COVID-19 Economic Tracking and Assistance System (CETAS)

ABSTRACT

Amidst the current pandemic situation which has been going on for a significant period of time now, although vast numbers of people are safe in their homes, this crisis has rendered millions of people unemployed, mainly the daily wage labourers, etc., who are now struggling with not only the gravity of the coronavirus but also with hunger and unemployment. We are witnessing a rich and poor divide that has crossed boundaries that were never explored before. We are all aware of the hardships of the people who are daily struggling just to manage a day’s food for their family, and so as responsible engineers, we plan to develop an Android application which aims on directing financial aid to those who are actually needy by gathering funds from millions of donors across the nation who share the same ideology and wish to help these people out but are unable due to the pandemic related restrictions. People who are deserving of this financial aid and also the people who wish to donate will be able to register themselves on the application, post which verification will be conducted for both the parties after which a designated amount of money will transferred to the needful directly. All cyber security protocols are aimed to be implemented so as there is no presence of any anomaly. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
