Project Summary

GITEX is an annual consumer computer and electronics trade show, exhibition and conference which take place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates at the Dubai World Trade Centre. The GITEX Shopper & Consumer Electronics Expo attracts ICT retailers and suppliers with top companies. The consumer participants include IT professionals, technology enthusiasts, students and consumers as well as regional traders.

Neologix designed and developed an android app for Sharjah E-Government Majlis Management Application integrated with Google Glass, which is a wearable technology with an optical head mounted display, in which wearer can communicate through voice commands. This android app is designed with an intention to help the persons visiting the GITEX (Gulf Information Technology Exhibition).With the exquisite event stand that Sharjah e-Government possessed, it had a dome-type venue with numerous Majlis (tables with provision for meeting and discussion) that spanned over two floors. With the venue having three reception areas for coordinating the event stand premises, Neologix assigned varied roles for reception users like super administrators, and so on. The system provided the client with the facility for the department users to book and manage their sessions independently.
