their Android version has a very nice user interface. They also provide closest bus stop and estimated time of arrival of buses. They interact with members of WTG (webt - tech group at RPI) who maintain the infrastructure. Their talk
may be found here.

2) Mike presented his CAGE. Mike is planning to package his system for others to use. Mike tried to demo air math (that is math done in air and results appearing on computers). This requires good gesture recognition. Mike mentioned the limitations of the bandwidth of wristwatch. His demo did not succeed because of the bandwidth problems. Mike is exploring other means that will not confuse the gesturing software.
Mike promised to post a youtube video. Mike also talked about bioruby and his documentation efforts with bioruby project (bioruby is going to gsoc (Google Summer of Code project)
3) Colin, Adam and Amy talked about their concert project. This time they talked mainly about their user interface done in HTML 5 and javascript. Their UI is very nice, have most of the features. Their talk slides may be found here.
