SOLUTION OVERVIEW: give a brief overview of the technological solution you intend to create

An app that actively checks up on the user, and reaches out for the user’s friends with user’s location if the user fails to complete task with her normal response time, stays unresponsive or leaving the preset safe area.

AUDIENCE: who is the intended audience for your solution? Be detailed (i.e., “CHIMEApp will target 12-18 year old women in India…”)

Our app will target girls and women who could be alone when they are inebriated at parties/bars, with friends contacts nearby.

WHY IS THIS SOLUTION UNIQUE? The current apps for drink safety require active attention from the user, such as measuring the BAC level by letting user manually inputs number of shots consumed, or press help button to reach out. Such design can be unrealistic if the user is too inebriated to have the thoughts of using the app. Our solution reaches out to the user, instead of the other way around, to ensure a better party experience, and increase the accuracy for detecting the user’s condition.
