Undetectag, track stolen items with AirTag

I developed a device that turns an Airtag on and off at specific intervals. Current Airtags are detectable right away and cannot be used to track stolen property. That device allows you to hide an Airtag in your car, for example, and someone that steals your car will not be able to use some app to detect it. The Airtag will also not warn the thief of its presence. After some hours, the Airtag turns on again and you can find out its location. It’s not foolproof, as the timing has to be right, but still useful. What do you think?

In plain words

Undetectag is a device that controls when an AirTag broadcasts its signal by turning it on and off at set intervals. Designed for vehicle owners concerned about theft, it allows users to hide an AirTag in a car without it being immediately detectable by would-be thieves. The device delays activation so the thief won't receive warnings about the tracker's presence, then reactivates periodically to let owners locate their vehicle. The creator acknowledges the method isn't completely foolproof but offers a practical option for tracking stolen property.

  • Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243

    Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
