Tag, is a small BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) device designed to be used in conjunction with a smartphone. It engenders users to secure their belongings as well as send distress signals to their emergency contacts. The form-factor of Tag is such that it can be attached easily to the keychain or stick to any of the numerous personal effects a user carries in their everyday life e.g. briefcases, backpacks, bikes, wallets, laptops and even pets. The BLE device piggybacks on the phone’s GPS system to upload a tagged item’s location to the cloud. This allows users to track their belonging in real-time from any phone/desktop that they have access to, leverage the crowd-GPS network for Tag to find a stolen/lost item and have the peace of mind that their emergency contacts get immediate alerts incase they are in distress.

Astronics Test Systems creates test systems for a wide variety of electronics equipment, including avionics, microchips, and healthcare equipment, which in turn generate large amounts of data from a myriad of sensors. Astronics therefore required a web-based dashboard that shows only the readings the user is interested in, arranged in a manner of their own choosing, that shows the current readings in real time. Our project, the Astronics ActivATE Dashboard, delivers to users the data they want, how they want it, wherever they are, in real time.
