For the reproplan group, we have taken over the software development of an online portal for processing plotting and printing orders. The customers, primarily from the construction and engineering sector, can use the print portal to process time-critical plot orders in the highest quality - with the simplest possible handling.

The application provides a number of national branches with a backend that processes all print jobs largely automatically and generates the required documents. A dedicated server guarantees maximum availability with maximum bandwidth. The application processes around 100 GB of print data per month.

Browser extensions (helper objects) for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox

In several projects for companies in Germany and the UK, we have implemented browser extensions for both Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. These extensions (BHO - Browser Helper Objects) make it possible to protect the user's activities while they are browsing the Internet.

Feedbar

A browser extension that displays a news ticker from any RSS (news feed) source on the Internet as a ticker in the browser. The ticker can be paused with the mouse to call up more information on the corresponding headline. You can access the complete article by clicking on the text.

Payment system

As part of an online payment system, a preloader was created that informs users about the details of the payment system and then activates it. The main focus here was on the ability to run in a variety of browsers and a minimal transfer size.

With a size of less than 100 KByte, the resulting browser extension was extremely small and can be loaded in just a few seconds, even on slow connections.

Childproofing and protection

For the "Surfing Shield Toolbar" project, a browser extension was developed that ensures safe browsing on the Internet, especially for use as a parental control.

A whitelist / blacklist procedure is used to block URLs with content that is unsuitable for children or sites with clearly malicious software. Users can add addresses themselves or classify other addresses as harmless. Both lists are constantly updated centrally and thus kept up to date.

All search queries are filtered centrally and unwanted results are removed. There is also a corresponding filter for removing advertising banners.

Survey toolbar

In collaboration with one of the largest market research companies in the world (according to its own information), a browser extension was developed to record all of a user's actions in the browser.

The aim was the comprehensive and anonymized recording of all activities of a user on the Internet, with regard to the perception of advertising messages and the evaluation of the relevance of advertising for the user.

This extension is installed in the area of market research with the user's consent and records all of the user's movements centrally over a certain period of time (e.g. 6 weeks). A variety of correlations can then be analyzed, e.g. which advertising messages were relevant and clicked on by the user, and which were not.
