Reactive Games. Tangible game system for geometry learning
Hornos Arias, Josep
From the ancient Egypt to our days games evolved continuously. Several innovations in technology
made possible to play with people around the world, or simulate realities to give new experiences
to players. But this evolution shows us that could be more than pure entertainment in games.
Serious games offer a new vision: a way to teach, to train or even perform advertising campaigns.
The use of games for teaching purposes is one of the pillars of this thesis.
Bearing in mind that in our country the learning of mathematics is one of the key problems related
with school failure, serious games could help professionals to detect deficiencies on the system in
order to find a solution.
The main goal of this master thesis is to focus on one important area of mathematics and
implement a tangible game system for teaching children geometry. With the use of a tangible table,
kids could interact in a physical way with the designed video games, making the experience more
attractive and helpful. Additionally, it is possible to evaluate if the children improved their spatial
skills by this method, acquiring useful statistics about them while they are playing.
The games implemented on the prototype (one based on puzzles and the other on geometry
questions) are fully functional and the system is prepared to be used. During the implementation
process, different adjustments and changes respect the original idea have been made, in order to
guarantee that the machine is operative and available to perform a proof of concept: let the
children play and verify if the premises about learning by this method were correct.

Let's Go Padel. Simplifying padel tournaments management
Maurí, Marc
Let's Go Padel offers to padel tournament organizers, clubs or specialized companies a set of mobile applications to improve the management and monitoring of their tournaments while improving the relationship with the players. The management application lets you cover the end-to-end cycle of the tournament, reducing management costs and improving efficiency. At the same time, the application for players allows the tournament follow up in real time and from anywhere, increasing the players‟ satisfaction and loyalty for upcoming tournaments. For the development of the solution we used some of the latest technologies such as cloud systems and multi-platform development frameworks, getting a highly functional, high performance and attractive design, usable from multiple platforms and devices. The result of this work consists of a mobile application for managers developed with the framework Ionic, a second application for players, developed with Objective C and all of it integrated with Parse, a backend cloud platform that stores data and provides secure data access as well as cloud code to manage key processes. The application for managers is designed for use in tablet devices or computer and is available for iOS and Android platforms as well as access via web browser. The application for players instead is designed for smartphones and tablets and is available for iOS platforms. This set of applications born to fill a real need in the market for which there are no equivalent solutions, meets the objectives and provides a solution that can create a turning point in the management of padel tournaments.

Background:
Essential
Tremor
(ET)
is
the
most
frequent
movement
disorder
and
in
particular,
essential
tremor
is
the
most
cause
of
postural
tremor
in
humans.
The
definition
and
classification
of
essential
tremor
are
still
based
on
clinical
phenomena,
and
none
of
a
clinical
features
of
essential
tremor
is
entirely
specific
or
sensitive
for
this
condition
(Gironell,
2011).
Objective:
In
order
to
connect
the
patient
with
the
doctor,
the
main
objective
of
this
project
is
developing
an
entire
framework
that
implement
a
complete
system
cloud-‐based
for
capture
the
tremor
characteristics
using
the
smartphone.
Methods:
We
designed
and
developed
a
mobile
app
for
iOS
platform
to
collect
tremor
characteristics
using
the
smartphone
accelerometer,
and
send
the
data
to
cloud
for
storage
and
processing.
Medical
Staff
can
view
all
of
data
and
evaluate
the
level
and
the
type
of
the
tremor.
Results:
We
use
a
mathematical
transformation
of
data
to
obtain
the
power
spectrum
peak.
This
is
the
most
important
data
that
the
Neurologist
specialist
needs
to
evaluate
the
tremor.
We
compared
the
results
obtained
using
iPhone
and
using
the
traditional
method
and
the
values
are
similar.
However,
we
propose
to
realize
a
serious
clinical
test
and
modify
the
signal
processing
procedures
in
order
to
approximate
both
results.
Conclusions:
Our
objective
in
this
project
is
provide
a
complete
framework
to
Patients
and
to
Professionals
to
improve
detection,
treatment
and
facilitate
the
work
between
both.
Tremor
Clinic
wants
to
become
a
complete
framework
for
diagnosis.
From
the
point
of
view
of
business,
we
have
developed
a
Medical
Solution
and
improve
Mobile
Health
care.
We
provide
with
this
work
a
complete
set
of
tools
that
help
the
Scientific
Community
incorporate
mobile
health
solutions
in
their
work.
Is
a
starting
point
to
further
research
the
reliability
about
smartphone
features
vs
clinical
equipment.

In the society we lived the new technologies have become an indispensable tool for our day.
With the creation of communication networks, currently anyone at any time with a device with
network access can obtain information to respond to their human needs and expand their
knowledge.
In the last years, important devices have appeared on the market to use in our everyday life, such as
the smartphones. The technology has been forced to move forward and bring new products to the
market to meet the need, whether profit, educational, business, etc.
If we think on our childhood as students, we can remember the suitcase full of books and the
teacher writing on the blackboard. With the progress of new technologies, this is going to change.
In a nearer future will be possible to learn using 3D environments.
