Inspiration
Global warming is a problem that needs to be fixed for a future of a problem.
There is a lot of roads that are jam packed with cars.
A carpool app solved both of these problems as well as giving a ride to anyone who needs it.
What it does
This app allows a driver to accept a request of someone who wants a ride to lower pollution and reduce the number of cars on the road by half.
How we built it
Flutter was used as the frontend (supports mobile and web) and a mysql database.
Challenges we ran into
Mysql access denied when it was working moments ago
Running app on emulator set a different localhost
Flutter version conflicted package versions
Mysql query errors
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Everything in the app works, it is completely functional.
What we learned
Learned connecting flutter and mysql.
What's next for O(1) - team 33 - Carspace
Future expansions of this project include
Allow multiple groups to carpool at the same time by matching locations
Perform algorithm to find most used routes and paths by users
Perform some sort of ml clustering to find most used pickup and dropoff
Find a way for drivers to get more benefits
For each ride drivers can get coupons for local businesses / extra money
