The current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
is having a significant impact on people's
health especially for students, as well as how
they learn, work, and live. One of the most
significant challenges posed by COVID-19 is
how to adapt to an educational system based
on online schools. Student’s cannot even do
hands-on activities because of COVID-19, so
students only have the knowledge but they
don’t have experience.
The PC building simulator is useful
during a pandemic, when students can
only stay at home and most of them do
not have the tools or items required to
practice building a PC/computer. With
the help of a PC building simulator,
students or newbie builder’s can now
build a PC/computer without worrying
about the tools they need, since this
will provide them with the tools and
items that are needed for building a
PC/computer.
 It will also act as a teacher because it
will guide the students and teach
them the right thing to do when they
are in the process of building a
computer. So students can get
experience from building a pc by
using a pc building simulator. Also
student’s will be able to learn the
important parts of a computer.
 TARGET USER
.
For this study the target user will be the newbie in building
a PC and mainly the students of University of Northern
Philippines particularly in the College of Communication
and Information Technology.

MENTIS
ASSISTANT
Students suffered from different mental health conditions even
before COVID-19, where there was still a face to face class.
But now, classes are being held via online video chat or online
message (e.g. messenger). There are some students who can’t
really afford an internet service provider or mobile data who
are studying in UNP since it’s expensive and for mobile data,
the consumption rate is fast and it consumes a lot.
So what this mentis assistant does, is a virtual assistant
specifically for mental aid. This is a virtual assistant that gives
a lot of advice to the user regarding mental health. Also helps
students/users to ease up their mind.
TARGET USER

The main target are the students of

UNP.
But it would still help other people who
are suffering from mental problems.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

The mentis assistant will give advice on the

students if they are suffering from any type of
mental problem/s. And it will ease their mind.
The advice is going to be trustworthy.
SYSTEM FEATURE
1.It will have a trigger

depression) affect how college students engage with
studying?

AR ANIMAL
VIEWER
Every kid wants to see the animals in person, to see their
cuteness or to see how big the animals are (e.g. whale).
But, there are certain places where animals can’t go. And
there are animals that are dangerous for us like sharks and
we can only see them from a far distance. Also a sea
creature won’t be able to go on land and as for people, not
all places have aquariums like the ones in Manila and not
all people can afford to go to manila. Right now, COVID-
19 is everywhere and people can’t visit aquariums for
sightseeing.
What this AR Animal viewer does is, the user will be able to
see the animals in a well detailed way. Wherein the kids or the
user will be able to see the size or how big the animal is up
close(e.g. Whale) using smartphones. This is also good for
saving money and it is much safer since you will be able to
avoid getting in contact with someone and you’ll be able to see
dangerous animals like the cheetah up close . This app can be
used anywhere as long as you have a smartphone
TARGET USER
The main target is kids. But it can
be used by anyone who wants or
who is curious about seeing a 3d
animal in front of them.
 SYSTEM

Basically, AR Animal is about a. Detailed appearance of an
seeing the animal through your Animal
phone. Wherein you will be able to b. Animal Sound
see the size of the animal, body, c. Detailed description of the animal
color, and animal sound (e.g. d. Quizzes
Whale). In a 3d appearance.
