Real builds from real GDG chapters. Two hours, one pizza, one prototype. Search by name, narrow to a GDG group or a date range — or scroll until something makes you want to fork it.
Pocket Map is a mood-driven location discovery app where users snap and pin cozy hidden gems to a shared map. Guided by Pickles, an empathetic AI raccoon companion, users describe how they feel—and Pickles analyzes community photos to match their exact vibe with the perfect local sanctuary.
“We are really surprised by the capabilities and speed of Google AI Studio.”
The project involved creating an immersive 3D racing game set in a captivating sci-fi universe. Players find themselves in a futuristic landscape filled with neon-lit cityscapes and breathtaking alien terrains.
“Google Pro is an advanced and versatile modeling tool that allows users to quickly prototype and craft immersive 3D environments. With its intuitive interface and robust features, you can seamlessly bring your creative visions to life, transforming ideas into vibrant digital landscapes almost instantly.”
This app is a conversational AI stylist for your closet: it asks about your mood, who you’re dressing for, and the occasion (or trip details), then generates complete, head-to-toe outfits pulled from your own digitized wardrobe — shown as e-commerce-style look cards with Add to Bag, Favorite, and Customize options. It also handles multi-person trip packing (partner/family), weather-aware travel essentials, and destination-only shopping suggestions, all wrapped in a friendly “best friend stylist”
“I assumed the hard part would be the styling logic. It wasn’t, the hard part was getting the AI to remember it already knew you were shopping solo, and to stop asking.”
VibeTrav is a medical tourism platform that helps people discover and plan authentic healthcare journeys, with a dedicated focus on Ayurveda. The new Ayurveda Centers feature lets users explore highly recommended treatment centers first, then browse a wider directory with powerful filters by location, treatment type, and budget. It is designed for international patients seeking trusted, high-quality Ayurvedic care without the usual research overwhelm.
“What surprised me most was how strongly users wanted a clear separation between “highly recommended” centers and the broader list. Prioritizing quality over quantity proved more important than simply showing a large number of options.”
TourCare NYC is an AI-powered travel assistant designed to help visitors and residents explore New York City through personalized, real-time recommendations. The solution combines conversational AI, location-aware intelligence, and personalized itinerary generation to create a seamless travel experience. Users can ask natural language questions such as: "What are the best family-friendly attractions near me?" "Plan a half-day itinerary in Manhattan." "Suggest accessible attractions within 30 m
“Team work, AI capabilities, Real word problem”
SideQuest NYC is a personalized event discovery app for people who want spontaneous, local things to do without digging through dozens of websites. Users can search by voice or filters like interest, budget, location, and vibe to find nearby events happening now or in the next few days. The cool part is that it understands requests like “find something low-key and not too crowded” and turns them into tailored recommendations.
“One of the biggest challenges was accurately scraping event locations and times from multiple websites, since each source formatted its data differently. Normalizing inconsistent dates, addresses, and missing information made it difficult to produce reliable real-time recommendations.”
Art Attack is a real-time two-player fighting game where each player draws their own character, then AI turns the sketch into a fighter with stats, abilities, a sprite, and an arena theme. Players can join from another device, lock in their characters, watch the battle intro, and fight live in the same arena. The cool part is that every match begins with something completely original that the players created themselves.
“I was surprised by how many small real-time state changes have to stay perfectly synced for the experience to feel seamless. A single missed update after character lock-in could prevent the entire match from reaching the battlefield, which made reliable multiplayer flow just as important as the AI character generation.”
SafeLink is a one-tap emergency app for anyone who feels unsafe on the street or gets caught in an accident. It starts recording and tracking your location the moment you open it, then lets you send that location and footage to police, ambulance, or fire with a single button — or dial 911 directly. Gemini turns whatever you can manage to type into a structured dispatch report, so responders get clear information even when you can't explain the situation yourself.
“How much of "send a live stream to the police" turns out to be impossible in a browser. There's no endpoint to send to, and phones won't even record both cameras at once — so most of the work became figuring out what was real versus what I had to honestly label as simulated.”
Film Room turns a phone video of one pickup basketball possession into a coach's breakdown — annotated video, real spatial analytics, and a bridge to the NBA action it resembles — so you learn to read the game by studying your own film.
“The model turned out to be far better at reading basketball than at telling my friends apart — it diagnosed the blown switch instantly but couldn't reliably say who blew it, which forced me to design the whole system so the tactical read still holds when player identification fails.”
Our project is a multiplayer AI-powered rhythm game where two players compete by playing virtual instruments using hand gestures in front of a webcam. The game tracks each player's movements in real time and scores their performance based on accuracy and timing. It creates an interactive and fun way to enjoy music without needing any physical instruments.
“We were surprised by how challenging it was to keep the multiplayer gameplay smooth while accurately tracking hand gestures in real time. Even small delays could affect the overall gaming experience.”
Remote interviews have a trust problem right now: candidates using invisible AI tools to feed them answers live, and in some cases, people who aren't even who they say they are. CandidAI is a multi-agent system that sits in the interview, watches for those red flags across identity, behavior, and language, and quietly tells the interviewer, "hey, might want to ask a follow-up here." It never rejects anyone; it just makes sure the human making the call actually has the full picture.
“Honestly, the detection part was the easy half. What actually kept me up was the guardrail design, figuring out how to flag real cheating without accidentally penalizing someone who's neurodivergent, has bad wifi, or talks with a different rhythm than what the model expects as "normal."”
Napkin turns photographs of hand-drawn app sketches or whiteboard mockups into live, interactive web applications in seconds. Powered by Gemini Vision and code generation, Napkin extracts UI components, pre-populates stateful demo data, and instantly serves a shareable web app complete with device preview frames and QR codes for mobile testing. It bridges the gap between raw paper brainstorming and functional software prototyping effortlessly.
“What surprised us most was how gemini transformed pen-and-paper scribbles into fully web applications without requiring design templates.”
