Using RFID technology, we're getting indoor localization data of the user. This system will give us the x and y coordinates of the user inside the school/workplace. Using this, we can guide the user to the nearest exit. This is better than GPS because we can get location data to an accuracy of 1 foot inside the room.

Below you can find a sample text file of how the data is received in a .txt file.

"items":[ { "epc":"111100000000000000000019", "tagId":"000000000000", "jobId":"ffa29f71-f0f9-426e-9ba4-45398361dc5d", "xLocation":6.3, "yLocation":9.2, "zLocation":0, "zone":"ZONE1", "facility":MESS, "presenceConfidence":"HIGH", "lastModifiedTime":"2016-02-23T00:38:42Z" }

Scrolled through the topics, brainstormed for the ideas and zeroed in on making an app which matches the criteria for more than one topics. We plan on using the RFID X-Array Readers and RFID tags as our hardware resources. The topics that we're planning to target are:

1. American Water - Active Shooter/Alert App
2. Linode Innovation Award
3. JPMorgan Chase - Best Hack for Social Good
4. Philly Codefest 2018 Best Hardware Hack
