Stanford University
Leslie Shao-ming Sun Field Station

In 2012, Cookware received a contract to provide assistance in creating a Telemetry and Control for the Leslie Shao-ming Sun Field Station at Stanford University.

The Software System consists of a system similar to what we designed for HPA ELab (see below). All aspects of the building are computer controlled, from air quality, ventilation, water, to electricity and lighting.

Cookware software provides both the Telemetry software and the Control software. The Telemetry software monitors all aspects of the building, and provides alarms, graphs, and historical views. The Control software monitors the building and varies different controls to keep the building in the desired environmental state.

TQWorld Tranquility

In 1998 Cookware partnered with Prairie Research to create TQWorld, an LLC. TQWorld hosts the popular game Tranquility.

Tranquility is a game of relaxation and enjoyment. Fully 3D, Tranquility takes place in a huge space, with millions of stars. Geometric platforms, which start out easy but progressively get harder allow users to climb higher and higher is search for spinners. After hitting 7 spinners in a level, users transcend to the next level in the game.

With hundreds of levels, and with each set of 7 levels adding new problems to master, the game provides nearly unlimited play and enjoyment.

Custom music accompanies each level and users will never play the same level twice (no matter how many times they replay the game).

Users can save favorite levels for varied replay, and even create their own levels and let other players try them out.

Tranquility is available for the Apple OSX platform and also Windows PC platform.
