Zaigo Infotech’s Web & Mobile App for Advanced Aquatic Alertness

About the Client

Shock Alert's primary motive is to promote the message that it is imperative to avoid swimming near docks or marinas with electrical usage and to emphasize the importance of checking the water for any electrical current in the event of a person or pet accidentally falling in. The business of Shock Alert is committed to spreading awareness and ensuring the safety of everyone in and around the water.

Business Background

Every year in the United States, an unknown number of deaths occur due to the invisible electrical presence in water, resulting in Electric Shock Drowning (ESD). This phenomenon happens when AC voltage present in water passes through the body. Even a low level of voltage can cause skeletal muscular paralysis, rendering the victim helpless and eventually resulting in drowning. Furthermore, it is evident that children are the primary victims of ESD.

Electricity may be introduced to water in a variety of ways, including improperly wired pumps, boats, lighting, improperly grounded wires, or stray current in the ground. The presence of electrical voltage in water is invisible, so it is crucial that water always be checked for voltage before swimming, and this is where Shock Alert plays a critical role.

Shock Alert is a Bluetooth-based IoT device that operates with the help of sensors to detect the presence of electrical energy in the water. The Shock Alert device detects these readings and then sends them via Bluetooth to a mobile device, allowing users to easily identify electrical presence in the water and be more cautious when attempting to swim.

Goal

During our discovery meeting, we aligned on the product vision and the business’s goals for building the mobile and web applications. The objectives for the project included:

• Device Registration and Account Activation

  Users can activate the physical device using the mobile app.
  

• Automated Device Activation

  For security reasons, the device is locked by default, and securely automating its activation was crucial.
  

• Fetching Electrical Readings

  The app communicates with the Shock Alert device to retrieve and display data in the mobile dashboard.
  

• Offline Functionality

  Ensuring the app operates without internet connectivity, displaying the required data.
  

• Graphical Data Representation

  Visualizing electrical readings in a user-friendly format for easy interpretation with past historic data.
  

• Alert Levels Based on Electrical Intensity

  The app needs to display different alert levels depending on the intensity of electrical presence in water.
  

• Subscription Management

  Facilitating subscription, renewals, and payment processes for app users.
  

• Location Tracking and Historic Data

  Capturing and storing user location and session data for insights and safety tracking.
  

Project Timeline

The whole project’s timeline was up to 3 months.

Challenge

During the development of the application, Zaigo Infotech faced the following challenge: Automated activation of the devices using Bluetooth. Ensuring secure and seamless activation while maintaining user experience required intelligent backend logic and precise Bluetooth integration.
