The Project
NeverLate is a smartwatch that, as a main feature, has to notify the user when he has to head out to his next lesson.
The system will calculate the right time for the notifications according to:
- user position inside the campus
- user lecture schedule (time and place)
- estimated time to reach the destination, obtained by collecting and processing data from all the users of NeverLate
- professor notification during breaks or schedule updates (see later on to know what the system is able to do from the professor side)
- personal user settings
Furthermore, if the user wants to know how much time he has left before he has to move, he can press a button on the watch and NeverLate will answer! Extended interface to set up and/or customize the service will be provided as a simple website.
Additional tools are available in a "professor" version of NeverLate. The professor will be also able to "ping" his students when he's planning to start the lecture (now, in 5 minutes... ) just with the smartwatch. Moreover, in the NeverLate calendar, he can also modify temporarily his lecture schedule and the system will automatically adapt students notifications according to it.
