BBH Koffer

This is an IoT suitcase, built together with students from the GGS St. Jürgen school and the Buddenbrookhaus museum in Lübeck, Germany, for the exhibition "Fremde Heimat".

Basically we have different items in which we embedded Estimote Beacons and a suitcase that's positioned above a Bluetooth antenna. The backend checks whether the items are visible and sends IN and OUT events to the client connected via SSE. Theres another beacon in the case's lid to detect open/close events. The client then displays the currently visible items and presents a little text for each of them. On closing the lid it increments each item's statistics counter and shows a little bar chart about how many other people found this item usefull as well.

The backend is a node.js application, frontend is written in Elm.
