The user would have to press a button to let the app know that they’d made a turn, so it would only track location due to user interaction,” Ethan said. “The assignment was simply to create an app to track routes for runners. He used the assignment in this course to his advantage, and put his own innovative twist on the project. You can see all the routes you’ve taken, where they were, when you took them, and how far you ran.” The app is available for download here: Ethan was inspired to create the app because it actually began as an assignment in his App Development class at RHS. “My main goal in creating this app was to create something that is very simple to use and straight to the point.
“While there are some apps out there that include similar functionality, they are often locked behind needing a smartwatch, or are too complicated to learn,” Ethan said. It will also calculate the distance someone ran as well as the amount of time it took to complete the run. Anyone who downloads the app can start it before a run and it will track the route on a map. Run Mapper keeps track of the path you take while running.
His latest project Run Mapper, available on iTunes today, is a brand-new mobile application he developed to help runners navigate their routines. In his spare time, Ethan has used his passion for computer science to begin to work on projects that can add value to people’s lives. He is also President of Robotics Club and is on the board of Computer Club where he has participated in competitions like CyberPatriot where participants are tasked with securing computers against hackers. During his time at Randolph, Ethan has been heavily involved in numerous honor societies.
