Detailed Project Description
The app uses a Java programming language, to enter Healthy Shield the user must have an account or register, once the user has entered the main screen will be displayed with three modules:
• Vaccination: When registering, the user is asked to add their home address and indicate if they have the vaccine against covid-19, this address is used to verify the vaccination centers near the user; where the option of being able to make an appointment for the vaccine against covid-19 will be enabled if the case occurs that does not have said vaccine.
As well as showing a list in real time of the places that will carry out tests for Covid-19 by the Central Government.
• News: News session where the Covid-19 statistics are detailed worldwide
• Shield: What does it consist of? The shield module is responsible for reminding the user of the use of a mask, alcohol gel and social distancing, it is developed in 3 phases:
1. Facial recognition to verify the use of a mask: The user will be asked to access the camera to perform facial recognition and verify the use of a mask.
2. Proximity sensor: It will emit an alert when the proximity sensor detects crowds in a proximity of 3 meters.
3. Use of mask and alcohol gel: The user must confirm that they carry a mask and alcohol gel.
It is taken into account that the app will generate the alerts when it detects that the user is not at their registered address or location, it is not necessary for the cell phone to have mobile data to issue these alerts.
• Configuration: The user will be able to edit the information that has been registered.
With Healthy Shield, users are expected to become aware of the problems that the Covid-19 pandemic has generated and in this way put prevention measures into use to protect themselves against this disease.
Once the operation of Healthy Shield is clear, the question arises: What makes it different from the measures that the government of El Salvador has taken to remember the use of a mask, alcohol gel and vaccination?
Taking into account that the government of El Salvador has the following:
• Web page indicating the national situation of Covid-19
• Website to schedule an appointment for the covid-19 vaccine
• Reminder messages for the use of mask through the mobile
Healthy Shield is an integration of all these elements in a single application taking into account that you will have better control of the process that is carried out to schedule appointments, as well as personalized reminder messages and the function of holding crowds
