COMALERT BEACON
Survival Product for U.S.T. | 4 Months | Sep-Dec 2022
This project focuses on designing a survival product for a natural disaster.
During tsunamis, limited resources prevent first responders from assisting everyone, increasing casualties.
Comalert is a beacon designed for U.S.T. to alert and guide people in tsunami-prone areas, using intuitive communication and haptic feedback to reduce casualties and provide security.
