Protector of the seas (PoS)

Piracy is a major threat to global trade, and it is crucial to have effective measures in place to detect pirate ships. Satellite images can play a decisive role in this context. With the ability to cover large areas and provide real-time updates, satellite images can provide authorities with the information they need to identify and track pirate ships, even in remote areas. By combining satellite images with other technologies, such as AIS data, a comprehensive system can be established to monitor the world’s oceans and keep them safe from pirate ships.

By using existing data sets, we can train models to recognize ships from satellite images [1]. By comparing the number of ships found on AIS data to the number discovered on satellite images, we can find out how many non-commercial ships are in an area. We then make the assumption that if non-commercial ships are close to commercial ships in an area where the threat is high, potentially dangerous situations may arise.

AIS stands for Automatic Identification System. It’s a technology used on ships and boats to broadcast their location, course, and speed to other ships and shore-side authorities. It helps prevent collisions and makes it easier for ships to navigate in busy shipping lanes.

This model must then be linked to a portal where authorities can receive early warning that they should be paying extra close attention in a certain area.

The distance to the nearest coast guard or military vessel from AIS data can also influence the level of threat.

By combining our custom ML solution with open AI data, we can predict where pirates are located. This allows us to warn shipping companies so they can prepare their ships by taking a different route or fighting against the pirates.

If we have time, we will expand the functionality of the solution by offering alternative pirate-free routes for an additional fee

Since the beginning of the 17th century, pirates have been terrorizing the seas, pillaging their way around the world. Ships outlive the crew, and captains are forged through raids and adventures on the high seas.

Arrr matey! Ye heard it right, ye scallywags. The days of free-spirited pirating are over! No longer can ye just set sail and hope for the best, searching for a crew as ye go. Nay, now ye need a proper harbor master.

Why, ye may ask? Well, it turns out that finding a crew for a raid these days is harder than finding a needle in a haystack. Or a parrot in a pet shop. Or a pirate with a full set of teeth. Ye get the idea.

So, the pirate ships have come together and decided to appoint a harbor master. This lucky (or unlucky, depending on how ye look at it) soul will be in charge of finding the best of the best, the crème de la crème of pirate crew members. And let’s be honest, with the current job market, it’s not like there’s a shortage of unemployed sailors.

The harbor master will be the one responsible for vetting applicants, making sure they have all their limbs, and that they can swab the deck without falling overboard. A tough job, but someone’s gotta do it.

So, if ye be a pirate in need of a crew, or if ye know a pirate in need of a crew, head on down to the harbor. The harbor master will be waiting, with a bottle of rum in one hand and a list of requirements in the other.

The idea

Every ship has a captain

Every captain has first-hand information about a secret treasure hidden somewhere. The captain decides to schedule a raid/voyage for his ship with a great treasure awaiting💎

To find a crew, the captain has to speak to the local harbor master.

The harbor master begins the process of locating available crew to meet the criteria of the raid/voyage. As a harbor master, he has local information about the best of the best.

The crew gets selected based on skill/availability

The captain signs off on the crew, and the raid can begin!

Technology

We will be combining Dataverse, Power Pages, Teams Apps, PCF, SPFX, azure functions etc, etc to spread the technology stack. In a real-world scenario we might limit ourselves to fewer apps, but where is the fun in that?:)

Through our Pirate Satisfaction Questionnaire, one of the things that really stood out was that now when the Awesome Pirate Corp. had implemented Dynamics 365 F&O as their ERP system, the pirates found it really hard to be able to check, complete tasks and update their personal information like bank-account when they are out on the ship and only have their mobile available. In addition to this, it was really hard for them to see where they are planned to be and the Pirate Planners had a hard time to plan where the pirates should be as they did not have the total overview over where another planner had booked the pirate the next weeks.

After reviewing this, the Awesome Pirate Corp. engaged 5 half-geeky, wanted, pirates to help out with this. The 5 PowerPirates went into their house and planned how this could be solved, and came out with this plan:

  • With the F&O as the ERP system and master data source, we need to create a canvas app for all pirates to use and a model driven app for all Pirate Planners to use.
  • Data should flow between al of these and Office 365, as that is a lot more accessible for the pirate on their mobile when they are out on the ships.
  • The Pirate Planners will use the model driven app (that receives the master data for projects and pirates from F&O), to book the different pirates for different ships and tasks, and every planner will have a full overview over what pirate is booked for what in the future.
  • The Pirates will user the canvas app to receive information over where they are booked, have their To-do list to complete tasks assigned to them from F&O, to do updates abut them self, and some other cool and fun things to make the pirate experience even better!
  • Things done by the Pirates in the canvas app will of course update F&O with everything that is needed for the Treasurer and Pirate HR to do their job and send their reports to the P-level management.

This solution will make the every-day a lot easier for everyone in the Awesome Pirate Corp, and combined with the right PowerBI reports, this will give everyone a lot better overview iver everything going on! And, maybe a Power Virtual Agent can give the pirates a lot of the answers they need, without Pirate HR to be involved? We think so 😉

Bouvet Shredders

Posted on by

I årets ACDC event skal vi i Bouvet Shredders fokusere på fiskeoppdrett i Norge. Da skal vi hente ulike data fra sensorer og sende det fra Raspberry PI opp i skyen. Data vil bli behandlet og analysert i skyen og fremstilt på brukervennlig måte til brukeren med hjelp av Power BI. Løsningen kommer til å inneholde mange ulike Azure applikasjoner. Bilde under viser litt hva vi har tenkt til å gjøre..

Blant annet ønsker vi å bruke temperatur, CO2 og motion sensor til å hente relevante data som kan beskrive tilstanden på et fiskeoppdrett. Vi ønsker også å koble til en kamera module til Raspberry PI slik at vi kan implementere Computer Vision (Azure Cognitive Services). Ved hjelp av Object Detection kan vi hente data på hvor mange fisker det i annlegget og hvordan tilstand på fiskene.

Den endelige løsningen er ikke ferdig bestemt, men vi gleder oss til å se hvordan dette prosjektet vil utvikle seg de neste 3 dagene.

TMNT på Munchmuseet

Posted on by

Business case

Ninja Turtles har fått sommerjobb på Munch museet. Der har de tatt for seg å gjøre livet lettere for besøkende og ansatte på museet. De har derfor satt i gang arbeidet med å lage to forskjellige Power Apps, en for besøkende og en for de ansatte. Appen for besøkende har to hovedfunksjoner.

  1. Muligheten til å dra på virtuell visning. I tilfelle det blir en ny nedstengning av samfunnet grunnet Covid; ønsker museet å sikre inntekt ved å kunne tilby en virtuell omvisning. Dermed kan de sikre inntekt for å leie inn Ninja Turtles neste sommer for enda flere forbedringer av drift.
  2. Gi informasjon om de ulike bildene, ved å ta bilde av et av maleriene kan man bli sendt til en chatbot som har muligheten til å fortelle deg mer om de ulike maleriene. Den chatbotten er også så smart at den kan fortelle deg hvor toalettet er.

I appen for ansatte skal appen gjøre det lettere for ansatte å holde oversikt over museet.

  1. Holde oversikt over temperaturen og fuktigheten på museet. Maleriene er skjøre objekter som trives i et bestemt temperaturintervall, derfor er det viktig for de ansatte å få vite når de må justere aircondition eller rydde vekk maleriene.
  2. Grunnet litt dårlig økonomihåndtering der de har brukt alt for mye penger på kunst, har de ansatt litt tvilsomme ansatte på museet, det er derfor viktig for de ansatte å kunne verifisere at det er de ekte maleriene som henger på veggen. Derfor er en av de viktigste featurene at en AI kan gjenkjenne om det er det ekte eller et falskt bilde som henger på museet.

App for besøkende

BILDE AV APPLIKASJONEN:

Overordnet beskrivelse:

MUNCH-Appen er for besøkende av MUNCH Museet. Her har vi tre hoved funksjonaliteter:

  1. Virtuell utstilling: Vi ønsker å gi de besøkende muligheten til å oppleve Munch museet fra stua eller ute i naturen gjennom bruk av en mobilapplikasjon. Her får de tilgang til deler av utstillingen.
  2. Chat bot: Denne kan besøkende bruke for å finne mer informasjon om kunstnere eller Munch museet.
  3. Ta bilde av kunsten og få mer informasjon: Noen ganger vil man ha mer informasjon om maleriet enn det som allerede står i informasjonsbeskrivelsen ved maleriet. Ved bruk av denne funksjonaliteten kan de besøkende ta et bilde av maleriet og få mer utdypende informasjon gjennom applikasjonen.

App for ansatte

Overordnet beskrivelse

Powerapp for vedlikehold av malerier. (antakelse om at alle sensorene gir perfekte målinger så vi trenger kun en sensor per maleri)

  • Bruker IoT Hub for å simulere en mikrokontroller som måler temperatur og fuktighet ved hvert maleri.
  • Denne devicen trigger en function app/logic app som skriver målingsdataene til dataverse hvert minutt eller så ofte.
  • I dataverse så har vi feltene: Rom ID, sensor ID (unik sensor), temperaturmåling, fuktighetsmåling og måletidspunkt.
  • Disse dataene vises i en power app eller power bi for å vise målingene av temperatur og fuktighet.
  • Forsideskjermen har en komponent som viser gjennomsnittlig temperatur og fuktighet for hele museet + egne “tiles” til hvert rom som sier om det er noen sensorer som viser hvor mange sensorer som har gått utenfor eller nærmer seg terskelverdiene for temp og fukt. Hvis ingen så viser den bare “OK”.
  • Inni hver tiles kan man klikke inn for å få mer utfyllende data om rommet og eventuelt data for hver spesifikk sensor/maleri.

Team “Pizza Time” Early Delivery

Posted on by

TMNT Live in the sewers under Manhattan, fighting crime whenever they need to protect the city. To be efficient in their crime fighting activities they need help from citizens reporting status around the city, and they need to be aware of things that happen BEFORE they actually happen. They have contacted Point Taken to find a solution for fighting crime and connecting with the citizens of New York.

After fighting crime, any hero needs food to survive. As we say in Norway “Uten mat og drikke, duger helten ikke”. No real way to translate it, but you need to eat! 🍕🍕

While living in secret it is important to know when the food is delivered without blowing their covers!

This is why we are making a 3 part solution

  1. Step one is fighting crime reactive, and a proactive. Reactive behavior is when the citizens already know what the problem is and they are reporting 911 calls all around the city. The proactive approach is when digital solutions can report suspicious activity before it actually happens.
  2. After fighting crime all of the heroes are hungry. We will create a pizza ordering app for the local pizza shop. A real New York Slice! The obvious order being a double of everything pizza😂
  3. The last part is the pizza delivery process where TMNT need to stay in hiding while receiving pizza. We will create a solution for pizza delivery reporting, and quality checking the pizza when delivered at the secret location with sensors.

Ninja turtles recently came up with an issue, after Rafael emptied the water heater after a long shower. They received an electricity bill that was way above what they used to. The electricity prices have recently increased a lot in New York City and ninja turtles need a solution before they are not able to pay their bills.

PowerShells has come up with an idea to make sure ninja turtles have the best electricity agreement, we are going to get hourly electricity prices and deals from all providers out there, and pick the best one. And this is how we are going to make it:

Portals

The customer will have access to a Power Apps Portal where they get an overview of their electricity agreement history and what agreement they are currently on at the moment.

They can see details about their current price; what are the electricity providers and suppliers paying for the electricity, what are they selling for and what are their earnings.

Customer Service

Customers can use the portal to send support requests and get access to knowledge articles. They submit support tickets as cases and can follow up their cases and communicate with customer service.

Progressive web app

The portal is enabled as a Progressive Web Apps and will be distributed as a native mobile app in Microsoft Windows Store and Google Pkat Android Store.

Customer service data registration

Our customer service employees will use a form or two (or more) to register various information about our customers and other information.
We’ll create an SPFx app (React) for this/these forms. The data from this/these form(s) will by some magic “flow” (pun intended) to Dataverse where it can be utilized by the various other parts of our system.

Power BI

Based on all the data generated from the API providing the current electricity spot price and the frequency switch of electricity providers and agreements we need some proper dashboards to display the data. We will make dashboards for the customer and the back office to track customer engagements.

Data and rates calculations

All available electricity providers and rates available for the customers (ninjas) will automatically be polled from APIs into Dataverse with power automate cloud flows. Advanced algorithms will calculate the best agreements available at an hourly rate, and automatically change the customer’s (ninja) agreement.

Overview

A canvas app will poll information from the Dataverse and embed Power BI visuals for a full overview of the customer base, prices, and providers.

Kjøleskapsmagi

Posted on by

Skillpaddens kamp for kjapp middag og mindre matsvinn.

Vi i nINjas er opptatt av enkelhet og miljø. Derfor ønsker vi å lage en kjøleskapsanordning som gir forslag til pizzaoppskrifter basert på innholdet du har i kjøleskapet. Dette fordi pizza er den eneste maten som duger for nINja-helter.

Vi vil bruke kamerateknologi, som ved hjelp av AI, gjenkjenner innholdet i kjøleskapet og foreslår hva slags pizza du kan lage. I tillegg vil vi jobbe for å bruke så mye som mulig av det som finnes i kjøleskapet for å forhindre matsvinn.

Av teknologi vil vi bruke noe fysisk som kamera, raspberry pi og en skjerm.
Backend vil i hovedsak bestå av Power Automate, Azure Cognitive services og Dataverse.

Brukeren vil legge mat i kjøleskapet, som igjen vil genere en varsling i en applikasjon om forslag til pizza. Hvis noen ingredienser mangler vil også dette synes.
Hvis man ønsker å lage en spesifikk pizza, men mangler ingredienser får man vite hva som må kjøpes inn i appen.
