Inspiration

Current charging solutions require a user RFID card to activate charging. We develop a solution to replace these cards by a wireless beacon that will cost less than $2.

What it does

ChargePod sends the data points of car and user to the charging station to authenticate charging. It, can be installed in any EV and it will authenticate the user automatically within seconds.

How I built it

We hacked into off the shelf radio modules that work on 2.4Ghz. We also built an android app to interface with the beacon. Technologies Used : Zigbee, Blockchain, Android.

Challenges I ran into

Reducing the cost of the beacon with good life was a difficult challenge.

What's next for Submission 1

Commit for beacon broadcasting.
