Serendipity

Serendipity is a mode of physically connecting two strangers who match in terms of proximity and interests. It is a cell phone application in which the phone itself is the transmitting identification device which not only relays information, but also receives it. Serendipity consists of a central server containing an individual’s profile. When BTID in the users cell phone senses another BTID, the phone queries a database for a user’s profile associated with that discovered BTID address. If the profile exists, another script calculates a similar score between the two strangers and if this score is above both users set thresholds, the script returns the commonalities, along with additional contact information, back to the respected phones. .......................................................................................................................................................................................................... ..........................................................................................................................................................................................................
