Project Title<\/strong> – Safeband<\/p>\n

Project Team Members<\/strong> – Eric Freitas and Victor Tavares<\/p>\n

Description of what you are going to do<\/strong>\u00a0– We want to build a wristband that allows the user to send messages in times of emergency. The wristband will connect to the user’s smartphone and by presenting a number of conditions and effects it will be able to send messages for help when something happens.<\/p>\n

Concept Art<\/strong>\u00a0–<\/p>\n

\"mockup\"\u00a0\u00a0\"contact<\/p>\n

Description of what inspired this project<\/strong>\u00a0– There are\u00a0already some improvements on security and awareness when you are on the streets, but when\u00a0something like a car accident happens you need to receive help immediately and by sending messages to your family and to emergency numbers you will be able to receive the needed help sooner. There is a project in which they have put sensors on a hair clip and when sudden movements happened it would trigger the alarm and warn family and authorities, this project seems similar, but we think that a wristband is usable by both men and women and also that being able to customize the messages and who receives it is a major feature.<\/p>\n

Description of Materials you plan to use along with the costs for these materials<\/strong>\u00a0–<\/p>\n

Small Arduino board – US$10,00
\nBluetooth shield – US$25,00
\nPulse sensor – US$30,00
\nRGB LED – US$8,00
\nButton – US$1,50
\nBattery – US$2,00<\/p>\n

Steps\/Timeline<\/strong>\u00a0–
\n1st Week<\/em> – Buy materials\u00a0and see\u00a0Bluetooth Communications
\n2nd Week<\/em> – Work on send email
\n3rd Week<\/em> – Design the app
\n4th Week<\/em> – Work on vital sensors
\n5th Week<\/em> – Testing and Debugging
\n6th Week<\/em> – Final fixes<\/p>\n

Backup Plans \/ Fallback plans<\/strong>\u00a0– To use the last two weeks to test it thoroughly and, if needed, to simplify the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
