Open Source Contact Tracing

We are creating a contact tracing system. We have the following goals

1) Allow multiple vendors to operate in an interchangeable way
2) Ensure that the privacy of individuals are safe guarded
3) Allow different form factor devices to be developed
4) Provide a Trace Log for knowing when people come in contact with each other
5) Establish an approximate distance between contacts
6) Establish a length of time between contacts
7) Work up to 6m in range
8) Be low powered so that the standard can be implemented on small devices
9) Allow for the rapid containment of contagious diseases
10) Provide scientists and government useful information about disease progression

We are looking to complete the standard, develop reference source code and a very low cost reference hardware platform. This can then be used to build a global system with different countries and vendors working inter operatively to contain and manage pandemics (include COVID19).
