Today was AGoodDay[tm]! Just finished the initial schematic and PCB layout for the new GNSS (GPS) add-on board for the @HeraldProximity V1 wearable! First time using KiCAD in anger and I think I'm addicted! 🤣 Designs on the WIP feature branch: github.com/adamfowleruk/h…


A much better Open Source day today! Managed to get an Estimote 117 beacon reprogrammed with the @HeraldProximity Venue Beacon app. Programming jig was a big scary though! See attached. Shout out to @openuk_uk too! ❤️

@evacide Yet another good reason to promote and adopt open source hardware like we create in @HeraldProximity . Ours isn’t for implants, rather wearables, but the principles are the same. Multiple vendors can adopt the same core hardware. Reduces development and compliance costs, & risks.




@mit's Lincoln Lab @MITLL have released a report I've much anticipated, and also contributed too (as a rep of @LFPubHealth and @HeraldProximity ). It covers a LOT of detail on COVID-19 Digital Contact Tracing / Exposure Notification efforts. A must read: dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/…






A new preview version of the @HeraldProximity API for iOS is now available! v2.1.0-beta2! You can grab the CocoaPod here: cocoapods.org/pods/Herald or view the release notes here: github.com/theheraldproje…
