# esp-ena
Implementation of contact tracing with the Covid-19 Exposure Notification API by Apple and Google on an ESP32 (with [ESP-IDF](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/index.html)).
More information about the Covid-19 Exposure Notification at [Apple](https://www.apple.com/covid19/contacttracing/) and [Google](https://www.google.com/covid19/exposurenotifications/). This is meant for people without smartphone or without smartphones with Apples/Googles implementation.
[Demo Video](https://twitter.com/Lurkars/status/1282223547579019264)
This implementation fully covers for the BLE part including the cryptography specifications needed (see Bluetooth Specifications and Cryptography Specifications documents in the links above):
* send beacons
* store TEKs on flash (last 14)
* receive beacons
* received beacons are stored after 5 minutes threshold (storage is limited, ~100k beacons can be stored)
Additional features for full ENA device
* calculating risks scores (after adding reported keys and storing exposure information)
* RTC support with DS3231
* display support with SSD1306
* interface to
* set time
Features missing for now are:
* retrieve infected list and parse from binary (started with binary parsing)
Extensions planned:
* interface to
* delete data
* show status
* report infection?
* receive infected beacons list (will test [Corona Warn App](https://github.com/corona-warn-app))
* send infected status (will test [Corona Warn App](https://github.com/corona-warn-app))
* battery support
* 3d print case
Limitations/Problems
* storage only ~2.8mb available
* WiFi or other external connection needed for infections status (auto-connect to open WiFis?)
* obtaining accessibility
* all parameters (scanning time, thresholds etc.)
The following acronyms will be used in code and comments:
* *ENA* Exposure Notification Api
* *ENIN* ENIntervalNumber - timestamp with 10 minutes resolution
* *TEK* Temporary Exposure Key - personal secret key changed every 24h, published when infected
* *RPI* Rolling Proximity Identifier - send and received identifer changed every 10 minutes
* *AEM* Associated Encrypted Metadata - send and received metadata
Open questions
* service UUID is send reversed, must RPI and AEM also beeing send in reverse? Don't know BLE specification enough
## How to use
### Hardware Required
For now just an ESP32 is required. For full device later RTC (DS3231) and Display (SSD1306) will be required.
### Configure the project
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
required
* enable bluetooth (BLE)
* add partition-table for storage (currently hardcoded name "ena")
* mbedTLS enable HKDF
recommended
* BLE *Scan Duplicate* (By Device Address and Advertising Data)
debug options
* Log output set to Debug
* Exposure Notification API / Storage enable *Dump storage*
### Build and Flash
May flash partition table:
```
idf.py partition_table-flash
```
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
```
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
```
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
## Troubleshooting
Sometimes I get errors from BT-stack of ESP-IDF printed. Didn't affect functionality for now, but I also could not find out what it caused and what it means.
```
E (909164) BT_HCI: btu_hcif_hdl_command_complete opcode 0x2005 status 0xc
```
## Structure
The project is divided in different components. The main.c just wrap up all components.
### ena
The ena module contains the main functions of eps-ena with bluetooth scanning and adverting, storing data and handle beacons.
* *ena-beacons* handles scanned data by storing temporary beacons, check for threshold and store beacons permanently
* *ena-crypto* covers cryptography part (key creation, encryption etc.)
* *ena-storage* storage part to store own TEKs and beacons
* *ena-bluetooth-scan* BLE scans for detecting other beacons
* *ena-bluetooth-advertise* BLE advertising to send own beacons
* *ena* run all together and timing for scanning and advertising
### ena-interface
Adds interface functionality via touch pads for control and setup.
### i2c-main
Just start I2C driver for display and RTC.
### ssd1306
I2C driver for a SSD1306 display.
