Abstract

In this study, the researchers developed 2 wearable hardware that utilizes Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense as it’s microcontroller in the implementation of social distancing and contact tracing with an application and database. The application provides an indicator for risk status, notifications for social distancing if the two devices are within 100 cm of each other. The two devices were calibrated at a displacement value of 1 m and yielded a RSSI value of −69 dBm for device 1 and −67 dBm for device 2 respectively. The database also provides a manual override for the risk status that is displayed in the graphical user interface in the instances of human error.
