The Corona-Tracer is a proximity sensor which will detect if a person is engaging with another person within about 2 meter, 6 feet in the US.
If so, a unique code is exchanged between the two devices which accounts for one event.
If the two (or more) persons stay in this position for a longer period of time, every 10 seconds a new event will be generated and stored in the devices.
No, the Corona-Tracer is not waterproof and must be worn under a jacket or other coverage when the worker has activities outside and in the rain.
The system is targeted towards business use in factories, warehouses, distribution centers, hospitals, offices and the like.
The device is not meant to be used by consumers in the public space.
The Corona-Tracer is programmed so that the Bluetooth signal only travels around 2 meter, 6 feet in the US.
It sends its ID and then listens to the surroundings also in this 2-meter range.
When a co-worker with a Corona-Tracer is within range, they exchange the unique IDs and these are stored in memory.

The Corona-Trace uses Bluetooth wireless technology which is 2.4Ghz.
This is the same frequency as WiFi.
Radio waves are electro-magnetic waves, just like light, but much less intense.
These wireless signals are everywhere and there is no scientific data that it can cause cancer.
The Corona-Tracer does not make any sound when in contact within 2 meters, 6 feet in the US of another Corona-Tracer.
The minimum lifetime is 6 months in full operation, with about 16 active hours / day.
It is not possible to change the battery, as it is encapsulated in the device.
If a battery life ends, or the battery malfunctions, the tracer unit will need to be replaced.
We can refurbish unites that are sent back, for which we can give a discount for replacement units.
The system uses Bluetooth to transmit and receive signals.
No GPS and no location information is used and stored.
