Find My Stuff

German Scientists of  Ulm University, Developed a New App Called Find My Stuff to Find Lost Things which facilitates tracing the lost items such as keys and wallets in just a few seconds. Florian Schaub is the creator of this application.

Find My Stuff allows a user to just type the name of the thing that they have lost in the app which is just like Google. The network of tiny sensors is placed on the valuables, around the home or within the furniture. The application will work owing to these sensors. Therefore, in case a user asks where the keys are, the app will answer, behind the sofa cushions.
