alert messages
Inspiration
In Stranger Things, danger in the Upside Down is sensed through environmental changes rather than direct sight. We were inspired by this idea and wanted to build a system that could detect those subtle signs early and help people react before it’s too late.
What it does
Upsidometer monitors temperature, air quality, and sound to detect abnormal environmental conditions linked to Vecna’s presence. It converts this data into a real-time danger level, triggers visual alerts on the screen, and plays music when the user is in serious danger to help them escape.
How we built it
We used multiple sensors to collect real-time data, processed each input to detect anomalies, and combined them into a single danger index. This index is displayed visually through the Upsidometer and controls alerts like screen flashes and music playback. We used react, node, express,typescript to make this.
Challenges we ran into
The main challenge was balancing sensitivity and accuracy while avoiding false alerts from normal environmental changes.It was difficult to integrate the Gemini Api Chatbot. It was also a challenge to integrate the music when the danger was critical.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The successful integration of Gemini Api Chatbot, inclusion of music when the person is in critical danger, real time sensor reading such as audio, temperature and air quality index. ALso very proud
What we learned
Learned how to integrate Gemini Api Chatbot. Learned how to compute real time values using sensors.We learned the importance of sensor fusion, real-time data processing, and designing systems that are easy to understand during high-stress situations.
What's next for Upside down survival
Next, we plan to improve accuracy with adaptive thresholds, add more sensors, and expand the system into a portable or wearable solution for continuous protection.
