ERIC - Emergency Readiness In a Case

You never know when disaster might strike

Ready.gov defines more than 25 types of disasters and emergencies, including:

• earthquakes
• hurricanes
• space weather
• volcanoes

In the event of a disaster or emergency, it is of utmost importance to Have A Plan.

I want to help you to have a plan.

Introducing, ERIC.

What is ERIC?

• ERIC stands for "Emergency Readiness In a Case" and it is will be exactly close to what it sounds like.
• ERIC is fundamentally a RaspberryPi in a box.
• There have been several projects like this over the years, but I wanted to create something specifically based on one concept: emergency and disaster preparedness

Is ERIC for sale?

• No! This is a DIY project.
• All of the parts in this project are commonlyy available. You can (and should!) feel free to modify the ERIC template to fit your specific needs.
• I shall be documenting the progress of this project every step of the way.

Where is ERIC?

• ERIC began development on 2023-10-29.
• This is a brand-new project, and I shall be updating it as I have time to work on it.
• My goal is to have a functional prototype sometime in mid-to-late-November, 2023.

Goals

1. Finish this project.
2. Help others to try and remain safe during an emergency or disaster.
