The hospital OffDuty Wizard is a great help in completing the nurse off-duty or working roster for a hospital ward/clinic. The design has focused on the user interface, and provides nursing staff with a familiar off duty form combined with intuitive controls. An important design goal was to achieve a simplicity of function to remove the need for any specific ICT training. A Staff File contains all the ward/clinic, staff and shift requirements. The Off Duty application comes with a powerful statistics function, which can work at the ward or hospital or group level for the analysis of staffing and associated costs.

Warehouse Wizard is a stock control system designed specifically for clothes retail and manufacturing. It provides for stock control, order processing, picklists, invoicing and sales analysis. The unusual element to the Warehouse Wizard is the handling of size and colour in a very efficient process and specialised user interface . A house profile for a given stock line can be used to generate customer picklists, this is linked to the original stock purchase or factory profile of colours and sizes.

We have a number of inexpensive Controller Area Network (CAN) adaptor cards and a CAN development software toolset.

This Beep Test PC (usually laptop) software gives an implementation of the Leger (1982) fitness test now under many names - Shuttle Test, Beep Test, Yo-Yo Test, Bleep Test. Basically you run between two lines, twenty meters apart keeping pace with the 'beep' interval. The fitness test is in stages, starting at a warmup pace of 8km/h at stage 1. Every minute the stage is incremented and speed is increased. This shuttle test or beep test will test the maximum aerobic endurance of a player. Let us know if you would like any modifications, ie. new test, extra features or maybe your team colours on the graphics, for a free ticket! We have focused on the timing accuracy, in test on our slowest machine (400MHz Pentium II) we achieved 2 hundredths of a second accuracy on the beep timing - check your test.txt after running the beep test. Please let us know if you or any of your friends score above 15 !

Version 2.5 (Jan 2007) has a lap counter and total distance covered in metres to make it easier to read/track your beeptest score.

StreetSure is an aid to highways/road maintenance and planning, providing efficient roadside data capture in the form of a maintenance report with integral GPS positioning. The system essentially allows the user to quickly classify road/pavement surface damage, categorise the maintenance requirement with a combined safety checklist, accurately locate and rapidly record into a simple electronic database at the roadside. The system comprises of a field unit, PocketPC (HP iPAQ 2210 or equivalent) with the StreetSure application software, local database and Global Positioning System (GPS) as one compact, robust inexpensive handheld unit. These units will interface/ synchronise with the main computer servers, downloading local database entries into the parent database. The StreetSure system has been designed for flexibility, we believe the system can be adapted for many council uses where classification or action needs to be assessed and recorded together with an accurate location for the work groups. The StreetSure field unit can also be used to help navigate - using a standard GPS mapping system, to the maintenance locations recorded in the database.
