Do
you find it annoying that you have to bring your License with you everywhere
you go? Or that occasional feeling of getting
in you car and realizing you forgot it, so you had to turn back around? Well
you aren’t alone. Many people constantly forget their license on a day-to-day basis
and it can be a pain. These days technology is evolving in so many different ways
and aspects. As time goes on, our electronics can do more and more. Today the modern day cell phone can run some
of the same programs as a computer. It
is this reason why such applications such as Li2go will be able to function.
Ever
thought of your license on your phone? Well soon that will be possible. For
those who are just reading the blog, license to go also known, as Li2go is an application that keeps your license within your
fingertips. It's meant to prevent any inconvenience a license may bring. Say a
father rushed to pick his child up from school, but forgot his ID. Instead of
panicking, he opened Li2go on his smartphone and everything was okay. This application has evolved in many ways throughout
this semester, but it’s finally at a point where it could be considered presentable.
In
order to make Li2go what it is today at first developing an idea for an
application was the challenging part. I felt like there were endless amounts of
options to choose from but none of them felt right. After days and hours of
thinking of ideas I asked myself, what is something that would make ones life
easier that they often leave behind? At first I thought keys, and then a cell phone
but realized one would just end up failing, and I cannot re-create another find
my IPhone. So after coming up with Li2go
during the semester the idea evolved in a few ways. I ended up switching the amount
of cellphones to license ratio, decided what security measures the application
will use, and how it will function on other operating systems such as
Blackberry and Windows. The next big application, Li2go is almost a finished product.
Everyday
a new application is created for some kind of smartphone. The people who come up with ideas also spend
many hours and weeks trying to create the best application. Just like Li2go after weeks of preparation I
finally thought of possible ideas in order to make this application a reality. The first step has already been completed,
coming up with my idea. The second step is to reach out to mobile app developers. These are people who have previously made
tons of apps and with their connections they could help me reach out to possible
funders and other necessary connections I may need. My third step is to reach out. Because my
application deals with licenses I will have to get in contact with DMV’s across
the country and have them create licenses with barcodes and RFID’s. This way the phones will be able to be read
and scan the ID’s. Last but not least,
because this deals with security I may have to get this passed by the government
so I will compose a letter on my idea and hope for the best.
Overall
this has been such a thought-provoking project. I plan on being an entrepreneur
and creating applications similar to Li2go. I cannot wait until it actually happens if
everything works out as planned. Overall
Li2go is a revolutionary application and it will help millions of people never
forget something so important to their everyday life. Just remember Li2go is the way to go.
I really love this idea because I too, am a victim of constantly forgetting my license! The only query I have with this is this: Would people be able use this to purchase items such as alcohol? And if so, wouldn't it be easy to hack your own license and change the information?
