The summer solstice is behind us - that means the days will be becoming shorter.But RCOS students are going in full steam. The students's talks are on the youtube channel. http://www.youtube.com/rcosrpi1 (Thanks to Riley Hamilton.)We have decided to watch one TED video a week after our regular talks to get further inspiration.
This week we had talks by
1) Dina Jacobsen on IdeaBank http://rcos.rpi.edu/projects/ideabank/
2) Sean Austin on RCOSUIR http://rcos.rpi.edu/projects/user-interface-research-app/
3) Peter Wakefield and Anthony Onwuasoanya on AutoScheduler

Dina is progressing well according to her schedule. She has built up a data model and demo of her basic system (IdeaBank) is almost there. She is also making her extensible to store pictures, audio of the ideas. She is currently exploring the visualization of ideas (like what time ideas originated etc). Her talk slides may be found here.
