Project Proposal  #2

Title:                                                           Cell Finder

Description:

A detector, locator, and alerter of cellular phones

Objectives:

To detect and determine the location of a cell phone entering an area

To create an alert system for cell phone detection

To show how it would be possible to pinpoint a cell phone in an area with three detectors

Specifications:

Detectors to cover a minimum six door (19 ft) entry system to at least ±10 ft from entry

Determine which door the phone is coming through

Alert Options: Silent Alert (door number), Alarm sound, No Alert
