DME4 Student wins Fujitsu Award for Innovation at DCU

Anoop Sebastian, a final year student in Digital Media Engineering, has created a web-based programme to tackle the difficulties experienced by Android app developers. His Integrated Development Environment (IDE) provides easy access to Android development tools allowing the user to focus his or her attention purely on app development. His innovation allows apps to be wirelessly deployed to an Android phone and for log messages generated on the phone to be wirelessly relayed to the web based IDE. This type of tool could potentially make Android application development much more accessible to those new to the discipline. Anoop won in the Student Category and was presented by Regina Moran, CEO of Fujitsu Ireland, and Professor Brian MacCraith, President of DCU, at The Helix.
