Mobile and wearable devices have had a dramatic impact on a vast array of new areas including psychology, medicine, global health, music, banking, cooking, exploring, travel, shopping, and games. Many more things are possible, and so the purpose of this course is to encourage creativity in the creation of new applications of mobile, wearable devices, often together with online servers in an inter-disciplinary environment.

The course is open to all graduate students at the University of Toronto, and is primarily a project-based course in which the goal is to produce a working app by the end of course. This course is a mixture of technical work, creativity in the medium of software mobile applications, communication and inter-disciplinary interaction.
