RPI UNDERGRADUATES UNVEIL OPEN SOURCE IPHONE APPLCATION
_ _
Troy, New York – Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute undergraduates Amit Kumar and Devin Ross have built an open source money management application for the iPhone and iPod Touch. In conjunction with RPI Computer Science Department’s initiative to develop open source software, Kumar and Ross worked with the support of Sean O’Sullivan and Professor Mukkai Krishnamoorthy to create an application catered to bounds of mobile devices.
The application, title “Vault”, allows users to quickly add transactions to their bank accounts, and keep account balances up to date. In addition, users can quickly launch their bank’s website or find their bank’s nearest local branch.
Vault is currently available for free download from the iTunes Store. The project source is located on http://code.google.com/p/rpiiphone/source/browse/ and the development blog can be found at http://rpiiphoneproject.wordpress.com/.
