Automatic Toppings Generation For Ice Cream

Inspiration

We wanted people to have the opportunity to try different ice cream toppings by creating a code that will choose a topping for an individual hands-free.

What it does

it randomizes toppings of ice cream by generating a random number that is specific to a flavor of ice cream and visualizes the simulation of the toppings being chosen

How we built it

We built the ice cream animation on Figma and the outlined task process. We coded a random number generator on Video Studio 2019

Challenges we ran into

We’re both beginner coders and learning code was exciting but also a bit difficult when connecting our ideas to what we wanted to implement. Though we did come up with a random generator we wanted to also add in variables of the toppings and different types of ice cream flavors.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Some, accomplishments we are proud of is that we were able to learn a new skill on Figma animation that enables us to show that random selection of toppings. Flor is a bioengineer major and she is proud that she is able to step out of her element and have fun creating a code that ultimately gives her the opportunity to participate in a project. Zakiya is very supportive of Flor by sharing her knowledge with her and working together side by side on this inspiring project.

What we learned

We learned to work as a team by communicating and sharing ideas with one another to create a project. We learned to use Figma Professional Plan which was a new website we were able to successfully use in our project. Zakiya was able to teach Flor how to code C++ for the first time.

What's next for Automatic Toppings Generation For Ice Cream

Our plan is to broaden our code and add variables of ice cream flavors. We also plan on creating a survey that we can share in our university that can identify what are the best topping flavors majority of people would like to try.
