Project FIN

Inspiration

• Untracked Equipment (nets, traps, buoys etc.) in the ocean
• Some of lost, stolen, discarded, missing and dumped without permission
• Difficult for the fishermen to report and retrieve lost, stolen, missing and equipment
• Difficult to prosecute/fine illegally dumped equipment

What it does

Simple solution for tagging and tracking. Lost and missing hardware can be reported and returned as well.

How I built it

Low Cost hardware and software

Challenges I ran into

See challenges section in the presentation

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Maybe a global standard one day

What I learned

Lots

What's next for Project FIN
