Inspiration

Goal setting and productivity:

  • It’s hard to understand your goals without being able to visualize them
  • Many struggle to find motivation to continue to strive for their goals
  • Lack of long-term vision

And the most important thing: it’s hard to find fun in organizing your goals It’s hard to keep in sight what your dream might be—especially if it feels as far as the sun! Visualization is a proven technique for helping people achieve their goals.

What it does

Helps Procrastonauts:

  • people who get stuck on the small stuff (and fall down rabbit holes)
  • people with task paralysis (don't know where to start)
  • people who fear the to-do list (achieving your dreams should be fun!)

by keeping track over the overarching goal with small step milestones along the way --> the largest star amongst the galaxy of steps, through positive reinforcement and affirmations and keeping it grounded in reality -- taking baby steps here.

How we built it

We used 8th Wall and A-Frame to create this WebAR application, as well as Blender to create the 3d models.

Challenges we ran into

  • None of us had used 8th Wall or A-Frame before
  • First in person hackathon
  • We've never worked together before
  • Getting the animations to work on 8th Wall

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Putting it all together in this limited time
  • Creating cool 3D models + animations
  • Learning new softwares (8th Wall and A-Frame)
  • creating a pretty cool AR app!

What we learned

  • How to work with AR and 8th wall and A-Frame
  • Importance of communication
  • Time management and the importance of sleep
  • A bunch of space puns & facts

What's next for Chasing Stars

  • Collaborative galaxies
  • Friendly competition with your besties
  • Multiple galaxies (or the multi-verse??)
  • Crowd-sourced affirmations
