ELDERBERRY

ELDERBERRY - five minutes for you, but so sweet for them...

Inspiration

Worried about the increase of elderly loneliness, and the risks associated with it, we were inspired to create an application that motivated relatives to stay in touch and keep elders stimulated.

What it does

ELDERBERRY combines Dialogue, Interactive Gaming, Synchronized Content Digestion and Coordination features, in an easy to use application, helping our elders stay mentally active and in-touch with family members.

How we built it

Java and Googles Firebase

Challenges we ran into

Too many ideas...not enough time!
Building a real-time messaging app is quite a doozy!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of our app idea, and all the research-based features we came up with. Although we were not able to finish all of our features, we are proud of our secure-ID login and messaging system, as well as our real-time messaging platform built with Googles Firebase database.

What we learned

Java
Googles Firebase
Real-time messaging
Creating login/registration pages

What's next for ELDERBERRY

We hope to finish the features we dreamed ELBERBERRY would have. We believe in ELDERBERRY and the positive impact it can have on combatting elderly loneliness.
