Inspiration
The inspiration for our project came from the fact that Covid 19 has changed all of our lives in a significant way, and ensuring everyone is safe and healthy is a primary priority. Therefore, our app uses bluetooth technology to detect people within a 6 ft radius of eachother and alerts them if they are at risk for Covid-19.
What it does
When two people come between a 6 foot radius of eachother, the app uses bluetooth technology to exchange private codes which will be stored on each person's phone. Then if someone tests positive for covid, they upload their code to a database, and each person's phone checks the codes stored on their device to see if they have the code which tested positive for covid and if so, is given rigorous quarantining instructions.
How we built it
We built the app in javascript and html.
Challenges we ran into
We ran into many challenges in making the UI, and also the back end framework.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Buidling the app.
What we learned
We learned many interesting things about the feasibility of javascript, and how it can work well with other plugins.
What's next for Covid Control
OUr next plans are to make the UI better and keep the back end fully functional.
