Project Ideas

Business

Small Contractor Asset Tracking Setup

Offer a service to tag tools, job boxes, and materials for local contractors. You handle pairing to Site Manager, asset naming, crew assignments, and periodic audits. Use LEDs for on-site finds and “last seen” reports to reduce loss and idle time. Upsell Construction Asset Gateways for yards and trailers.


Event Rental Loss Prevention

Bundle tags with AV gear, tents, cables, and decor. Staff scan QR codes for check-in/out, use LEDs to locate small items during teardown, and consult “last seen” to recover misplaced pieces. Sell it as a shrinkage-reduction add-on to rental contracts.


Pallet and Material Assurance for Fabricators

Attach tags to outgoing pallets and high-value materials. Provide customers with proof-of-handoff via timestamped “last seen” logs and place gateways at docks to capture movements automatically. Market it as a low-cost chain-of-custody layer without full GPS fees.


Mobile Service Van Inventory Control

Equip technicians’ vans with tagged cases and small tools. Daily LED sweeps prevent leaving items at jobs, while the app shows “last seen” to retrieve forgotten gear. Offer onboarding, label printing, and monthly variance reports to reduce shrink and truck-roll delays.


Tool Library/Co-op Accountability Package

Implement tagging for municipal or community tool libraries. Each tool’s QR links to borrower instructions and safety sheets; staff use “last seen” to track returns and the LED to speed shelf locating. Charge for system setup, training, and ongoing asset audits.

Creative

Neighborhood Bluetooth Scavenger Hunt

Create a family-friendly hunt by hiding 25 tagged props around a park. Participants use the Site Manager app to get “last seen” hints and trigger the blinking blue LED when they’re in range. Each prop’s QR code reveals the next clue or a riddle, and the IP68 rating lets you run it rain or shine.


Interactive Art Crawl

Attach tags to pop-up art pieces across a downtown route. Visitors scan the QR code on each piece to log their visit and unlock artist stories. A public dashboard shows the “last seen” locations, while volunteers use the LED to quickly find and reposition pieces between stops.


DIY Escape Room Props

Embed tags in key objects and lockboxes. When players solve a puzzle and get close, the blinking LED helps confirm the correct prop. Scanning the QR code can reveal hints or trigger timed clues, and staff use the app’s “last seen” to reset rooms fast between sessions.


Club Gear Kit Organizer

Outfit a school maker club or scout troop’s 25-bin kit with tags. Each bin’s QR links to build guides or safety checklists, and the LED makes end-of-meeting sweeps quick. The app’s “last seen” screen helps leaders confirm nothing was left in classrooms or vehicles.


Outdoor Geocache Series

Build a 25-cache trail with weatherproof enclosures. Each cache is tagged for maintenance and recovery; QR codes unlock lore and map coordinates to the next cache. Organizers use the Site Manager “last seen” to find missing caches after storms and the LED to pinpoint them in brush.
