Story

What is the first challenge after you landed from a red-eye flight, noisy passengers and cannot sleep well?

That's the baggage claim, very often we have to wait and keep focusing the baggage carousel for our baggage, those maybe of similar size and color, with hundreds of people waiting just same as you.

So, as per my idea submitted earlier, "Where's my baggage", I created this project based on Hexiwear in order to track our baggage by our phone.

However, I latter realize battery has to be uninstalled for checked baggage... so I transformed it as track anything device.

The building of this project is simple contains two main components:

A) Hexiwear which enable Bluetooth only when motion detected (Thanks to various sensor available)

B) Smartphone app which detect the Bluetooth signal and notify us

To build my Hexiwear binary, I used https://developer.mbed.org which save me some time to setup the SDK. :)

1) Go to https://developer.mbed.org

2) Register or sign in to your account

3) Create you own project using Wizard or import an example project.

(In my case, I am based on Hexi_BLE_Example)

4) Paste my code on coding section and click "Compile"

5) The project is built and browser will prompt a .bin file to be downloaded.

6) connect Hexiwear docking station to your PC, power on, save the .bin file directly to the USB drive (DAPLINK).

7) Press the reset button for MK64 (on the left, close to the USB connector) to apply the new .bin file

8) Press "Auto" to toggle Bluetooth when motion detected.

9) Drop it into your baggage (or any thing you want to track), so when the baggage is coming out of the baggage carousel, any movement/vibration will toggle the Bluetooth so your smartphone will be alarmed.

Enjoy!
