Trip Commander

The app that’s helping road trippers create beautiful memories

Hit the road. Stay connected. Plan no more.

The Trip Challenge Summarized

You and your friends decide to go on the trip you had been talking about for a while now. So many things to be done! What’s the weather going to be like? Who gets to book the hotel? How do you book that city tour ahead? What are the main attractions to be seen?

Excited as you are, you decide to go for the ride. Everybody is ready. The group gets in 2 cars and you hit the road. You remember about a coffee shop on the way to the destination. But the driver of the car joining you needs gas while another friend wants to enjoy the beautiful site.

It is not easy! Organizing group events may become challenging. Different minds, different tastes but one common goal: to have a good time. Even for the most adventurous and spontaneous youngsters, not planning anything beforehand can be stressful and, eventually, take the fun out of the trip.

The Vision Behind the App

Trip Commander envisioned a solution that would make coordinating groups easier. Whether it is about what to do on a trip or when to make a stop on the road, everything can be planned through the app. This lets groups of travelers be more in sync with their plans.

When it comes to planning a trip, the company aims to be a reliable source that makes the whole experience more enjoyable. And as convenience is one of their core values, a user-friendly app was at the top of their priorities.

The Scopic Solution

Scopic developed the Trip Commander app for all Android devices. Adding geolocation to the features, Scopic, together with the company, made sure to cover all aspects of road trip planning. The user can intuitively select a “to and from” destination with the additional ability to plot waypoints in between both of those locations. The waypoints include purchasable options such as tours and attractions. The app can also give you recommendations for hotels, gas stations, and cafés.

The appealing user interface using Material Design allowed users to invite their friends on the trips and track their status along the route. Conveniently, they also receive notifications as their friends pass each waypoint.

Here are some additional features:

Security when traveling: The trip commander, which could be a parent, spouse, friend or co-worker can monitor the trip from their own device.
Waypoints and Recommendations: Once a trip is created and waypoints are dropped, the app will provide recommendations based on the category selected for each waypoint.
Notifications and Messaging: The trip commander receives notifications throughout the trip and will send messages to each member.
Traffic and Weather: Active traffic is visible on the map and weather is available for each waypoint.

An application that fosters voter registration in local and national US elections

Download. Register. Vote.

The Voter Registration Application Challenge

Increasing voter participation in America is among the nation’s top priorities. One of the main challenges is setting up a hassle-free registration process for voters. Eliminating complexity from registration procedures encourages more citizens to participate in the democratic process.

The Vision Behind the App

Register 2 Vote was created with the intention of building a web application that will allow users to register for voting in the local and national US elections. The goal of the app is to increase voter participation by making the registration process easier.

The Scopic Solution

Register 2 Vote is an example of a web application that allows users to register to vote in the local and national US elections. The Scopic team developed the application’s architecture and UX/UI design to be very intuitive and user-friendly. Users can register for voting in minutes by taking photos of their driver’s license to confirm their ID. The software will then generate a QR code that can be used to vote at the closest polling station. In addition, the app is programmed to find polling stations nearest to users via GPS.

An application where users can leave their mark on a location

Mark the map.

The Geolocation Application Challenge

Globetrotting has become increasingly more popular in recent years, creating a need and even a desire to document and track one’s travels. The challenge is to create a simple, no-frills app that lets travellers leave their mark on the world.

The Vision Behind the App

The company behind ThoughtFi envisioned an app that would let users mark their location along with a text message and photo. To make the app more accessible it was important to allow for login via major social media platforms. With this idea in mind, the company reached out to Scopic to begin developing the geolocation app.

The Scopic Solution

ThoughtFi is an application where users can post their marks on a location. A mark is a user’s thought including location, text message, and a photo. Users can post comments to another user’s marks. The users can log-in by using OAuth 2.0 (Facebook, Google+, Twitter), or they can sign-up and log-in using their email address. They can share their marks, search other’s marks around their locations and view a map showing all the marks globally.

SYRF

Accurate, Real-time Data for Tracking Yacht Races

High performance, low latency feed.

The Sailing Performance Challenge

In sailing, the use of data analytics is on the rise. Data analytics helps to make better decisions, resulting in a better performance. With the vast majority of sailors around the world competing in handicap racing, the challenge is to improve their experience by giving data-based support to boost the accuracy and usability of existing systems and rules. Enthusiasm and involvement are frequently undermined by the perception that the rating rules are unfair, so the challenge lies in helping these rules improve.

The Vision Behind the App

The company aimed to provide a robust solution that would gather data through mobile devices. This would be applied in the sport of sailing. Their vision was to use the data to analyse the performance of the boats and as such be able to make better decisions.

The company needed it to be designed specifically to capture such information with additional utility components such as geolocation through a user-friendly interface. They trusted Scopic to turn their idea to life.

The Scopic Solution

Scopic participated in shaping the client’s product and completing an MVP for the SYRF mobile application. Our backend experts created a central database that gathers real-time information from regattas and races that are run through the mobile app. The platform is also able to communicate with ORC databases and other third party applications. Some of the features offered to the users are:

Real- time GPS location tracking

Analyzing data and showing live race results

Live simulation of sailing

Live race scoring

Regatta Competition Management

And more!
