Appart from our apps on the store people also turn to drobnik.com to their app ideas a reality. Here is a selection of our customers.

ELO Digital Office GmbH

ELO is the digital document dependance of Leitz which specializes in managing digital contents and workflows in medium to big enterprises.

ELO for Smartphone 2010

We developed the iPhone client for accessing ELO’s digital document management system. This involves parsing of Atom feeds, navigating folder structures, display of individual documents (as supported by the iPhone) and task flow management features.

A standing contract still exists and we are continuing to add new features for Version 2.0. ELO for Smartphones 2010 is available for free on iTunes

Michael Görmann

Michael Görmann is passionate about his photography art using infrared technology.

The artist approached us wishing for sort of a calling card  app. He envisioned to be able to provide his visually impressive infrared photos for free to users to be used as iPhone wallpapers. Our partner Ciqua came up with an inexpensive yet visually appealing approach which found immediate liking of the German app store team. So it was featured as “New and Notable” immediately after approval.

IR Photography was downloaded over 55,000 times in 8 days making it jump to top rank in free photography-realted downloads in Austria and Germany, as well as top 10 in all free apps. Infrared Photography is available for free on iTunes.

Our work on image downloading, caching and presenting is also attracting other customers wishing for similar apps presenting their works.

Current Clinical Strategies Publishing

CCS Publishing has an extensive catalog of medical documentation and learning aids. We helped to bring this content onto the iPhone.

H1N1 Swine Flu Defender

The customer approached us with the task of developing this app from scratch in less than 2 weeks due to an expected major outbreak of H1N1. So we set up to create a check list engine, which allows the user to answer questions in multiple categories which help a medical professional assess the likelyhood of a H1N1 infection. The summary report can be saved or mailed as HTML E-Mail. H1N1 Swine Flu Defender is available on iTunes.

This time-critical app was finished in 10 days and flash-approved by apple on special request.

Chest X-Ray Interpreter

At first we where approached with the task of “fixing” an existing version of this app which was made by another vendor. But because of the crappy programming design we chose to enhance our check list engine to fulfill the customer’s need in record time and record cost. In this example you are guided through a number of areas in interpreting a chest x-ray photo. You answer questions and an ad-hoc diagnosis slides in below. At the end you get a summary report which you can save or e-mail. Additionally there is an image gallery with sample images about certain patient conditions. Chest X-Ray Interpreter is available on iTunes

Because of the high reusability of our code the customer was able to exchange the content of this app and also make a CT Scan Interpreter at no extra cost.

USMLE Wiz 1 Flash Memory Cards

We developed a highly reusable flash card app engine from scratch. The USMLE is an important medical examination for which users can study with this app. Users can select from multiple categories where they are presented with medical questions. They can turn over the card to see the answer. If they did not know the answer they can put the question into a study folder from where they can repeat the process. USMLE Wiz 1 is available on iTunes.

We helped the customer to set up one XCode project with all derived apps so that he could easily update all apps using the same engine if there was a bugfix are new feature to the underlying app. Also because of the app design the customer was able to create a multitude of similar apps, each with different content: USMLE Wiz 2, PALS Wiz, Microbiology Wiz, NCLEX-RN Wiz, ACLS Wiz.

Medicine On-Call

For this app we partnered with Ciqua to co-develop a comprehensive e-Book app engine. This book contains treatments and laboratory test orders for diseases which are likely to be encountered when working in a hospital. It was especially challenging to clean up the provided HTML code which was made by exporting a WordPorfect document. Our engine allows for quick transformation of any sectioned HTML document into an eBook. Medicine On-Call is available on iTunes.

Our e-Book app engine requires such a low implementation overhead that the customer was able to create History and Physical Examination without our involvement.
