\

Product name: Wifi based Check in System

\

Summary:

\

We're making a check in system, which need zero user action to do the check in.

\

When a wifi based device, for example, your mobile phone is connecting with Wifi, there is some data generated.

\

To make use of those data, we can do some interesting thing, even magic!

\

We scan the Wifi, save the data from the office network, and log the device status on the network.

\

By long term analytics, we can generate the report of which device join or leave and when.

\

On the other hand, we can make full use of those data like controller the light and saving the power, controller the AirCon, and analytics the security of the wifi network.

\

中文简介:

\

我们利用wifi网络上的信息, 做无线的签到(比如员工上下班, 午饭时间等).

\

当一个wifi设备, 比如你的手机, 链接到公司wifi的时候, 实际上产生了一些数据. 这些数据可以被利用来做一些有意思的事情.

\

我们通过扫描wifi, 以及一些人工的命名, 来确定一些设备, 并且记录这些设备的状态.

\

长期来看, 这些数据可以用来创建一份报告, 记录这些设备加入和离开的时间. 而用户则完全不用做任何事情, 只要带着手机就可以了.

\

在其他方面, 我们可以用这样的技术来做一些其他的事情, 比如关灯, 节省能源, 控制空调的温度, 监控网络安全等.
