Fainderi

Inspiration

Every year thousands of people get lost and buried under buildings because of earthquakes. What if there was a easy and cheap way to find those victims in time? A 10€ BLE sticker and any smartphone can do it.

What it does

Uses smartphone app to search for BLE-based cheap, 10€ stickers sewn into one thing every person wears - their shirts.

How I built it

We used Evothings to have a prototype up and running in 48 hours.

Challenges I ran into

Battery life of BLE-equipment - 2 years. Wireless charging in the future? One charger for every village in poorer regions?

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Good distance measuring even in bad reception conditions
