Abstract

Social distancing has gotten into the light, it refers to the practice of keeping a safe distance (usually at least 6 feet) between individuals to reduce the spread of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. We have seen the situation in the country and the world due to the contagious spread of COVID in 2020-2022. We have also seen the importance and impact simple practices like social distancing have brought. This calls for a smart solution through which safety is maximized. Overall, the problem statement of a Social Distancing ID card is to detect any human in its range and avoid contact by alerting them. It is made of basic components like Arduino Nano, a buzzer, an infrared sensor, an LED, and a battery. The paper further describes how all these are used, how the flow and working of the said device is how it can be implemented on various individual and social level to protect people from airborne diseases and reduce the effects of upcoming pandemics and viral infections
