Sahaya

Sahaya aims to ease out the life of soldiers with the motive of making it easier for them to contact each other and the authorities via a reliable and cheap method.

The problem Sahaya solves

Sahaya is particularly aimed at solving some of the major issues an army person faces in a base camp.
The major solutions we are trying to add to this project are :

  1. Providing a system capable of allowing users to communicate using a Bluetooth-based mesh network at a time of no cellular network availability.
  2. Required person can update information like food, medical facility, etc., and accordingly forward the requests to authorities.
  3. Interface for the control room to monitor the soldier’s last position and movement when under network.

Challenges we ran into

We had the Bluetooth mesh networking prototype along with us in Python but because of time constraints and the rest backend built on NodeJS, It was not possible for us to implement it.
But with more time and focusing on Django we can develop it completely in coming time to revolutionize the communication system in Army base camps.
