O-25 FollowMe

Inspiration

talking with mentors concert wristband

What it does

Giving information to remind groups of where the group is heading now by showing the color of wristband (it is flashy), and also sending vibrating signals to alert people that they are heading to other places so they don't get lost when they're busy and look for their group.

How we built it

using moblile app, IoT

Challenges we ran into

Understanding Hajj, ( basically, most of our group didn't know anything about Hajj.)

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Finally, we got an idea! assumed

What we learned

Understanding Hajj

What's next for O-25 link-wrist band

we will create mobile app on emulator.

A project description

a wear OS app, and a wristband. The app should be used by the leader of their group in Hajj to communicate with the group of pilgrims by sending signals to the wristbands held by each pilgrim in the group. the wristbands are flashing.

The existing code before the hackathon (APIs, open source, your own code ...)

none.

What has been created during the hackathon

“Elevator pitch”

To solve the communication problem in a hajj group and getting lost, we are creating this application that works with Android wear (longer lasting battery, easier to check). The leader can use the app to send a "shake" signal to the flashy wristbands when the group is moving from one place to the other, just to notify them and keep them ready in case they were not around. The wristbands are also helpful because they have a distinguished flashy color so the group members can find each other from afar (so useful in the dark).
