Software and hardware built in Vancouver

Porus for strata councils, diveSphere for divers, and bzzy, a status light for your desk. By day I run a property management department.

Software I build and run

  1. Porus, strata governance software

    Quote requests, council votes in one tap with no account, and minutes kept on one ledger. It began as a PowerApp for one brokerage.

    The porus.ca home page: a strata task moving from capture to quotes, a council vote, minutes and the chosen vendor
  2. diveSphere, dive logbook software

    Drop a Shearwater, Suunto, Garmin or UDDF file and the dive lands with its depth profile and temperatures. 73 dive sites mapped so far.

    The divesphere.app home page with a logged dive at Bird Islet: 32 m, 49 minutes, 10 °C water
  3. bzzy, a hardware status light

    Set Free, Busy, Do not disturb or Away from your phone or calendar, and the light on your monitor shows it. The app runs at bzzy.ca.

The bzzy ring board and case

An ESP32-S3 with a 1.69-inch touch screen, a 16-LED ring board I laid out in KiCad, and a printed case that clips to a monitor. Rev C passes its design-rule check; the first one gets built next.

About

By day I run the property management department at Korecki Real Estate Services. The rest of the time I build. Porus started as a PowerApp for one brokerage and grew into a product.
