Inspiration
Firefighters are gaining new technology to help aid battling fires but people on the inside don't so that's why we built Firewatch.
What it does
Firewatch locates people trapped in a burning house/crisis and guides them to the nearest exit safely while assessing blockages and debris along the way maintaining the guise of keeping the people safe.
How we built it
we built Firewatch using arduino, raspberry pi, overshoot, as well as a 4 wheel drive car kid to demo the device.
Challenges we ran into
The biggest challenges we ran into were getting the arduino code to work as well as configuring webcam permissions on chromium and firefox.
