The problem Blood - Link solves

The platform addresses the critical issue of blood shortages by creating a seamless connection between blood donors and those in need. It simplifies the donation process, making it more accessible and efficient. The platform also leverages predictive analytics to anticipate blood demand, ensuring timely donations and reducing shortages. Additionally, it fosters community engagement by encouraging users to participate in blood donation drives and share the cause, thus broadening the donor base and increasing overall donations. This comprehensive approach not only saves lives but also improves the efficiency of blood collection and distribution.

Challenges we ran into

During the development of our blood donation platform, we encountered several challenges. Integrating with a machine learning model was complex, requiring careful alignment with our data pipelines. Network connection issues also posed difficulties, particularly in ensuring real-time updates and notifications. Additionally, integrating the login system with Firebase required addressing authentication and data security concerns. Finding the shortest path for blood collection and delivery was another critical challenge, necessitating the implementation of efficient algorithms to optimize routes. Despite these hurdles, we successfully resolved each issue, ensuring the platform's seamless operation.
