SOCIAL DISTANCING APP
Abstract
Social distancing is a recommended solution by the World Health Organization (WHO) to minimize the spread of COVID-19 in public places. The majority of governments and national health authorities have set the 2-m physical distancing as a mandatory safety measure in shopping centers, schools and other covered areas. Social distancing, also called “physical distancing,” means keeping a safe space between yourself and other people who are not from your household.
To practice social or physical distancing, stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arm lengths) from other people who are not from your household in both indoor and outdoor spaces.
Social distancing should be practiced in combination with other everyday preventive actions to reduce the spread of COVID-19, including wearing masks, avoiding touching your face with unwashed hands, and frequently washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
So in this project, we develop an application that maintains social distance. In this we use latitude and longitude concept to catch specific locations, and by using generate an alarm we can maintain the distance.
