Overview
Scheduling and resource allocation within busy educational environments is a notoriously complex problem. Administrators spend hours manually balancing room availability, teacher certifications, substitute mapping, and class rotations. EduPlanner replaces this chaotic process with an intelligent, automated scheduling engine that handles intricate constraints instantly.
How It Works
The system takes raw operational constraints—such as teacher availability, room capacities, curriculum tracks, and staff rotation rules—and processes them to generate optimal, conflict-free schedules. It actively flags potential issues and automatically suggests optimal substitute coverage or room re-mappings in real-time when changes occur.
Technical Deep Dive & Guardrails
Advanced AI Reasoning: Powered by a customized Google Gemini reasoning model that processes complex constraint matrices using recursive structural constraint re-weaving to find optimal scheduling paths.
Conflict Resolution Engine: Features a hard-coded algorithmic layer that enforces business rules with zero margins for error (e.g., ensuring a teacher is never double-booked across physical branches).
Real-Time Adaptability: Built to handle dynamic, live operational friction, such as last-minute sick leaves, by automatically recalculating and suggesting the lowest-impact substitute rotation.

Handsign Arcade: play rock paper scissors on a beat.
Emoji cues fall down three lanes. You hit them by physically throwing 🪨 📄 ✂️ at the camera. The Lens reads your actual hand sign and shows you what it detected live, so a miss is never a mystery.
Keep hitting the lanes without dropping one and the COMBO kicks in!!
The idea: dance arcade, but on your phone, and your hands do the dancing. All down to testing your reflex 😆
The first idea that didn't work: I started with head nods and head shakes as
the input. Failed miserably. When your head moves to hit a cue, th cues move with it in frame, so you lose sight of the exact thing you're aiming at. Also nobody wants to look like they're head banging at their phone in public, so...
The second idea that didn't make the cut: music. It's a rhythm game with no
music, because syncing audio was harder than it was worth 🥹 So the rhythm is carried entirely by the falling cues. Visual, not audible, which means it plays fine on mute, which is how most people scroll anyway.
So much learned from this one. Built entirely in Easy Lens. Without further
ado, I present: Handsign Arcade ♥️
Best regards for this amazing challenge @Easy Lens and @Contra
Interesting and fun idea 😆
