1. "Where's the Bus?" App- I don't know whether it was indirectly "stolen" from JagsExpress 2.0, or if this already exists in Indianapolis, but I was inspired by IndyGo, because I've had to take public transportation downtown in order to get to IUPUI for the past three years. Sometimes the bus comes late, but other times, the bus comes earlier than expected, so I could miss the bus at times. This app could help trace an IndyGo bus's location, depending on the selected route. This app would work on iPhone, Android, or any other smartphone.

2. 3D Haunted House Tour-This was a possible idea every since I passed Seeing Sideways and visited the Advanced Visualization Laboratory in the IT building's 4th Floor. If this idea is chosen, I would use the AVL technology, Maya, and perhaps Photoshop for the Textures. I'm not certain whether I will need to use Unreal Editor for this project.
3. Create a website using some sort of easter egg-Inspired by the Konami Code(up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B button, A button, and Start/Enter) and websites that use this for easter eggs(http://konamicodesites.com/), I hope to reverse engineer "easter egg" websites to create my own. The problem is that my access to the Pegasus server is probably cut off due to lack of use since my CSCI-N341(Javascript) class, so I don't know how else to host my website for the Capstone presentation. This may have also been inspired by "Mat Powers' Game On! History of Video Games" class.
4. Website cataloguing all of the "must-eat" places in Indianapolis/Indy Metro-This was inspired by sites such as Yelp and Urbanspoon and by shows like Travel Channel's Man vs. Food.
Originally, it would have been a a collection of "Must-eat" places around the country based on ratings and exposure from shows like Man Vs. Food, but time might not allow for that, plus the aforementioned problem with hosting can hinder this project as well.
I have included my inspirations in the above post as either pictures or links to other websites.
