https://undetectag.com 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.
Make it timing based and randomized. Sync the 'seed' during device init, and then the listener knows when to listen for the airtag. The airtag then turns on for a specified duration (random between some min/max time), and the listener picks it up.
Due to its timing, the device is not suitable for stalking someone. Additionally, if you place it in someone's handbag, for instance, once the AirTag comes back online and the person starts moving, they will be alerted that the AirTag is tracking them.
