(Project) Sharing Square - a privacy-first IoT platform
For a university project, I led a five-person team over a period of five months to design and build Sharing Square, a privacy-first IoT platform for securely crowdsourcing health, environmental, and smart city data. Our main goal was to advance open science by creating an autonomous system that lets people share their data with researchers while keeping the entire process strictly private, accountable, and traceable.
To make this work in the real world, we built out a full technical ecosystem from scratch. This included a web platform, a mobile app, a scalable API backend, and a robust database infrastructure designed to handle continuous data streams. I personally focused on building the web platform, mobile app, integrating it with the backend, and setting up an LLM integration to help process and interact with the data more effectively.
