Team 4 - Getting Huge

The final project that we’ve decided on is a weightlifting sensor. The sensor will attach and lock onto a piece of fitness equipment. It will use two accelerometers to track position in the z and x directions. The device will communicate with a mobile app via nRF technology. This technology would have significant use cases in fitness. It would track reps, as well as recording key metrics about acceleration and pause times during a rep. This information is crucial for lifters trying to optimize their performance. Additionally, the 2 dimensional tracking will allow the device to be viable in movements with different directions (traditional barbell lifts are performed directly up and down, whereas many machine lifts require diagonal movement). It would also allow users to analyze bar path, a crucial variable for ensuring the safety of a lifter. Of course, due to the nature of the use, it is imperative that the device be as lightweight as possible. Components requierd:

• One ESP-32
• One MPU-6050 (accelerometer)
