Inspiration
It is very hard to find someone in big events and navigation inside a room would be very usefull
What it does
It is an networking app which allows to search for people and navigate through the room to find them
How I built it
We used couple of raspberry pies to act as stationary bluetooth anchors and using signal strength determine where you are
Challenges I ran into
Internet connection, bluetooth libraries in different platforms and different versions
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
It is working (socket server, location estimation, bluetooth hell)
What I learned
How to hack bluetooth
What's next for Texi
add casting information to inform people that you are looking someone and for people to search what is in the event. also add wifi signal to provide better estimate.
