PROBLEM STATEMENT There are many social platforms which support product/event publicity but none of them make use of the underlying context or information available about the event.There is currently a gap between the event organizers and the targeted audience. Many users tend to miss events happening around them as they are not active in any social platform or tend to forget about it when the event is actually happening. This is leading to a problem for the event organisers as they spend a lot of resources in its publicity but do not get the desired turn out. Likewise on the other hand the targeted users are missing out on many interesting stuff happening which they could have been a part of.

SOLUTIONThis project involves the design and development of an IOT enabled platform that would bridge the gap between event organizers and targeted audience by leveraging publish - subscribe model of the Google beacon platform. Our idea exploits the assumption that the user will be more prone to act towards the events happening around his current physical location. We aim to build Smart - Campus by placing multiple beacons in and around campus at strategic locations which would push events happening in the nearby locations when a user passes by. This platform would be beneficial for the organisers as well as the users.

USED TECHNOLOGY● Beacons : BLE devices installed in the campus to

gather location specific data.

● Smart-Campus App : Native Android application.

● Smart-Campus Cloud : A cloud based web-service containing the core services of our application along with the user-interface. Implemented using the Play Framework

● Prediction IO : We have used predictionIO packages to perform the task of Machine Learning in our project.

ARCHITECTURE

ASSETS

WHAT IS IMPLEMENTED ?› Advertizing of events based on user location › Beacon classification› Look at each event in detail and “star/unstar” an

event for reviewing later.› Recommendation tab to view the events

recommended by the App.

FUTURE WORK● Editing of created Events ● Text based search of events is not done● Improvising machine learning model● Collection of user activity data

BUSINESS MODELSOur app will be a Freemium app , we deliver our app to customers free of charge and generate revenue with the Freemium apps in the following way :In-App Purchases – Once event organisers are using our app, we provide them with chances to publish more than 5 events by purchasing an extra content packages within the app.Platform As a Service : Another business model would be on the lines of providing this as a Platform as a Service module ,our platform would be installed in specific locations and we would charge on a monthly basis for the services hosted. This would give us more control over the revenue module and generate high profits.
