Keynote: Student and Intern Showcase!
summary
Seven UMass Lowell SoarCS projects plus Red Hat intern work show concrete builds and results: QuickSwitch copies entire playlists between services via OAuth and a JSON middleman demoed working end-to-end; a Tileset Maker auto-generates 47 tiles from eight drawn pieces; small games and a Godot RPG run and demo; a Pyphone bundles six apps using OpenCV and Pygame; a Scramble app implements a timer and notation guide. An ALPR prototype chains YOLOv8 detection to an OCR model but misses characters on a $20 webcam. The Open Education Project supplies a CLI to author containerized Jupyter labs and textbooks (targets 500 BU students, integrates InstructLab), and ESI UI on OpenStack Dashboard adds a Horizon plugin for bare‑metal leasing with visual topology and a three‑field provisioning flow replacing long CLI commands.
